The Allman Brothers Band
Comment:
In our Deep Cuts, we’ll take you through four decades of live discs to demonstrate how — just like the South itself — the Allmans seem always ready to rise again. By the time of Live At Jazz Fest 2007, only three original members remained, but when they crank up the scorched-jam blues of “Gilded Splinters,” the years drop away, and guitarists Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes just about make you forget all about those other two guitarists. Jumping backwards 37 years, the Allmans lay a slab of Southern swampiness on top of Chicago bluesman Willie Dixon’s — and to a great degree, even though he didn’t write it, Muddy Waters’ — “Hoochie Coochie Man.” But we have to close the set out with a track from the expanded edition of 1971’s At Fillmore East, one of the greatest live rock albums of all time, as bluesman Elvin Bishop takes the mic to front a song he wrote, “Drunken Hearted Boy.”
