TWO DRUMMERS, TWO LEAD GUITARISTS, RHYTHM GUITAR, KEYBOARDS, GREAT VOCALS...COMPLETE PACKAGE❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥

Greg Allman who sang lead on this was only 21 when this was released. His voice is so rich and powerful. This my favorite Allman Brothers song. I never get tored of hearing it.

2 lead guitarists, 2 drummers, a bass player and the lead singer sitting at a Hammond organ! That's the Allman Brothers!

wow is an understatement. One of the greatest songs ever written!!!

When you listen to these songs, do you ever think wow, my grandparents rocked to this stuff,,,, and then think damn, maybe they were cooler than you?

I am so jealous of the two of you because you get to hear this great music for the first time. As much as I LOVE this music every time I hear it, I wish I could hear it for the first time again, if ya know what I mean...

Guys 2 DRUMMERS working working well together.

This is music I grew up on. Can't imagine what life would be like without that.

If you like whipping post, listen to the live version on live at the Fillmore east!! I was in the audience (yes, I’m that old)

Two drummers, two guitars players in the band. Another one to do: "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed"

Imagine discovering The Allman Brothers for the first time in 2019 and these young cats don't even know about the late great Duane Allman yet and just his story alone and his important place in rock and roll history from his early session work and his jam sessions with Dickey Betts and the great live filmed performance at the Fillmore. So much to learn young grasshoppers. Wait until they discover Layla.

At :45 Andy was talking about what he expected. It was like watching a toddler about to get his first taste of ice cream.Bless your heart

Jessica. One of the best instrumental songs of all time.

Statesboro Blues and In Memory of Elizabeth Reed from their Live at the Fillmore album.

The song was released November 4, 1969, written by Gregg Allman when he was 21. He was the singer as well. Gregg wrote this on an ironing board using burnt matches. He got the idea in the middle of the night and couldn't find a pen. This searing song is about a man who has been betrayed by his woman to the point where he feels like he's helpless - just tied to the whipping post, awaiting more punishment. Gregg Allman wrote it in Jacksonville in 1968, just after he returned from Los Angeles. Dwayne Allman played lead guitar.

Duane Allman was simply one of the best guitarists of all time- probably THE best slide guitarist. Just ask any other guitar great you can think of. From his studio work, to playing on the "Layla" album with Eric Clapton as well as with the Allman Brothers, and he did it all in his short 24 years here on earth. My hometown is Macon, Ga where they lived, played, and where three of them are now buried. They will always have a special place in my heart.

The only thing better than Whipping Post is Whipping Post live at the Fillmore East.

2 guitarists, 2 drummers a bassist and keyboardist and all in their early 20’s. Have a listen to them live at Fillmore east. Try Elizabeth reed from the Fillmore east concert.

I’m surprised you guys haven’t checked out Allman Brothers’ “One Way Out” at the Fillmore East, 1971. One of their best live performances ever, you guys would love it. Rock!

Boys, there were two drummers in the Allman Brothers.

"One Way Out." By the Allman Brothers. When the Guitar's start Ripping, you should experience a boost of Adrenaline.

I saw Greg Allman and Dicky Betts in 1988-ish. Greg came on stage...so messed up it took him a good 2 minutes to find the ashtray on his grand piano. He finally just gave up, and ground it out on the pristine Steinway. I thought "Oh shit". But then Greg sat down, opened his mouth and sang like an angel. I swear that man could break your heart with his vocals.

Being a teenager in the 70's was great!!!! I don't think we even knew how much great music was everywhere!! Allman Brothers hold up 50 years later. So happy you guys found them!!!

Absolutely listen to “Live at Filmore East” Their version of the old blues song “Stormy Monday” is tops in my book!!

"Midnight Rider" "Soul Shine" "Ramblin' Man"

Allman Brothers is my favorite band of alllllll time! Period! Listen to "In memory for Elizabeth Reed" live, also Blue Sky on Eat a Peach, and also . . . Just listen to Eat a Peach and Fillmore East and and and and and . . . Les Brers in A Minor. OMG, they are sooo good! Listen to Jessica!!!!!!! That won a grammy!

"Whipping Post" is from their first album (recorded Aug 69), titled "The Allman Brothers Band." People talk about the Allman Brothers launching Southern Rock... imho, "Whipping Post" launched Southern Rock, and every band-composed Southern Rock song after it are like housecats and "Whipping Post" is the Lion.

When asked what band do you like, Allman brothers always comes first. They have a jazz drummer and a rock drummer.

Allman Brothers used two drummers. Greg Allman, 21 years old when he first sang this, he was on the organ. Duane Allman died on a motorcycle about a year after this was recorded, he is considered one of the greatest guitarist of all time and he created the band and is the grandfather of Southern Rock, the founder. Dicky Betts, the other guitarist, also is listed in the top 75 greatest guitarist. This band is bluesy/rock and is also known for great lyrics and in live versions would just go off on wicked guitar solos that could last as long as 45, 50 minutes.Other great songs include: Ain't My Cross To Bear, Southbound, I'm No Angel, Ain't Waisting Time No More, Good Clean Fun, No One To Run With. Can you tell I grew up about 2 hours from them, the drive to Macon was always sweet

Glad you chose this one, it's a stone cold classic. By the way, it was 1969.

The Allman brothers invented the southern rock genre: dual lead guitars with competing leads, dual drummers etc. Their musicianship is unbelievable. Duane Allman was probably the greatest slide guitar player ever and Gregg’s voice is the quintessential bluesy, soulful singer. One of the best live acts ever. Live at Fillmore east changed the live album genre forever. Absolutely love Allman Brothers!

The Allman Brothers had two of the greatest guitarists who ever plucked a string - Duane Allman and Dicky Betts.

ANOTHER BANGER FROM THEM : ONE WAY OUT ,with slide guitar you really need to listen this one !

Just started appreciating these guys as i have gotten older. Easily one of the greatest American groups ever. These guys are phenomenal.

what has always been most impressive to me about the Allmans is how old Greg's voice sounded even at a very young age. He was 21 when this was recorded. :)

Saw Allman Brothers a number of times, this was and still is my favorite song..that voice

these guys would LOVE the live at Fillmore version, for sure. a 20 out of 10.

Whipping Post is an amazing song. It is a clinic in tension building and perfectly-timed and powerful spill-over.

I have seen many bands in my lifetime but seeing allman brothers in 74 was the best concert hands down the best concert I have ever seen. Best jam band ever.

From Live at Fillmore East you have to do Statesboro Blues, Statesboro Blues, Statesboro Blues, Statesboro Blues, Statesboro Blues, Statesboro Blues!! Duane Allman took slide guitar to a level never heard before and this song is a signature Duane Allman slide tune.

Welcome to the ABB boys. Arguably the best musicianship of any rock band ever created - and that's saying something when you consider Rush and all of the other great players. The live version of this song from Fillmore East is unreal. That live album is what put the band on the map. The song was recorded on August 7th, 1969. By the way, they had two drummers and two lead guitarists.

Best southern rock/blues band to ever do it, especially at that time. Duane Allman, lead guitar and Berry Oakley, bass, both died very young, both from motorcycle accidents one year apart in almost the same location. Anything you wanna try next will work, they made nothing but good music, straight up! 2 drummers there, by the way.

1970- 2 drummers. Go to “In memory of Elizabeth Reed” next. Proud of you guys.

I love these kids. I used to rock head-bang like that in my mom's living room surrounded by large speakers.

they were your age when they made this shit sooooo many deep cuts from these legends

Allman Bros Stormy Monday from Live at the Fillmore.They’re one of those bands that’s even better live.

The live version at the Fillmore East was epic.

It's cool seeing youngsters getting turned on to what we loved 50 years ago. They'll be listening to these guys 50 years from now too.

For your information, This is the first band to have dual drummers (not one. Not talkin about percussionist, full drumsets) and dual lead guitarists . A concept that thank goodness has been continued by the Tedeschi/Trucks Band. And rightfully so because Derek Trucks uncle Butch Trucks was one of the two original drummers of the Band (Capitalized because in the beginning when Rock/Southern Rock oozed out of the mud of the deep south, they were the foundation. They were the standard measured by). Also Derek first played with the Allman Brothers when he was 12 or 13 yrs old. Later to join the band in the 2000's. Susan Dedschi's band opened for them during this time (That is how she and Derek met,) So,yes, it is only fitting and true that these two carry on the tradition two drummers and two guitars, Although in the truest sense of the word Susn plays more rhythm than lead . She is steady growing as a lead player though. One can only hope that one day she and Derek will continue on with what Duane and Dickey started. I cannot end without speaking of the classic southern blues/r%b perfect voice of Greg. if you take Greg or Dwayne out of the equation, there wouldn't be an ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND or rock and roll as we know it today!Another dynamic that oozes out of the collective gumbo of the deep south. You can mimic it but you can't own it without the experience of the deep south. That is why it all started down here. Yeah! Hallelujah!!! Sorry so wordy. But there isn't but ONE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND

Gimme da grateful Dead- Birdsong Live 08/27/72!!

I think this is the greatest song ever written

I've seen A LOT of great bands in my day... FLoyd, Dead, Zappa, Clapton, McCartney, Winwood, Joel, John, Reed, etc... The all-time best concert I went to was The Allman Brothers!!!!!!

Back inE the early 90s I was on a business trip and had to drive from Savannah to Augusta. For whatever reason, I had to swing out a bit west and ended up taking the local roads/state highways. The radio station played the whole Eat a Peach album. It was late summer/early fall. Cruising down the road in rural GA with these tunes and the setting sun...what an experience. I never stopped smiling.

Midnight Rider is where you want to go also Jessica is fabulous.

Greg Allman was 22 years old when he sang and recorded this. Probably younger when he wrote it. His older brother Duane was 23 playing those licks on the slide. Both RIP

When you close your eyes and move that head is when you literally feel the music.

I'm partial to "Melissa". Its a great song and I was named after it too, so there's that.

Allman Brothers : Ramblin Man, Midnight Rider, Jessica. 3 good ones to start with. Duane Allman, lead guitar player, is considered one of the greatest ever. Died young, but played on several hits with artists you would know like Eric Clapton, etc. You should research him

Humble Pie live at the Fillmore song "I don't need no doctor"

I saw them do this in 1969 in Sarasota Florida, I was 14. They pull you in. You think "this song was made for me", but EVERY SONG was that way. When they played Midnight Rider I just went off. Then Barry sang his solo, The Hootchie Cootchie Man. But In Memory of Elizabeth Reed grabbed me the tightest. I knew this was the best band I'm ever going to see. And I saw Zeppelin and Elvis and Bowie and only Steely Dan were as musically masterful, but they weren't a stage band. The Bubbas rented a house in Venice on the Myakka River for rehearsing. They played all night.

Listen to Jessica. Top tune.

Great song to pick. You should also do midnight Rider

Saying "organ" instead of "keyboard" will earn you extra points.

When " Live at the Fillmore" dropped, American music was changed forever. They took the Blues Rock Crown from the British Invasion and opened the door for the Southern Rock ere to come. No one played slide guitar as Sweet as Duane Allman. His work on Layla with Eric Clapton on the Derek and the Domino's album was the Zenith of the Rock Era.. and then he was gone, killed on a Triumph leaving his brother Greg with a shattered soul to carry on..

And now for the Fillmore East version...

You two picked a great song to start with in your discovery of The Allman Brothers Band. I really love Ramblin Man & Midnight Rider as well. I hope you may be able to play them as well some time. Thanks guys for doing this one.

For all those who care, the Capricorn Studios Museum is almost ready to open

One Way Out. My favorite kick ass tune of theirs. Duane’s slide work is impeccable.

They've always featured two drummers. You could veer off a little, and check out Layla from Derek and the Dominos, with guitar by both Eric Clapton and Duane Allman. Duane died in a motorcycle accident in Macon Georgia on October 29th 1971, at the age of 24. The Allman Brothers officially retired in 2014. Gregg Allman (vocals, keys) passed in 2017.

They have 2 drummers and 2 lead guitarist's. I think it worked.

Any man who has suffered through a bad marriage for any length of time knows exactly the feelings being expressed. An Amaizing song

Other fan viewers here agree...have to watch Fillmore East live jam version to see every super talented musician on stage wringing every last sound from each instrument. It will take you right back to 1970 with the whole look - hair, clothes, atmosphere. You won't regret it. Loved your reaction.👍👍

I remember listening to this high on Peyote riding to the Grand Canyon from Flagstaff in 1972. Also on that album "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed". Remember kids: Don't do drugs!

RIP Duane Allman. Died way too soon in a motorcycle accident at only 24. Considered one of Rock's greatest guitarists. "Ramblin Man" a definite classic.

Kathy here - if you like the Allman Brothers, you need to listen to One way out - live - I have watched on here and there is no copyright on it. Then It's not my Cross to Bear and Midnight rider. All excellent songs. Greg is the lead singer, and he and his brother grew up about 25 miles from my hometown. Met Greg when I was 14. They were playing a free concert in Atlanta at Piedmont Park in downtown Atlanta. Greg and I actually became really close friends, and I was in touch with him up until about a month before he passed away. Duane Allman plays the slide guitar, and he was killed in a motorcycle accident at a young age. All of Georgia wept. To me, and yes, I am biased, they were one of the best all time southern rock and roll bands. Again, so glad to see the younger generation appreciating great music. Thanks for your review. Have a blessed day and keep reacting!

TWO drummers, two guitarists ... what made them magical ...

Also they recorded live. Old school style. One big room, live takes, maybe some splicing from different takes, but all live. Also I love how you pointed out the pulling of the bass and the grounding of the keys. Yes. Sound engineers unite!

Marshall Tucker band doing can't you see live is a must listen 😍🇨🇦

This reaction was over 4 years ago...hope they went back revisited their performance from the live at Fillmore east..it's even better live

Gregg Allman wrote this song at age 20. All the band members were in their early 20's in this album and the Fillmore Live album.

Hey guys - Love your channel! Great instrumental banger by the Allman Bros is “Jessica”. I also love “Ramblin’ Man” and the haunting melody of “Midnight Rider”.

IN MEMORY OF ELIZABETH REED - Live at Fillmore East

Live at the Fillmore East “Statesboro Blues”!!! The intro alone is worth it with Duane Allman’s slide work.

Blue Sky is a must. That guitar solo is harmonic, melodic and hypnotic. The perfect trifecta.

Andy when you started your channel doing full album Floyd and Sabbath reacts I knew you were someone that was truly searching for real music. Then you bring on Alex who I could tell even before you guys made it public that you both were musicians reminded me of me and my friends who spend some really late nights jamming and then trying to rip each others heads off playing albums of our musical heroes. I'm saying this for real you guys are real and that's why you connect with this music and that's why we all connect with you. Honestly if I were you guys I would do a full album Friday cut of Allman's Live at the Fillmore East start to finish. I guarantee you it will change your lives. I'm 100% serious- this cut was only the tip of the iceberg for them. DUANE will change you as a player. He was what has never been and never will again. Much love guys!!

Thanks for playing The Allman Brothers Band, my favorite band for 50 years. "Don't Want You No More/It's Not My Cross To Bear" was off their first album in 1969, would love to see your review. The Live at the Fillmore East was considered one of the greatest live albums of all time.

1969 !! I graduated in '66. AWESOME reaction, to a great song !! Keep it up !! BTW two drummers and two guitarists, and a Hammond B-3 organ.

If you give this studio version a 10, you can't even grasp how much better it is on their live "at The Fillmore" album.

You guys absolutely nailed the essence of what makes this song such a classic. So glad you both gave it a 10. Allmans were on a whole other level.

8:00 - I've heard this song thousands of times, never noticed that - thanks for pointing it out!

My daughter's elementary school had an annual Fall Festival for the kids. One year they hired a live band to play at the festival. It was an Allman Brothers cover band, and "Whipping Post" was one of the songs they played to the audience of little kids. I was digging it, but the kids thought it was scary.

1969 and they weree all soooo young! 17 to 21. 2 sets of drums and 2 lead players. By the way Gregg Allman wrote that and he was 17 years old and he sang it like he was an old soul.

Yup. That sounds like a ten to me. The Allman Bros were an amazing band and I can't encourage you enough to continue to check out their catalogue. I freakin love these guys and that is just the sound I chase when I play.

You guys are one of the best channels out there on KZfaq.

You guys are great- I just discovered your channel. It was 1971 - It's a Beautiful Day opening for the Allman Brothers at Musicarnival. A big tent- either we were broke or couldn't get tickets so we ran around being chased by guys in Karate suits but managed to sneak in lifting up the tent. Unbelievable show- 2 drummers in crazy synchronization. Greg's amazing vocals and Duane's masterful guitar. (He played for Clapton doing the slide on Layla). Sadly, he died in a motorcycle accident four months after I saw them. It's a Beautiful Day were equally amazing. ❤

Just the opening alone is epic

'69, I believe. Band had ups and downs and more than their share of tragedy. THE pioneers of southern blues rock. Check out, in the same vein, their "Not My Cross to Bear". Tasty.

One of ABB's most popular songs is an acoustic sort-of ballad called "Melissa" which has a lead guitar playing almost through the entire song. ABB, and other southern rock, used major pentatonic in the solos quite a bit which gives it a sweet, unique feel. ABB also used two lead guitars in harmony a lot, as they do in Whipping Post.

I am 63...grew up on this music and am happy people are finding it again...Allman Brothers is one of the biggest bands of all time...we have current groups that grew up from these groups like Tedeskie Trucks Band, Derick Trucks uncle was the Drummer for Allman Brothers, Warren Haynes with Gov't Mule played guitar with them in the day and on a different note Joe Bonamasa especially the Carnegie Hall Album is priceless.
