Wow, just amazing. This was the heyday of concerts. Dickey and Dan were such a great duo. Dan was so underrated and so was Dickey for that matter. Butch and Jaimoe were always the best. I wish I could go back and live it all over again. I was a senior in HS when this took place and all of the shows were just raw talent. God bless all of those who have passed for the great music and memories that will last for generations.

Condolences to family and friends of Mr. Betts passing at 80 years of age, #music is best. Thank you kindly for sharing this wonderful group of musicians. #CALSON 🐬 Dickey Betts - vocals, guitar

Dickey is a total MONSTER guitar player. Wow.

Dickey was on fire this show. He is one of the best!!!

This mix of rock, roll,rb ,blues and whatever else shit whatever you can think of!!!!!!! they was creating this unique sweet, heartfelt and warming and you know it was the inspiration point blank....

The dangerous Dan Toler mix! How did I miss this video for so many years?!!

I have loved the Allman Brothers since the 70s and always believed that Gregg Allman was one of the best blues singers ever not to mention the incredible talent of Dicky Betts and Duanne Allman. I finally got to see Gregg in 2015 at the San Diego County Fair and didn't regret a minute of it although I missed the great guitar undertones which were replaced by more horns, etc. to Gregg's delight and will. RIP Gregg thanks for the great music!

Always on the lookout for another great Liz Reed and this doesn’t disappoint!!

The average age of the kids in the audience 17 today mid 50's and still recall the day they saw, heard and experienced the Allman Brothers band live for the first time. Wishing for days to be like they had been. No worries no fears no problems just a moment in time to rock, roll shake your butt and forget the problems of life. may the circle be unbroken Some day!

Sooo glad this recording exists! The energy of this incredible show still blows my mind. For Elizabeth Reed … Greg hopping all over the keyboards barely contained … most stunning live version! Thank you

One of the best ABB concerts of all time and a milestone of the genre that will forever remain in the History of truly good Music!

Dicky Betts made this work...saw Great Southern at a sm. venue In Mid-Coast Maine in 2004! He rocked our town out..Please come Back! Smokin Great time!

Dickey was at his peak here after the band added Toler, an excellent player who enhanced the pure ABB sound. The slide and sheer ferocious musical intensity of Duane will ever be missed as long as people "appreciate" music.

We lost the great Dickie Betts last night. What a killer Guitarist and what an amazing experience the ABB was. Absolutely the most destructive solo on Whipping Post I have ever heard. Hands down iMO "THE" Godfathers of Southern Rock and with the deepest roots in THE BLUES! Brother Jamoi is the last man standing now.

This is when Dickey was leading the Band. As always the " Brothers" kicked ass live. I always dug Goldflies bass playing.

Gregs contribution to this music as a keyboardist is so often overlooked. His blues powered chording and jazz riffs were a major part of the Allman Brothers sound.

Another fine concert by The Bros. The epitome of what Southern Rock is all about.

Fun Facts on the theater in which this was filmed: - had it's own in house light show run by former Fillmore East crew under Bill Graham - became the new Fillmore after the Fillmore East and West closed - was a former Vaudeville theater and it had perfect acoustical properties due to grading of floors and walls, and the batting on the walls (this is why acts like Springsteen's Sept 1978 three night stand are legendary bootlegs today: the sounds the place allowed were unmatched for power and ferocity) - after Vaudeville era, and before the 1970's when it became a music venue, it was a porn theater, showing adult films to men who would literally sit in there all day and .... yes, that. True. Very historic venue for Rock and Roll. Everyone played the Capital from Prince to Springsteen to Stevie Ray Vaughan and The Dead and The Clash. amazing place

This was a good line up of the reassembled ABB. Dan Toler was a good guitar player that complimented Dickey quite well. Sad he's gone like so many of the others.

Wow, hats off to John Belushi! Great voice and cartwheel! ABB are legends!

the musicianship throughout this entire concert just brings a smile to my face, so seamless and effortless but yet some of the best playing of all time from every instrument. if steely dan was from the south.

Fantastic concert....typ[cally awesome of the great Allman Brothers Band

Saw them play a lot in the 90's, early 2000's. They were Awesome, always. I would trade them all to have been at this show. This lineup kicked some serious ass!

I thought this Enlightened Roques album came out a year later? I do remember that Album, and as I recall I saw them shortly after this album came out in Ohio. Still.... they were great and their music will always be the best, no matter how old I get! I saw them live at least 4 times... the most ever, too. AND I wish that I could always see them again and again....until they put me in the ground.

Takes my breath away. Simply outstanding, No one did it as well as the ABB.

R.I.P. Butch Trucks ...respect

I didn't follow the ABB closely back in the day but always liked them and knew who most of the members were etc. I guess it never registered that Dicky was kind of their front man.

THE HARP PLAYER = JIM ESSERY. Met Jim in Flagler Beach after surfing...there was a bar across from the pier, walked over and he was playing with a drummer who was taught by Artemis Pyle (Skynyrd) and accompanied by a guitar player whose name is Ace Moreland who was friends with Steve Gaines (Skynyrd post Ed King). The deep south and Florida is a magical, magical place. Been out in Koo Koo Fornia for too long...music scene out here can't touch what the south has....unless you are into P Diddy "Greatest Musician" that can't play an instrument (eyes rolling). it's sad. In any event - Jim and Ace were awesome, super nice and gave me some of their CDs for free. I LOVED hearing Jim's stories about playing with the ABB. Super great guy. Ace had a studio and I went out to play some drums at his studio (i play guitar, drums and sing) and got to hear more Steve Gaines stories and Derek Trucks too - Ace knew him / jammed with Derek when he was a kid. Artemis lived out in St. Augustine (12 min up north on A1A)...as did Jim. Ace and Jim both passed away relatively young. Long live Rock N' Roll! Cheers y'all!

Dickey Betts,a true "guitar god".

For my personal flavor, I think that I will stick with the "Fillmore" double album to veg with. Vinyl albums, Cassette tapes, 8 tracks. DVD's, Live at the Fillmore is 'simply the best' mood altering therapy that I know. The Lord knows that I am a fan and continue to appreciate this wonderful band!
