ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND | FIRST COUPLE REACTION to In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed | LEX ON AIR GUITAR!!

[@michelemichele3375]

Great job, guys. 👏🏼 Glad you appreciate the jam. This band is immortal - having many reincarnations, including their children growing into members. 😉 I’ve mourned the loss of Duane Allman for years - he was also a session musician and is heard playing on Layla with Eric Clapton and played with Aretha Franklin, Boz Scaggs, Wilson Pickett, etc. And we lost him at 24! Many more great rabbits 🐇 in this hole. Thanks so much for the great reaction …and the comments have been informative and enthusiastic 🤩. Thanks 😊

[@scottanderson8420]

Great request Michelle Michelle, this is one of my favorites the melody, the jam, the groove , the solos, all great. I used to listen to this for hours. Thanks for the request great to see them bouncing around on air bass guitar.

@Michele Michele Thanks again, MM, for your expert guidance! The ABB has been a big part of my musical life since 1969! You and I are definitely musical kindred spirits! Speaking of Spirit........."12 Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus" might be really good for later! See how easily I get sidetracked! And thanks again for guiding them back to Little Feat!!

I still get that same reaction and I’m 66 years old . ABB The greatest band ever .

[@frankrios9926]

I was in the audience two of the three nights they recoded this album. The musical vibes were some of the strongest I ever encountered in my live musical listenings ( and I even saw Hendrix live a few times ). I consider myself a very lucky guy. I'm 74 years old chronologically, but still feel mid-thirties.

Great choice of songs

I missed Fillmore - my first show was 73 at the Garden. I read years ago that at the end of one of the Fillmore shows - it was in the AM - and people just walked out very quietly as if they were walking out of mass at a church. Dramatic account - but accurate since you were there Frank???

I'm beyond jealous of you my friend!!

“Whipping post “ from the same album… you will never be the same after listening to it .. it is life changing..

[@beare55]

No pedals, no effects, just guitar playing at it's best, arguably one of the best bands, the original six Allman Brothers Band. First guitar solo, Dickey Betts, second guitar solo Duane Allman. Oh and there are two drummers

[@jazzzman8050]

Yes! And this is why we all wanted Les Pauls and Marshalls! 😁🎸👍

[@crimsonking70]

Well, there is volume pedal and judicious use of wah-wah. But hell yeah, long live the Allmans!

[@jazzzman8050]

@@crimsonking70 I don’t think so…volume swells are from the volume control on Bett’s guitar, moved with his pinky. A known, albeit difficult technique of the time. I don’t hear any wah wah anywhere on the Fillmore East album : )

[@jackndew2]

@@jazzzman8050 You're right, I can confirm no wah or volume pedal used by Duane or Dickie back in those days. For years I played in a Allman Bros. tribute band and we did extensive research on gear, technique and sound to get as close as we could in our live performances. Those volume swells are done exactly as you described, rolling the volume knob with his right hand pinky. If you listen close you can hear the times he hammers on the string instead of picking it.

[@beare55]

@@crimsonking70 no pedals, the volume swells at the beginning were done with the volume knob on the guitar, this was 1971

[@willmiddleton9199]

One of the most impressive live songs by arguably the very best live band of all time.... What a and of uber talented young guys. What blows my mind is that the oldest band member at the time of this recording was 24 years old - all the rest were 22 or 23. This is some of the all time best live music ever recorded and NOBODY did it better than the ABB. Live At Fillmore East is widely recognized as one of the top 2 best live albums of all time. I strongly recommend listening to the entire album....

[@samuelmregister]

You will never tire of this jam- I've heard this many 100's of times and it only gets more astounding. Arguably the greatest ever live rock recording.

[@robertcaldwell1547]

And that’s the truth too. I was 18 when this was recorded and am 70 now and just keep coming back to it. It is undoubtedly the greatest live performance of my lifetime.

[@adairmartin]

You two ought to react to Herbi Mann’s “Push Push”! Duane plays on it, too.

[@michaelstevens9332]

Two drummers, one in each ear, no pedals or effects on the guitars, wah wah pedals were just coming out and these guys were happy to use nothing but slides. Dickie Betts and Duane Allman on guitar, Gregg Allman on organ!

[@GaryStrange-s8k]

The greatest rhythm section period

[@albertsmith9315]

The Allman Brothers live at the Fillmore is always on every top 10 list of best live albums. This IS THE version to react to.

[@anamericaninrussia01]

Duane Allman is simply unparalleled to this day. I’ve been listening to this song for 40 years and still get the chills and weapy eyed listening to it.

[@salmuscles]

Dickey betts first solo.. Duane allman 2nd solo… berry oakley on bass … Gregg allman on organ and butch trucks and jaimo on drums ..all in there young 20’s … amazing

[@breakingdad8]

I could never understand the word "arguably" used when talking about this being the best live album. Released in 1971! The raw sound and perfection of this album will never be outdone. A masterpiece!

[@tommathews3964]

NOW you're talking! Thanks Nick and Lex, and thanks Michele Michele!! As a guitar player Nick, Fillmore should always be close at hand! Duane and Dickey perfectly complimented each other, and Berry was an absolute beast on bass! On a side note, as much as you guys like bass work, you have to catch Berry on the Allman's "Les Brers In A Minor" from the Eat a Peach album! Duane's slide work and his excellent tonal touches, sometimes made it hard to even believe you were listening to a guitar! Man, these guys were tight! The kind of tight that comes from living together and playing non stop! No crazy magic tricks, fireworks, costumes or BS, these guys just walked out, strapped it on, and got down! I was lucky enough to see them, in pretty much all forms, right up until the end in 2014. That final lineup with Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks on guitars and Oteil Burbridge on bass should not be missed either! I'm just gonna shut up now because I could talk about these guys for HOURS! You have so much to look forward to!

[@wicky4473]

Love the Eat A Peach Album!!

[@dardenbunn1415]

I used see the Brothers do this in the park in Macon back in 70. Every time they played Elizabeth Reed it was different. A different direction every time, but it was great every time also. I love that you young folks are getting off on the music I was into 55 years ago.

[@arnaldomontes5616]

I drove from San Francisco to Austin listening to this entire album. One of the best road-trips EVER!!!

[@beekay5914]

When the Brothers were getting things going with their band, Gregg said that they were going to be the "best goddamn band in the land." And they were-the best band in America in the early seventies.

[@Rickhorse1]

IMO, Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East is the greatest live album ever recorded. Both for the performance & for the sound quality (which was nowhere near this good on most live albums back then). Looking forward to you hearing the version of Whipping Post from this album, too. (Btw, Lex mentioned how improvised Eliz Reed sounded...when/if you listen to the studio version, you will hear just how faithful they were to it at Fillmore. Sure a bit of improv, but not nearly as much as you'd guess.)

[@shanefrancis368]

Mine fav as well

[@61hink]

They had to be one of the greatest live bands ever. I mean there's so much improvising but the band sounds so tight, always in step with each other.

[@michaellockhart554]

Song was written about a headstone in a cemetery in Macon GA where they were living at the time, they used to get high and hang out in the cemetary. Duane and Berry were buried there not too many years later an now Gregg is buried there too

May they all rest in Shalom and may their music and memories always bless us.

[@antarcticorb9197]

Bill Graham, the promoter who ran both Filmore East and West loved the Allman's, and would book them every chance he could.

[@myownchannel247]

There were only two guitars 🎸 Duane Allman and Dickey Betts’. Dual drummers Butch Trucks and Jaimoe were always both in every song they ever did. This song was penned by Dickey Betts while near a stream with his acoustic in hand and enjoying some herbal supplements saw an old gravestone with the name Elizabeth Reed on it and dedicated it to her ✌️

[@robhaunui3343]

Ummm,Butch and Jaimoe were not in every song The ABB ever did...in 1981 the ABB released "Brothers Of The Road" without Jaimoe on drums (there were personal reasons) and he was replaced by then 2nd guitarist "Dangerous" Dan Tolers brother David "Frankie" Toler on drums/percussion (but an absolute brilliant drummer,who eventually joined the Marshall Tucker Band in the late 80s)

[@aaroncole3941]

Nothing beats the festival vibe of live Allman brothers! Seen them 3 times and always such a happy environment.

[@peterconnelly9263]

Raymond Berry Oakley was formerly a lead guitar player before turning to playing Bass Guitar. In actuality he was the "3rd" lead guitarist for ABB!

[@allengardner4672]

The Allman Brothers had two drummers playing together. Daune Allman had saw James Brown using two drummers so that's why they had duel drummers

[@michaelescareno7048]

I was not at that show, but was fortunate to see their 3 1/2 show in 1976. The drum kit was divided into each channel because there were two drummers.

[@cohalensadventures5331]

In 2011 I went to Macon, Ga and saw the locations of where Duane & Berry had their motorcycle accidents - the Allman Brothers house; Duane's 1st apartment, the location for the first album cover; the location of Capricorn studios; the cemetary where Duane & Berry are buried side by side and the tombstones of two Elizabeth Reid's that were the inspiration for the song in Memory of Elizabeth Reed. (one tombstone is of a child that died less than a year after it was born (1925) , the other is the mother that died 1938

"Fillmore East" was recorded and produced by a guy whose career as a young physicist crashed and burned because, having participated in the Manhattan Project, he could not go back to school and tell his professors they were wrong (because it was classified information). So he became the guy who recorded John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman, Thelonious Monk and Charlie Parker. And then Eddie Money, Bee Gees, Eric Clapton, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Black Oak Arkansas, Derek and the Dominos, Rod Stewart, Wishbone Ash, New Model Army, Cream, Lulu, Chicago, the Allman Brothers Band, Joe Bonamassa, the J. Geils Band, Meat Loaf, Sonny & Cher, the Rascals, The Spinners, Willie Nelson, Diana Ross, Eagles, the Four Seasons, Kenny Loggins, James Gang, Dusty Springfield, Eddie Harris, Charles Mingus, Herbie Mann, Booker T. & the M.G.'s, Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin, Ronnie Earl, Joe Castro and Primal Scream. Look up "Tom Dowd & the Language of Music"

Bought Live at Fillmore East when it came out in 71. By 75 it was so worn out I had to buy a another copy! Still have it today. Best live recording of its time, hand down.

[@cohalensadventures5331]

The trade offs between Duane & Dickie are epic. They complemented each other so well - Duane's slide work and Dickie's staccato work. They could read each other's minds back then! That was their magic.

The first time I heard this album was on 8-track tape the day I saw them play at The Manhattan Centre August 18, 1971 NYC. Incredible concert and the first time they played “Blue Sky” live. Great memory, without a doubt the finest dual guitar band I ever got to see live.

@@dalewilson5167 Yes, that might be true for a lot of people actually. When live albums were first becoming big ,I always thought of them as sloppy versions of the original studio tracks (4way street/ CSN&Y for example) but the live version of Santana's Soul sacrifice from Woodstock was incredible ! I think it comes down to choice really and who the artist is. Just saw James Taylor this year and he was that good it sounded like it was straight from the studio ..............Peace & Love

Sooo disappointed at how they butchered their own music. Speaking of Santana, check out their version of Soul Sacrifice from Tanglewood. Even better than Woodstock. Another artist who's live is better than studio is Weird Al Yankovic and he is on tour right now. Thanks for the words & peace to you.

Eastown Theater, June 1971, J.Geils band, and The Allman Brothers band. One of the best double bills I've ever seen. BTW, Dickey Betts was the first guitar solo, Duane Allman, the second guitar solo. 4 months later Duane died, and I'm still in mourning.

[@dougj7295]

Great comment on the video vs the no video. There is a whipping post video version of Fillmore East which is shorter and not as good as the same night when they did Whipping Post on the album you are listening to now for In Memory of Elizabeth Reed - you would enjoy the live album version from this "magical night" much more.

[@CaryOn11]

Now you're cooking with gas! In other words it gets hot fast! That is an Allman Bros show. I was 14 years old in 1970 when I saw them play at Pirates World in Dania Florida and they say it was a done deal. Since that day forward I seized every opportunity to see them perform that i could. Always an excellent show. They were just one of those bands as evidenced by this Fillmore release that could play their asses off. What is truly astounding is at the time of this recording these musicians were in their early 20's. They already had that ability to play tightly as an ensemble and make it swagger so it sounded loose. They took the blues, rocked em up some, jazzed em up some and jammed it out as far as it would go. All without losing the original essence of the song. I like a great variety of music but these guys are comfort food if you know what I mean. Thanks for the willingness to explore them further. It was great fun to watch you two experience something that has been such an integral part of my musical journey.

[@richardshiver6146]

i grew up in st augustine florida. they were previously the Second Coming, evolved into the Allman Bros. we saw them frequently and they played for my senior high school prom. an incredible time to be alive to enjoy the best music. I and 3 friends chipped in money drove 30 miles to get their first 8 track. what a ride home that was.

[@bluesrock1]

The greatest instrumental Dickey Betts ever wrote, and he wrote a bunch of really good ones. Possibly the perfect piece of recorded music.

[@davidhattman7649]

If you listen closely there is some Miles Davis in there. The Fillmore East was a legendary place. It was an old movie theatre that had some of greatest Rock N' Roll bands play there. Where else could you go and see The Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead and J Geils Band all on the same night for 7 dollars. Closed in 1971 and the Allman Brothers were the last band to ever play there

So glad you liked the Allman Brothers Live at the Fillmore East. It was amazing. It was also one of the best sound quality live recordings of the day. Sonically, it still is outstanding. Of my many albums from those days, I sill have that album with my collection. It's a SuperDisc high fidelity version (vinyl), akin to an Original Master Recording. The reason you heard drums in both ears was because that band always had two drummers who played simultaneously. There was no third guitar player on that album, it was Allman and Betts. I don't think they overdubbed another guitar, then again who knows. Although the band continued on beyond Duane's passing, there was no way anyone could fill his shoes. On a side note, I installed an 8-track player in the glove compartment of my old 1970 GTO. I played that Fillmore East tape until my player eventually swallowed all of the tape, which wasn't uncommon for those type of players.

The reason you hear drumming in each ear is they have two drummers, playing off each other, just as they have two lead guitar players playing off each other. This is an outstanding live collection, as is "One Way Out" which was left off this one and released on "Eat a Peach". Sadly the latter was the time when Duane was killed. Someone in the comments mentioned Cream's "Spoonful" live recording. You guys should *DEFINITELY* do that.

Tom Dowd recorded this song from two nights. He merged Dickey’s solo from the first night with Duane’s solo the second night. Masterful job of doing so. Plus the band at their peak had the same energy both nights and made it impossible to distinguish between them. Best band hands down. Explore the whole Fillmore East album. Not one song is any less than the others. Best live album of all time IMHO.

The Fillmore East was only around a few years but the shows were legendary. I was at the March 13th show with Johnny Winter and Elvin Bishop. Ticket was $4 bucks. Allmans also were the last band to play to play just a few months later. I also saw them open for the Grateful Dead in 1970. You should check out the acts that played there which included Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Santana and BB King to name a few. I don't think I ever paid more than $5 bucks for any of the 25 show I went to. The Academy of Music on 14th St. was another great venue for rock acts at the time as well.
