THE LEGACY

Album: The Allman Brothers Band At Fillmore East (Capricorn, 1971) The Sound: When Gregg Allman howls, “Good Lord I feel like I’m dyin’,” on Whipping Post – it hurts. Brother Duane and Dickey Betts are impeccably clean on twin guitars and snarl when soloing. The sum of the parts adds up to an improvisational blues-rock group that rivalled the best jazz cats.
