You Are There.......2007-05-29

Yippee. Pass that roach, snap your Bic, this is a real concert, unedited and the boys are hot! The inclusion of Saxophonists Marsalis and Densen was a bonus for the crowd.

With the advent of Instant Live, the Allman Brothers made most shows available in pristine soundboard quality to listeners. This show from the 2003 tour was one of the best shows of a remarkable tour. The band was touring the new Hittin' The Note record, and much of the tour was played with Karl Denson as opening act, reflecting (I think) some of Derek Trucks musical sensibilities. In addition Warren Haynes is pushing the band to add more cover tunes.

As a result we get wonderful tracs like Who's Been Talking, Into the Mystic and a fantastic version of Don't Think Twice featuring Susan Tedeschi. The aforementioned Mr. Denson takes a star turn on Instrumental Illness and Branford Marsalis joins the bad for Dreams and Whipping Post. Mixed in with new tracks from Hittin' The Note the band brings back Done Somebody Wrong, Come and Go Blues and a wickedly funky version of Wasted Words.

Hopefully, the road will go on forever!.......2006-04-22

Another awesome IL recording from ABB's 2003 tour, and this one is a keeper. A nice rendition of "Come and Go Blues", a rare appearance of "Gambler's Roll" a emotional version(as usual) of "Soulshine" make this one a winner. "Don't Think Twice" with vocals by Susan Tedeschi is downright chillin', not to forget a beautiful outing of "Into The Mystic" sung by Mr.Haynes. Just wish other bands would follow ABB and release their live shows. Then again, few bands can match their quality live.

Special guest stars make this an added plus.......2006-02-15

This is one of many "instant Live" CDs that the Allmans do annually now. They are in top form with many strong song selctions and with Gregg in fine voice. An added bonus is Mrs. Derek Trucks (Susan Tedeschi) joining the band for her rendition of Dylan's "Don't think twice. it's allright". Barnford Marsalis joins the Allmans for 2 cuts at end of the night and he is great saxophonist and it's great to hear classic like Dreams and Whipping Post with a world class saxophonist behind them. Wasted Words and "old before my time" are 2 songs you will not easily find on Allamn Brothers live Cds also. They issued many Instant Lives from 2003 so pick one that's special like this one.

Low price makes up for the faults.......2005-01-23

There is a very bad trend in music of releasing CD sets of complete concerts. Every jam band is doing it. The Allman Brothers were one of the last hold outs.

All the truly great live albums, like Allman Brothers, Live at the Filmore East, or the early Graterful Dead albums, or Derek and the Dominoes Live, were taken from several shows. That way, you end up with truly great performances of every song.

When you have a complete concert, there are some songs you don't really need to hear again. This CD set has yet another version of Soulshine, which on every single live album that Warren Haynes has played on. It was a good song the first 20 times I heard it, but now I am sick of it.

The other problem, is the WHOLE concert is included, including all the cheering and talking in between tracks. I really don't want to hear a bunch of stoned idiots whistling and screaming for several minutes. All the truly great live albums have most of the audience noise edited out.

Not only is most of the audience noise included, it is actually cranked up. So you end up hearing whistling and screaming in the middle of some wonderful jamming. There is no reason for this. To get audience noise like this, the group actually has to have audience microphones.

What makes this CD set so good it is that it is so cheap. (Well, it was cheap when it was first issued. It looks like the price may have gone up more than a couple of bucks). With a CD burner, you can edit this down to a single CD of extremely great music, and it only cost the price of a single CD. With groups like Phish, their complete concerts are fairly expensive, so you end up paying a lot for what amounts to only a CD's worth of good material.

There is some fantastic music on the this CD. I hated to see Dickey Betts kicked out of the band, but adding Derek Trucks has really added new life to the band, just as when Warren Haynes came in 15 years ago. Even the classic Allman Brothers songs sound new and exciting. Trucks adds a new jazz orientation to the band. I really enjoy this new version of Wasted Words.

What makes this CD special is the guest appearances on four of the tracks. There is a saxophonist on Instrumental Illness and this turns into a really jazzy number. It is stretched out to 39 minutes, but 15 minutes of that is drum solos. I am not a big fan a drum solos, but the Allman Brothers, along with the Grateful Dead, were always the best at it. This one includes one of Butch Truck's tympanny solos (I have been looking for one of those since the first time I saw him do that in the mid seventies).

Dreams and Whipping Post feature a guest appearance by Brandford Marsailles. This is actually turning into somewhat of a cliche, since he has guested on a number of jam band alive albums, including the Grateful Dead and Widespread Panic. This version of Dreams is great. I would put it up there with the one on the Greg Allman Tour album.

My only other quibble with this CD is Warren Haynes introduction of the guest musicians, "please welcome to the stage....". It is exactly the same as on his Gov't Mule CD's.
