Earl Pflugh This is one of the best replies I ever heard You are so right!!

[@perryarrington8446]

one of the two drummers they used was Black, the rest of the band was Southern and White....Gregg Allman's voice drives their music like a brand new Benz...of course Dickey Betts and Duane Allman (who died not long after this album) were mainstays of this ICONIC uniquely Southern blues group....one of the greatest American bands ever

[@perryarrington8446]

one more thing, you rarely hear this type of soul from Whites who didn't grow up in the deep south....Why ? Because most White bands from the South were very highly influenced by Black blues singers from the South because we lived so close together and shared one another's culture....most of the bands heroes were guys like B.B. King, Elvis Presley, Gary Davis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Robert Lockwood and so on

[@31wst83]

@@Neil-de1fh No, do not touch the stuff!! You love Skynyrd...that's fine...your business. But you gotta face facts also. Every one of those 70's Southern Rock bands were 2nd fiddle to the Allmans. They were the first and the best. All the others were just imitations of them.

[@shawnj1966]

@31wst, Skynyrd was hardly an imitation of the Allman Brothers and actually formed a few years before them albeit under a different name so there goes your, "they were the first.", argument. They sound nothing alike and they certainly weren't trying to be anything but themselves. If you hear any imitation it is because you have a bad ear for music! Just admit that you got your panties in a bunch because I commented that Skynyrd had a better body of work. Ask most people how many Allman Brothers songs they know and you can count them on one hand. I love them but the fact is that they just weren't as prolific as Skynyrd even though their best music was just as good if not better depending on the the opinion of the fans. Was Molly Hatchet or Blackfoot trying to sound like any other Southern Rock bands? Of course not! The Allman Brothers were awesome but nobody was trying to imitate them! All the bands had a different and unique sound and just because they were all classified as Southern Rock it doesn't mean that they were imitating anyone else. Now stop whining and admit that I'm right LOL

Allman Brothers concerts were never a let down. IMO, the best live show in ANY era. I get chills watching the love you give to this recording. I can close my eyes and see Greg on that keyboard deliver the goods with that iconic voice. I was lucky enough to see them live many times and even in they 2010's they were nothing short of perfection. Bruce Trucks with with prodigal son Derek along with Warren Haynes. My god - the perfect funktified southern soul higher institution of rock. End of story.

[@Ireland831]

When you hear southern rock label, it can unfairly pigeon hole the music. The Allmans are VERY accomplished musicians. The songs are unreal. They are a jazz influenced, blues band. I am glad this guy Jamel is posting his reactions. One of the greatest bands ever assembled. Fun to see this guy's reaction. Southern Bluesmen with some Bluegrass and Jazz musical influence...with some 60's/70's era hippies flair. Just one of the great band of all time.

@@genesutton6383 That was mutual between them. Before Duane met Eric, Tom Dowd took Derek And The Dominos from the studio to see the Allman Brothers in concert. Duane looked off the stage and saw Clapton watching him and literally quit playing in the middle of his solo and turned his back to the audience because he was so shook up. Dickey looked over at Duane to see what had happened, followed his line of sight, and upon seeing Clapton HE quit playing and also turned his back to the audience. This story has been told by everyone from Tom Dowd, to Bobby Whitlock, to Allman Brothers drummer Butch Trucks.

Yes, 20 something minutes of pure joy

Definetly the best live album of all time. That version of statesboro blues outshines any other attempt anyone has ever done!!

Came here to say this. Particularly the extended version that has the 33 minute rendition of Mountain Jam. One of the few bands that I prefer listening to live.

There's a reason they were the best live band that ever graced a stage. Same reason why Fillmore East album has been named by the Library of Congress as being culturally or historically important.

Hey, Danny, the first time I ever heard ABB music was as a high school freshman and a group of students who had a band performed in the school talent show with "Don't Want You No More/It's Not My Cross to Bear." Been an ABB fan ever since - and that was in '71. :-)

You have to watch the documentary "Muscle Shoals" if you are loving this. a lot of amazing music came out of Muscle Shoals.

It was part of a series called Concerts on the Common, and a band called Wet Willie opened for them. It was on August 17, 1971 (I Googled it), and I sat on the lawn maybe 60' from the stage. Probably paid about $10 for the ticket. How amazing is that? The following October, Duane Allman was killed.

When my mother died of cancer, I was 18 and it felt my Mom was the only one who loved me. My upstairs neighbour had this album and somehow I discovered it. I played it over and over and couldn't get enough of it. It was the only thing that touched me in the despair and suffering I felt, but couldn't express. After a few miracles and crashing and burning, I finally started to pull out of my depression about 6 months later. About six months after that, I became a Christian, thanks to a lot of humbling and finally understanding 'the gospel' and God's love. That was 40 years ago and this is still an incredible song. Thanks for getting these songs the way you do & you have a great voice! Would love to hear you sing this!

[@Shannon-58]

Tammy, I suffer with depression and other demons to. I also have lost both my parents. I was with them when when they took their last breath. They passed several years apart. Both times, it was the most devastating & traumatic thing I’ve ever been thru. I’m still not over it. I tried self medicating and anything else i could but nothing would and can ease the pain. I lost my mom last 7 mts ago April. I was with her all the time helping her with everything. Now that she’s not here anymore, I feel like I lost my purpose, I just feel so lost, don’t know what to do with myself? Very lonley without them. Although after my dad passed, I got a hunger for Gods truth and started studying Gods Word and praying, I to experienced Gods love, so amazing, such a peaceful and awesome experience, My eyes were opened, I never knew there could be such a love ❤️ . When I lost my mom, I fell back, depression got worse, everything got worse , I’m trying to get back to where I was. I need prayer. Will you pray for me. I’m very sorry about your mom and I hope the depression is getting better for you. Thank you so much. Very much appreciated ❤😊🙏

@@Shannon-58 I was so touched by your comment. My heart goes out to you and is so with you. I totally empathize with feeling lost and lonely after your Dad and Mom passed away. I know it takes time to go through the grief, which is so unique to everybody. It's been a long time now since Mom died - I was 18 then and I've just turned 59. I find myself wanting to write a longer comment about things that helped me with depression, etc., but I'm not even sure if you want that (let me know if you do). There's a verse has been so comforting, "Even though your mother and father forsake you, the Lord will take you up." It's so amazing to have a loving God who will never leave us and is always working to bring us to wholeness. May He gives you wisdom and guidance and help you find just what you need. ❤️ I will be praying!!! 🥰

[@Shannon-58]

Hey Tammy, how are you? I hope you had a great Christmas. Mine was ok, it was different without my mom. No peanut butter candy, my son is living down there in her house. I went in and it was a wreck . I know if mom was there. I would have cleaned it for her. It would have been spotless. She always had all her presents placed just right under the tree. My son had them some presents on a huge bag beside the tree. Everything was different. Actually it was awful, I had to put on the happy face for my son nieces sister. It was very hard. I wanted to use so bad because I really don’t want to feel the pain. She’s been gone for 8 months and I have felt like my purpose in life is gone. I was with her all day everyday and now I don’t know what to do with myself. I miss her. The hardest thing I have ever done was ask God to please take her on home because she was so pitiful and suffering so bad. Me and my sister stayed with her the week they sent her home on hospice. Life is different now, I have to say that it use to be better. I was in church. I saw God answer prayers, i studied the bible faithfully. I felt Gods presence his peace and love. His love for us is what really blew my mind. I had never knew there was such a love. Oh man a big big love, a love that this little flesh brain just couldn’t comprehend. Not really blew me away. Tammy, I want to get back to where I was and I’m finding it very hard right now. I’ve strayed and I don’t know how to get back. I’m ashamed of myself for straying. I feel like I’ve betrayed God. I also feel ashamed to pray.I hope you and your family have a happy new year. I really don’t know how mines gonna be, I hope it goes better than 2023, one of the worst years of my life watching my m suffer and then die right in front of me my sis and my son. I can’t get it out of my head how her face looked after she took that last breath. So horrible. Something I never wanted to see. I was with my dad when he passed, wat he’s him take his last breath. I miss my parents. They raised me right and were so good to me and my sis. They always had us in church and takes to us about God and Jesus. I’m sorry for rambling so much about myself, I need prayer really bad. I’m not in a good place right now. Well Tammy I’m sorry for going on and on. I hope 2024 is amazing for you and I hope you had the best Christmas. I guess I’ll go. Just really wanted to say hello to you. Don’t forget to pray for me. I feel that you are a good faith filled person those are the ones I want to pray for me. I mean I’m far from where I was. I want to do what’s right and get back to where I need to be.🙏🕊

[@tammyjoma]

@@Shannon-58 It's so good to see your comment. I really wondered how you were over Christmas as it's such a family time and I hoped it wouldn't be too painful. I wanted to actually write a little comment of encouragement! I'm so sorry it was so hard at times. I totally empathize! Thank you for trusting me with some of your deepest thoughts and feelings. Your honesty and vulnerability reminds me of the verses, "He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds." (Psalm 34) and "A broken and contrite heart You will not despise." (Psalm 18:17) I wanted to think about what you wrote a little bit to see what really came up and then reply again. So this little note is to say I'll do that. I will be praying!!! Thinking about you! ♥️
