Now a lot of people sing the praises of Greg and Duane Allman but, the band wouldn't be what they were without the other 4 members. The late great Berry Oakley on bass, then another terrific guitar player Dickie Betts, two underrated drummers Butch Trucks and Jaimoe Johansson.

"Southern" rock is selling them short. The Allmans were far more than that. The Allmans,Little Feat and The Grateful Dead are,for me,the three bands that just encapsulated American music as they touched on so many different parts of the whole...rock,blues,jazz,soul,country and folk as well.

Gregg said rock came out of the south, so the term 'Southern Rock' is like saying 'Rock Rock'. You're right; they're so much more than rock; southern or otherwise. They're blues, they're jazz, and they're rock all at the same time. Amazing group.

Gregg Allman singing and playing the Hammond B3 with a Leslie amp and it's spinning horn speaker. Gregg wrote this song in the middle of the night, writing it down on an ironing board cover with burnt matches because he couldn't find paper and pencil in the dark. True story. Go into the band at their best, live performance. From 'Live at the Fillmore East', listen to their instrumental 'In Memory of Elizabeth Reed'. Or if you really got to have some vocals, the first track, 'Statesboro Blues'.

[@lathedauphinot6820]

This is the greatest live band I’ve ever seen. I was unprepared and shocked and amazed by them. It was beyond giving each other cues; they all lived on a farm together with their families and knew each other so well that it seemed telepathic. Beyond that, they were all excellent, top of the line, best in the country individual musicians who used everything they knew and combined every style and genre of American music to create a new style of their own, which people called “Southern Rock”, but they didn’t. They were unparalleled, seemed to come out of nowhere, and had many imitators. They had two drummers, two guitarists, and at first two keyboardists: Gregg Allman replaced Reese Wynans, who went on to play a decade later with Gregg’s friend Stevie Ray Vaughan. Gregg died five years ago, and Reese came full circle and played The Allman Brothers Band’s 50th Anniversary Show with them. To be in The Allman Brothers Band in any incarnation you had to be an excellent musician. Anything from ‘Fillmore East’, especially this song (it’s worth it) or ‘Eat a Peach’ is brilliant.

Love this song! As a teenager, I was fortunate enough to have seen the original Allman Brothers Band in concert - they headlined an all day open air festival at Midway Stadium in St Paul, MN, in July 1971. I knew a little about the band, but didn't fully appreciate how good they were at the time. Fun fact: they had two drummers Other bands that appeared that day: t's a Beautiful Day. Little Richard. Richie Furay and Poco, John Baldry, Joy of Cooking, Redeye and Jam Band/Mike Quatro. Another not-so-fun fact: one attendee was climbing up one of the tall light poles at sunset and was told to come down before he fried when the lights were ready to be put on. Also, many concert-goers had climbed on top of and were sitting on the scoreboard. One of them fell off and later died in the hospital, causing the cancellation of the third concert scheduled for the following month. Festival #1, which I also attended the month before, featured Tony Glover, Muddy Waters, Crow, The Butterfield Blues Band, Delaney & Bonnie, John Sebastian, and headliner The Band. Good times!

ANYTHING from the Allman Brothers Live at the Fillmore East album is outstanding and classic. For studio albums, my favourite is 'Eat A Peach' and my favourite song on that album is 'One Way Out'. If you all want to get crazy that album also has a song that is over 33 minutes long called 'Mountain Jam'. And that's what it is; over half an hour of the Allman Brothers just jamming. I remember on the original vinyl album there were 8 songs on one record and Mountain Jam took up the entire side of a second LP. It was a unique 1 and a half LP release. The other side of the LP with Mountain Jam on it was blank. I don't think anybody else ever did something like that.

Duane also sat in on a lot of other musicians albums.

No. Gregg was the LAST person to join the band. ABB was DUANE's band. Reese Wynans was the original keyboard player, and when Duane persuaded (more like ORDERED) Gregg to join the band, Reese had to go because Duane didn't want two keyboard players.
