Allman Brothers Band - Fillmore Concerts (1971)



The greatest live rock album of all time? Possibly, though some would argue that the Allman Brothers Band's 'At Fillmore East' is a bit overpraised. Anyway, this is blues-rock (or Southern rock, if you're a stickler for regional pigeonholing) at its finest, played with a infectious blistering energy that's sure to leave you dazed and drained but totally delirious. This expanded CD reissue, retitled 'The Fillmore Concerts', isn't as tightly focused as the original double-LP version (my copy's been nicked by my vinyl-junkie buddy CMK), but you're getting it free so don't complain!
