Great Album

showcasing the lineup that bridged the Duane to the Derek years. Thought that bringing Warren and Allen to the band was brilliance. This album finds Warren and Dickie firing on all cylinders. The third “great” incarnation of the band was yet to come with Derek joining Warren with the double guitar attack. This is not to minimize the influence of Chuck Leavall following Duane and Berry’s untimely deaths. Long live the allman brothers and their progeny. I understand the importance of the Tolers and others. Don’t want to leave anyone out. Thanks for a great run, glad I lived to see and hear it all.

turn it up...really turn up, and you can experience the thunder and the passion that the ghost of Duane brings to the stage every night .

I was at these shows many years ago and can tell you they were the greatest live performances I've every seen in 30+ years of concert attendance. . . Almost the entire show is here (Melissa, Southbound, Goin' Down the Road Feelin' Bad are the only cuts missing) and it is incredible to hear again. Most bands are lucky to have one golden age, ABB really had TWO. The original band, and this lineup. When the show was over, no one wanted to leave. Never been in a crowd that all stood still and gave a 10 minute ovation with the house lights ON!!!!
Also, have to say R.I.P. the great Allen Woody!!!!! Reminder of one of the greatest bassists (and nicest human beings) anyone could have every known. . .
The Allman Brothers Band in a peak live performance!

Live at the Fillmore is the ultimate live performance, but this album captures the band at after its 1989 reunion at its peak. Having spent three years playing together they are literally on fire. For those like me who have listened to them throughout the years (and not when they broke apart), this version of the band brought us back to reason we were so into them. With Warren Haynes basically taking over for Duane, he smokes and raises the level of Dickey’s playing back to the hey days of the 70’s. The solo start to Hoochie Koochie Man raises the hair on you neck. Gregg’s vocals are strong as ever. There are many great versions of old and new songs. The shortened version of You Don’t Love Me is excellent with Dickey playing one of his best solos ever. If you are a fan, this album is a must. If you are Jam Band fan and want to hear a “classic” version of what helped launch the modern Jam sound, then this is for you. If you just like great music and want something new, then buy this album!
play all night

Folks, this is a very special tasty treat that comes out at the right time with the band making it's final Beacon Run. Great line-up, great set list, great jams, great sound. You can feel the energy and the excitement in the air with all members firing on all cylinders. A welcome addition to any collection and an abSOULute highest of recommendations. I am thrilled to be going to 3 shows this March as The Allmans come to the end of the road and saddened that next March will have a huge void. Hopefully it will be filled with Tedeschi Trucks Band, Gov't Mule and Gregg Allman and Friends playing at the Beacon for years to come. Enjoy this!!!

This is a good set with many satisfying moments.
The three acoustic tracks are gems. They feel more connected to their deeper integrity than attempts to recreate their apex of 1971's Live at the Fillmore East. Would this style of Southern acoustic-rock with rich backing vocals have been a more vibrant path for the Band since the early '90s? I would have loved a combination of both styles. We're fortunate to have them in this release.
Pick this up. This is really good!!

I have been an ABB fan since the beginning and this CD is one of the best I have heard in a long time. Hearing Tom Doucette on Harmonica is worth the price of admission alone. Also hearing Warren Haynes play slide again is a joy and makes me remember how good he was playing slide. The band is on fire and Greg is in great voice. Dickey is also singing and playing great. What a great tribute in possibly their last year together.
So Refreshing!

Set list, quality of sound, level of play between these great musicians. A triumphant documentation of a great sound banding, who blew the doors off the 92 beacon.
