At Fillmore East

Слушать концертные альбомы обычно — как смотреть фотографии чужого отпуска. Скучно и грустно одновременно. Но этот — совсем другое дело. Тут ты будто сидишь в первом ряду. Пот, виски, электричество. Полный спектр эмоций. И секрет здесь кроется именно в самой музыке. Ребята играют классический южный блюз. Такой узнаёшь сразу и ни с чем другим его уже не спутаешь. Плотный, сочный, тягучий, как сироп на панкейках в придорожной забегаловке. Он прям обволакивает, но в то же время чувствуешь его силу. Вообще, южный блюз, как и сами южане — с виду мягкий, внутри — стальной. Ну и сами песни, конечно, отдельный разговор. Это вам не модная попсовая "radio edition" на две с половиной минуты. Тут есть композиции и на 13, и даже на 30+(!) минут. Отсюда ихрон такой: в альбоме всего 13 треков, а идёт он больше двух часов. В общем, как я уже говорил: концертные альбомы шлак, но этот хорош.

Great musicians but just too much instrumental for me on this album. 3 stars or C+ for me.

Amazing performance from one of history's best jam bands. This album has a razor sharp blues edge and a psychedelic twist reminiscent of the Dead. This is simply one of the GOAT live albums. Few have risen to this high level of excellence.

Wow, this album really redeemed by the last two songs, especially "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed." That one going on the background playlist fosho. The rest of the album was just sorta there. I get the idea of a jam band concert album, but just sorta there for me.

Sounds great but it was a bit hard to get into it because of the extremely long songs. Also like always I don't believe live albums belong here.

it was fine. not a lot of lyrics innit

Jam Music

It does go on a bit but that's part of the charm. I'll happily listen again but maybe won't look for it. A harsh 3

God it really just KEPT GOING As a 1971 live recording it's great. As something I would choose to listen to it very much is not. I could have been listening to Tate McRae

Pretty ok

Not a live music fan but found this enjoyable

looooooooonnngggggggggg boring

Sometimes when it comes to these bands with obvious blues rock sound or something I always start expecting this will be something I will dislike or that it's gonna be too long for its own good which usually I feel right in feeling that way but here I think it was an unwarranted fear because this album was a lot cooler than I gave it credit for, especially from Stormy Monday onwards. There's something to the addition of these jazzy and jammy elements like the use of organ or long improv solos that gives it the kind of psychedelic feel I would look for in something from this era compared to if it was purely blues rock stuff without much else, this is especially obvious on "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" and "Whipping Past" which when I read people say they are perfect, I can actually see it. I like surprises like these

I just find this kind of music so boring. Who listens to it? Old people smoking weed I guess.

Lekker hoor, maar doe mij maar een studioalbum van die gasten

Love The Allman Brothers but this record wasn’t anything moving to me. There were some beautiful moments here and there but nothing that got me hooked. The studio version of these songs are sooooo much better… Favorites: Stormy Monday, In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed, Whipping Post

does not spark interest in me

Masturbatory music at its finest. As good as it is, wankery is still wankery.

The Allman Brothers are my dad's favorite band, so I heard a lot of them growing up. He's said multiple times At Fillmore East is regarded as one of the "greatest live albums of all time." Don't tell my dad, but I never really liked them growing up. Still, I figured I'd give the album a fair shot here. And after giving it a shot... I still don't like it. I don't really like blues, or southern blues rock. It doesn't do anything to my brain. That said, I love The Mars Volta, and I feel like Duane Allman's solo-ing might do to my dad's brain what Omar Rodriguez' solo-ing does to my brain. It's the same idea, just different execution for different generations. Maybe one of the reasons I don't like it is because, to me, it's predictable. That could be because I listened to it growing up all the freaking time, so I've internalized these patterns. It's just so familiar and basic to me. This could be why kids will never like the music they hear from their parents growing up as much as their parents do. It will never be "new" to them. They will never have "discovered" this music, because it was spoon fed to them just like their baby food was. It's too familiar to them in a way that becomes boring. We all want new-ness, to an extent, when we're teenagers and we're discovering music for the first time. So, I don't think The Allman Brothers are bad by any means. But personally they don't do anything for me. I'll give this a 3 out of respect for my dad, and because Whipping Post is an actual jam. But the rest of it is not my bag. Oh, and also there's a frequency on Duane's guitar that just GRATES in my ears. Like some kind of high mids piercing, shrill frequency I would cut so hard if I were mixing this thing now.

Well, that was cooler than I was expecting.

I'm sure if I was actually at this concert it would be great. But, to listen at my desk? It was just okay...

This is an excellently recorded and made live album, it almost sounds like it was made in a studio. And technically they are very good musicians. If I rated only on these aspects, it would be a 5 easily. But as I was listening to it, I questioned myself - what's really the point of this virtuosity? Is there any? I also felt like that the album is about 30 minutes longer than it should be. Near 80 minute albums are just too long. So all things considered it is a 3 from me.

Ehh on live albums

This was a great rock (or bluesrock in song songs) album. I haven't heard the band before but I really like the guitar playing. After this I'm gonna go listen to a non live album to see what they sound like with some more mixing in a studio environment. I have a feeling there will be songs I might add to many playlists.

I typically don’t go in for jam band or jam band adjacent music like this, but these dudes cooked and their drummer hated the Grateful Dead, so they’re cool with me.

Two disc set but with some short sides. It's good Souther boogie rock with a strong LIVE feeling.

Long but pleasant. But long. Good background vibes.

Favorite tracks: In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed, Mountain Jam I was bracing myself for this because 1) blues rock is not my cup of tea, and 2) the length. But once it got going, I actually quite liked the instrumental/jamming parts. Clearly very skilled people, clearly having a great time. Not something I'd add to regular rotation, but I'd put it in the background if I had guests. 3 stars.

Too long, it just sounds like the blues scale up and down over and over again.

3 stars. not bad just not my genre.

Nice jan session

One of my top 5

While not a huge Allman Brothers fan, at all really, this is great album.

Surprisingly good for a live blues album full of really loooong songs and guitar workouts. ‘Whipping Post’ is the one track that probably doesn’t quite justify its 20+ minute run time, but overall, for a blues album this was pretty good, and it’s a nice recording also. 3.5/5 but rounding up.

No hate to the Allman Brother's, but isn't this album just a bunch of white guys playing blues music? The music is good, I'd throw this album on the turntable on a Sunday morning while doing the dishes, but it's not nearly as memorable as anything by Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters, or other blues and roots great. I guess you get some psychedelic rock weaseling it's way in to make it more unique, but not enough to make it feel like they're not just cosplaying as black musicians and making their songs 4x longer for no reason.

Overall wasn't that influential on me...

Love the Allman Brothers and haven’t heard this and I’m looking forward to it! Within the opening bars, it’s already great. I-IV-V guitar, some organ, and drums. It’s funny looking at the other reviews written here a lot of them refer to this as jam band music, but I find it way more southern rock/blues than a jam band so far. After the first two tracks, they bring it back down a little bit for “Stormy Monday” it’s more ballad like but with some shredding guitar. A lot of jamming and having fun improvising is does not jam band make, but can see the comparisons especially on “Elizabeth Reed.” Love the singing on the “Whipping Post” and it’s 20 minutes long…which is probably too long, but I can forgive it because it is the Allman Brothers in 1971.

Great jams.

it took a couple of listens but I am a fan, yeah there's some unnecessary fret wanking but if you can put that to 1 side this is a great blues album

Usually i wouldn’t be in to these rock albums with songs that are 20 GODDAMN MINUTES long. but this one ate

The first half or so I was enjoying. I'm not a massive fan of live album, but you couldn't really tell it was one so it didn't make much of a difference. It just dragged on and on and on. Cut it down by at least 20 minutes and it's a miles better album

Generic bluesy jam-rock nonsense

Like the blues elements. Not so much the heavier guitar

Good live performance, not particularly memorable 3.25

Boring. I felt absolutely nothing listening to this.

Love the second half of this album

Wouldn't listen again

Not for me

Review starting at 8:30 on Jan 28th. ;) . First thoughts based on the album cover. - Hmm its going to be like a CCR type music. First song sounds like one my dad would like. Stormy Monday was really good, the guitar and piano were crazy. Inspired me how life would be with a super smart AI that was like your buddy. Woah a 19 min song, did not see that haha. Thought it was long lol and then the break in the middle of the solo for you dont love me. Toward the end of the You Dont love me, it made me fiddle with my feet. At 17:30 it sounded nice I liked that little sound. Makes sense that each song is long because it is a live concert. It was different than expected. I did not listen to the last 5 mins but I think I will come back to it tomorrow.

muito bom, uma mistura de blues e rock; bem instrumental, algumas músicas longas estilo pink floyd

Don’t like live recordings generally, and not my favorite genre, but a good vibe.

first time hear d 3/5

Not discounting the opinion of those that absolutely love the genre of music, I've never been a fan of jam-bands and jam-based music, and this album is no different. I listened through to the end, but found it was still uninteresting and a bit self-indulgent (23+ minutes of Whipping Boy?).

Some parts are awesome but some of the Jam sessions just go on and on.

These guys are badasses. Such a cool sound. Listened while I was biking and it was a perfect companion for that. Interesting and energetic.

Nice album indeed.

pre-listening: i am not looking forward to this one. it doesn't seem interesting for one, it's also a live album - which i don't really have a general fondness for. but maybe it won't be too bad. ohhh honestly i ended up really liking this!! the last 20 minute epic and in memory of elizabeth reed were stunning! i think im converted. i was expecting bad audio quality but it was really good! the vocals were amazing, but the instrumentation even more so. it did feel very american, i think, which is cool (i'm not). it's very nice as background music, when cooking or painting. i made a painting of a butchered fish when listening to this and it turned out great and it made me very happy. lots of joy. good stuff hell yeah yeehaw

It's fine to have on in the background. Nothing super exciting but not bad.

90% of this album are guitar solos, if you're into that maybe you'll enjoy it, but I found it uninteresting.

Early guitar gods at work. Beware.

Appealed to my 70s upbringing

okay first song statesboro blues. sounds alright so far, love a good guitar. tbh I already like the Allman brothers band so I kinda knew what to expect anyway. this has a really good guitar sound I like it, and it's groovy ig that's the right word to say? like it's got a good beat and everything. um I'm really stupid and silly so even tho I can read the lyrics I can't understand them so it has no impact on my enjoyment of the song or I'd say something bout them. sorry done somebody wrong okay nice opening. sounds funky too I like it. they sure know how to make a nice little dancey tune and his voice is good for it too. is this what the 70s were like? YO love a nice guitar this guitar gives me harmonica vibes unless it's actually an harmonica and not just a guitar. I don't hear harmonicas much in my life so now I'm a bit hopeful. okay it was maybe an harmonica and now this is the guitar. they don't sing much, huh? but when you make music this good, who needs to sing all through it? the lyrics aren't on so I can't read them and I can't hear cause I'm so silly but it feels like one of those happy songs that are only happy cause you're one step away from losing your marbles. does that make sense. you're insane and it's catching up to you. okay cool that was a good song. stormy monday. are these guys perpetually sad or something? is this the truth behind the American dream? anyway, it's got a slow opening oh my god these guys need to be in a jazz bar or something bro I'm telling you. I thought the allman brothers band was just like rock folk or something but admittedly I am very poor at recognising genres. this is a slow song I like it though I can imagine a wee guy singing this and feeling like he's a cooler version of Elvis. okay I read through the lyrics bro is going through it. I completely get it. we love a good song that mentions the days of the weeks. those are some of my favourite songs. especially when they're a bit depressing BUT this one also is really jazzy and funky god it's so good to hear. and I love a song that mentions the lord and begging for mercy. oh my god this song is almost 9 minutes long. they were really going through it then huh. but it is beautiful. one of those songs it's nice to listen to while just not doing anything and experiencing the world and the song together. oh okay it kicked up a little bit. it's funny how guitar and drums and what have you can be just as emotional and informative as a voice with words is. oh hell yeah more of this. I love this. idk what instrument it is. piano. something like that. HARMONICA?? I still don't know. do these guys have harmonicas and do they play them? something to ponder. wind instruments are really cool actually. all instruments are. this is like maybe a dad song. imagine this playing and you're like 4 or 5 and you walk into the kitchen relatively early evening and your dad is there humming along to this in a little apron and his best dress shirt. and he sees you and he smiles and picks you up. you dance together with giggles and hollers. you'll never truly know your father. but you'll always love him and you'll always be his little angel. and this is a memory that neither of you will forget. just embraced in eachothers arms in your own little world. you don't love me. I have to come back to this.

Impressive production for what is essentially a live album. Not really my cup of tea - it's dragging on for a bit too long, and probably is a better thing to witness live than to listen back to. Some good moments though, like "You Don't Love Me" that made this album worth checking.

Oh sweet Jesus another band that insists on making an album that is 70 plus minutes long. AHHHHHH. Well. It’s live, so I guess you can’t rip off the good fans of Fillmore East. I was more excited for the Cashew boys, but I guess the Allman brothers will do. Tie me to the whipping post. Soft. I need harshness from that tone. If you’re going to do this kind of blues, give some SNARL. This is a grimace at best. And not the best mascot in fast food history. Vocals are pretty good, but again, lacking something. We have an old new song that is an old song that is a new song we’d like to play for all you old people that are new to us here at this old building that is again, new to us as we are new versions of our old selves in this new day much like the old days. Anyway. It’s fine. This would be way better to absolutely blitzed and be there. Man. I mean. It’s a fairly smooth blues jam. Pleasant. Decent. I want more vitriol, but I guess that’s not coming. I’ll take this as a nice listen. 7 minutes into this song and I am as silent as the crowd. It’s just sort of meh. The beginning of the true guitar solo at that point is kinda fun. I know he’s praying for a more aggressive tone too. This was a long time ago. There’s also the odd mid 90’s jangle riff thrown in at one point. That’s was fun. While Lanta may be hot, this “song” is not. A real long jam song. It’s fine but it’s not gripping me. I love the singing in this one, finally feels alive vocally. Fully warmed up. Those vocal refrains are electric. Hell yeah brother. Let’s wind the evening down. Too slow for a concert. So quiet. It went forever. Was this while people were filing out? I get it boys. You’re very good at your instruments and you love to play them. I’ve tried playing guitar. It’s impossible. Anybody who can coordinate their hands in that fashion is a genetic marvel. I don’t mean tried once. I played for years and years and it’s still iron man played at quarter speed with 3-4 mistakes. With all that uh admitted. This album is too much. It’s wanking on stage and it’s too much. This wounds like it was written to impress one another while in the throes of a heroin coma. There were amazing, soaring moments, but there were also minutes and minutes and minutes where it sounded like I was listening to the roadie tune instruments and play the licks he’s been practicing. This was fine and electrifying at times, but nothing beyond the middle. 2.5 HIGHLIGHTS: Stormy Monday, Whipping Post

A great live album. Early on in their career, so not as polished as they would eventually become. Some really ABB classics on here. 4.5/5 Will definitely listen again

- I can see why this album of extended jams made them famous. The guitar skills are much more noteworthy in a live setting. - Some elements of the songs stand out, and none are bad, but they do get a bit repetitive. - I know it was typical for the time, but too much keyboard just deflates my enthusiasm. Instantly makes it feel dated.

You might be hard pressed to find someone of my age who has seen The Allman Brothers live. It was 2009 with a lineup far from the original but still including Gregg Allman and with greats like Warren Haynes, Butch Trucks, and Derek Trucks. They were spectacular. My dad, who took me, assumed I wouldn't have fun, that it wasn't the kind of music I would enjoy. But I'd been in jazz band in high school and found this to be a close enough approximation that I actually really enjoyed it. They even played a few tracks off this album at that show. Fast forward to today when this album shows up. Not only did it bring me back a little bit to that show with my dad, but it also was a hell of a listen. The sheer amount of skill on display here is mind blowing. Jam bands can be a little tiresome. Sometimes you just want them to get on with it. But I wouldn't say that here. Sure, it's easy to get a little lost upon first listen. But even on first listen you really do get the sense that there was just so much talent in that one band. Track after track after track, they just keep hitting you with these inspired, blistering solos. It's a joy to listen to, and really makes you want to listen again. My one gripe, and this is probably unfair given that they are one of the most famous jam bands, is that the songs that are longer than 10 minutes feel a little, well long. But that obviously can be forgiven because they are who they are. On the whole, I loved this. Absolute masterpiece of a jam band album. Makes me want to find some musicians to play with. Five stars. Standout Tracks: Statesboro Blues, Done Somebody Wrong, Stormy Monday, Hot 'Lanta

Banger!

I’ve always heard this was one of the greatest live albums ever recorded and have tried to get into it. The first track was always my stumbling block and I would inevitably not get past it. This time I persevered and made with each track, I could finally start to see the appeal. Once I got the last 3 tracks I got it- definitely not what I thought the allman brothers were. Also read the story of the album cover- band was grumpy with morning photo shoot with Jim Marshall. When Marshall went to reload camera, Duane saw his dealer walking by, jumped up, hit his stuff and then sat down before Marshall saw him. Everyone broke out laughing and you can see Duane hiding something in his hand. Great photo and great album.

This certainly hits the sweet spot. Great musicianship with incredible guitar work and bluesy rock vocals. The Allman Brothers band is high on my list of best American rock bands and they were truly hitting their stride with this one.

Rocking or jamming? It's a fine line here. They're at their peak, just months before Duane’s motorcycle accident. This is the lightning right before the storm of destruction.

This album was great background music, and a few songs really strong. A few great ones too, but overall an enjoyable listen. Captures time and place well.

Is it valid to call these guys my favorite jam band?

Should have been to the concert! A bit to long tracks but over all amazkng

The reasons I started this, is this kind of album. I never heard about it before. It's not something I would put on regularly but still I enjoyed listen to it and widen my music taste

4.75

Still a blues album worth listening to after more than 50 years.

this wasnt what i was expecting, but the shredding was solid, i could see myself listening to this again.

4.5

The Guitar Solo That Wouldn't End

20/1001 At Fillmore East is without a doubt the pinnacle of the Allman Brothers Band’s career. Consisting of 7 songs recorded live at the Fillmore East, with a good chunk of the set being unreleased tracks like Statesboro Blues, while the previously released tracks like In Memory of Elizabeth Reed or Whipping Post are extended jams allowing the band room to breath. Of course the extended jams can at times drag on a bit, though the high level of musicianship by the band generally makes sure that they avoid such blemishes, and they always seems to have a guitar or organ solo in the back pocket to spice things up whenever they drag on for a bit too long. Where they lose their focus a bit is on Hot ‘Lanta, which compared to the rest of the material is just a bit uninteresting, and is in desperate need of some lyrics to keep my retention. There is a reason why this is regarded as one of the greatest live albums of all time, songs like Statesboro Blues, In Memory of Elizabeth Reed and Stormy Monday as well as the always exceptional Whipping Post are definitely the real deal and some of the greatest guitar songs ever. It’s also worth pointing out, this is acquired taste, where you need to be in the right mood and have the time to listen to some of these behemoths of tracks. 4,5/5

absolute delight of a blues album

Two quotes from critics, one of the time (1971) and one from the early 2000s, captures the duality I felt while listening to it. The first quote said, "...it's ridiculous to preserve all these jams." While the second said, "...finest live rock...committed to vinyl...best blues rock band at its peak." And I agree with both somehow. Do I think the solo jams are something I want to listen to over and over? No. But I do think for a preservation of music of the time, it holds up.

Great band. Electric guitar mastery, great voice(s). Blues particularly live is not my favourite genre but they deliver! Sound much like Van Morrison (a compliment). 4/5

Definitely for me. Not my genre. Pretty boring.

Enjoyable. Band were obviously having a blast

Good songs but too much unaccompanied guitar wankery

Good musicians, but damn those jams are long. I don't think I'll ever put this album on by choice.

I listened only the first song but I already love it so much. I'm listening the last song and yes it's really amazing and absorbing album! I love this work of art!

Love good instrumental,,

If you like jamming, noodling and straight-up meandering guitar solos, this live album from the Allman Brothers is for you. I love the sound of the guitar, it can make so many unique and interesting noises when played well and can be a legit art form. Too much guitar, with little or no structure can still cool, but, "At Fillmore East" was a challenging listen, so many jams and so much wanking. Considering there was 7 songs through 4 sides of wax, I feel the need to hear some 2-3 minutes pop songs and get off the couch. If you're in the mood for...jamming, this is fine, if not, you're out of luck.

Decent enough, but similar to lots of other blues bands. Nothing jumped out to me as exceptional or original. 3/5

Бесконечная джем музыка, что мы очень любим и ценим, в жанре, который я переношу с трудом - хмм... Лучшая песня - In Memory of Elizabeth Reed.

You know, I can really see how this would be some kind of holy bible for fans of jammy blues rock. But man, that person most certainly is not me. Everything just ended up blending together into an 80-minute, homogenous mush. Definitely not unpleasant, but not something I ever see myself returning to.

meh

This album was a little bit of a roller coaster for me. I went in thinking I probably wouldn't like it - white boy blues and all that - but enjoyed the first couple of tracks and was ready to revise my thinking. But then, I don't know, it's too much of a live album and the songs go on and on with endless guitar riffs and I just got tired of it.

sometimes a bit repetitive, but still catchy and fun. Solid 7

Yeah, excellent. 4/5.

I have listened to this album multiple times before starting this list. It took a while to grow on me, but the driving beat makes it a listen I cannot let go off. Especially the bass is working magic driving the music onward

A live double album with just seven songs on it might seem to be a bit self indulgent, and to be fair it probably is. However, this is amiable southern rock with a bluesy lolloping rhythm that passes the time in an acceptable way. The real surprise is that the Allman brothers weren’t hoary old rockers when they recorded this, but they were only in their mid twenties.

Not to bad live album, quite bluesy, they take the time to let the songs live and grow.

I would enjoy to go to this show, fun album Will I listen to again: 75%

Kanske inte min kopp te, men kompetent. Svag trea

Never was as enthralled as most people with the Almonds but I do respect the musicianship, the following and contributions of the band. So I'll rate it high.

A decent album that wanders too much. Seriously, two 20 minute songs with massive solo sections.

This had some hostage vibes

Surprised at the low ratings. One of the best live albums ever with some of the greatest guitarists ever. 5 stars. Easy

I am not a fan of two things: live albums and unnecessarily long songs. Oh look, a 7 song album spanning almost 80 mins! It is to note that this is their first album and it still holds a special place in music history. I actually think the rambling solos come through better live with the hiss of the old technology but it's all just too long for my liking. The little god bless america riff at the end of You Don't Love Me made me chuckle.

Przyjemny blues rock. Zdecydowanie bardziej nastawiony na instrumentalne popisy, niż same piosenki. Co w sumie naturalne przy występie live. Perkusista mi się spodobał, był mega clean, krystalicznie czysty dźwięk, super technika. Może wrócę kiedyś na chwilę, ale raczej nie na stałe. Fajna muzyka, ale nie coś, czego słuchałbym na stałe. 3,5/5

Muszę napisać recenzję po polsku, bo nie wiem jak ubrać to w słowa po angielsku. Rozumiem niższe oceny, bo płyta ma trochę vibe "jazzu do kotleta", ale moim zdaniem jest w tym trochę więcej rock&rollowego ducha żeby podbić albumowi ocenę. Jakby było parę mocniejszych solówek/duetów dałbym nawet 4. Widziałem też, że zespół miał jakiś problem z harmonijką? Dla mnie super pasowało i utwory gdzie się wybijała były jednymi z lepszych.

No taki lajvik, nie dla mnie, w tle może lecieć, nuda.

While I prefer studio albums to live recordings, this one is one of the exceptions. It really good start to finish. Be forewarned that if you dislike long jam sessions in your live cuts, you probably will be triggered listening to this album.

A very good example of a band that could really play well together live (the other being The Grateful Dead I think). The actual tracks are irrelevant as their musicianship and contagious enthusiasm is everything. A special album.

These guys were just straight jamming.

Amazing live band playing 5/5

K: 8/10: very listenable, great for cleaning/hosting, definitely long, mostly engaging C: 7/10 a lot of fun moments. I love the blues but jam bands are always more fun to play in than they are to listen to. Very great recording of a live album. Can see how influential it is. They really know their blues.

Great instrumental, but a bit too long for my liking

very boring

Honestly, I'm not 100% sure if this whole jam band scene is really my thing. I do love what I'm hearing, but most of it just kind of goes in one ear and out the other. Nothing really sticks with me all that much. But like I said, I did still really enjoy this, and maybe one day, I'll really get into it. Oh yeah, I also heard the 2003 version of this album, because it made the most sense to me. 8/10

Who doesn’t enjoy a bit of improvisional blues? Quite a lot of people by the looks of it! Anyway I did so there!

I guess this is a little too dirty 70's for me. I love many songs by this group, so was hoping to hear a little more polish and less fuzz

Mortal words don't describe this behemouth of an album. This is by far and away the greatest "live album" ever put to tape and stands up there with the greatest albums of all time. The Allman Brothers were the pinnacle of southern blues sound, but what set them apart was their on stage performances. This one has been played hundreds of times in my cans and will play thousands to come. Liz Reed has potential to be the greatest guitar track ever put to tape and the Whipping Post is other worldly. This album is on fire from the drop of the needle and is an absolute must listen to for any music fan on planet earth, or not... If I could rate it 6 stars, you could bet your ass that I would.

Very jammy with a real Grateful Dead vibe. It's certainly not my favorite style of music these days, but it gave me a nice warm feeling today. So split between two and three stars, I'm going towards the generous end.

The Allman Brothers Band - At Fillmore East While I didn't enjoyed as much as others, it's still a good live album. There are for sure big highlights throughout the album, but some of them do feel repetitive and quite dull at times. But honestly, this is good! 1.- Statesboro Blues = 7/10 2.- Done Somebody Wrong = 5/10 3.- Stormy Monday = 8/10 4.- You Don't Love Me = 6/10 5.- Hot 'Lanta = 9/10 6.- In Memory of Elizabeth Reed = 7/10 7.- Whipping Post = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.4/10

Eh. I dislike live albums. The band is ok, though.

Ah... The Allman Brothers... Great band... CLASSIC, ICONIC, canon! Yup. I am not a big fan of "classic rock" though... and this IS absolutely full stop hardcore sweaty faded tee-shirt classic as classic rock gets! Because this is totally iconic and totally a major major canonical band within the world of music and one can point a finger on the definition of classic rock and here they are, I must give this album, which IS great in its own rights, a lot of credit. It is well deserved. Just too bad I r e a l l y don't listen to "classic rock" much at all.

First time ever listening to. Amazing band, very tight. Proficient on their instruments. I like jam music but not quite a fan of the all musical jams, no real chorus or hooks like Grateful Dead has. Lots of bluesy rock.

Liveplatta och låtar som tar slut imorgon. Nix!

I fucking love old school bluesy rock music

Eh, a lot of jamming… rock-ish

Listened to this in the car on a road trip and half napped through most of it Kinda good for what it is

ok, nice blues, blu grass guitars

Brevity is... wit. The interplay between Hammond organ and lead guitar is the sound of late 60s-early 70s blues rock that I love, but once we get past the opening 2 tracks and end up going several through 8min+ jams, I want some space to breathe.

Classic. I love this album so much!

help! i’m being held hostage by a jam band!

Not bad

Alright

Pretty solid listen, traditional 70s rock album nothing to crazy, liked that it was live

2.5/5 Muy Repetitivo

Saved Prior: None Off Rip: Stormy Monday, Whipping Post Cutting Edge: None Overall Notes: Really hard to capture the magic of live music on record. Glad it's here so I could experience it 50 years after the fact, but ultimately succumbs to You Just Had To Be There-itis.

I mean if you love '70s jam Rock, it rocks. My only issue is the 20 minute songs tho

It was pretty good. The songs are mostly kinda long but they were pretty good. The background noise was great too. Pretty good for a live album!

Cool!

I think I would have enjoyed the not live version of this a WHOLE LOT more.

Do not really know the Allman Brothers and am not really a fan of Southern Rock and am also not really a fan of Live albums. Despite this I did enjoy parts of the album when they got their groove on. In places it was a little noodly and I guess you had to be there. Not sure its the best live album ever but hey ho.

Loved it!

The Allman Brothers Band - At Fillmore East (1971) At Fillmore East captures the raw energy and sheer virtuosity of one of rock’s greatest bands at their peak. My connection to this album feels personal—during morning commutes with my young son earlier this year, we’d listen to music podcasts, one of which delved deep into the Allmans. That episode left him transfixed, and when this album came up, I couldn’t wait to dive in myself. From the opening notes, it’s clear why this record has stood the test of time. Duane Allman’s playing is mesmerizing—fluid, soulful, and utterly transformative. Together with Dickey Betts, the two guitarists weave intricate melodies and blistering solos with precision and passion. Meanwhile, Gregg Allman's smoky, soulful voice and earful organ playing are the emotional backbone of this record, grounding the band’s virtuosity with raw blues power. The rhythm section—Berry Oakley’s thundering bass and the twin drummers, Butch Trucks and Jaimoe—locks everything into a groove that feels both tight and untamed. Tracks like In Memory of Elizabeth Reed and Whipping Post are the album’s crown jewels, showcasing improvisation and interplay on a level that’s nothing short of stunning. However, for all its brilliance, At Fillmore East isn’t perfect. The extended jams, clocking in at 13, 19, and 23 minutes, occasionally drift into indulgence. Add in the deluxe editions with over six hours of music, and the sheer scale can be overwhelming for the casual listener. Even with these flaws, At Fillmore East is essential. It captures the Allman Brothers at their electrifying best, just months before Duane’s tragic passing. The album cemented their place in rock history and remains a benchmark for Southern rock and jam-band culture. For me, it’s a strong 4/5—a thrilling, soulful performance from a very special band. Did/Do I own this release? No. Does this release belong on the list? As far as live albums go, this is the boss. Would this release make my personal list? The Allman Brothers would certainly feature in my list, though I’m undecided on which album. Will I be listening to it again? Absolutely—this is a good time.

What can I say about the greatest official live album

A landmark in southern rock, jam music, and rock in general. Just let the boys play! Like many great albums of the early 70's that stand out for being different, there was quite the fight to allow this album to happen, We are better off because of it. Though not as easy to listen to as a studio album, it incorporates the energy and passion the band had for the music and led to people changing their minds about how they would listen and experience going forward.

My heart sank a little when I saw an 80-minute blues album pop up, but this was a very nice surprise. The jams were awesome, with specific highlights being You Don't Love Me, In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, and Whipping Post.

Mais uma vez, é difícil ouvir e gostar de um álbum sem estar no estado de espírito certo. Não achei nada de especial. E apesar de muitos álbuns ao vivo serem espetaculares, prefiro conhecer a obra que deu origem em estúdio. Um disco de 1971 que carrega o peso dos anos.

It’s the second time I’ve listened to this album. Generally I enjoy this kind of progressive, southern jam rock, and I know this is considered one of the quintessential live albums, but I don’t feel it in the way I’d like to feel it. I mean, I want it to strike me on a visceral level - I really do - but my soul doesn’t buy it. It is enjoyable to listen to. It contains some absolute masterful musicianship; the electric guitar shines down from otherworldly planes on more than a few occasions. These arrangements should send shivers down my spine, but alas, they don’t. I wonder if it has to do with familiarity? I appreciate the Allman Brothers Band’s radio hit singles but they don’t appear on this album; perhaps the lack of the known contributes to my underwhelmed sensation? Something did stir me between 12:03 to 12:47 of You Don’t Love Me. The hillbilly guitar part spoke briefly to my soul, although only for a short moment. I vote overall based on how the album makes me feel, and it disappoints me to offer At Filmore East a mere 3, because from a technical and sonic perspective it rates much higher. This was the most difficult album for me to rate among the project so far.

great live album

Can honestly say I haven't ever listened to much of Allman Brothers, but this wasnt bad. Might have to give them a listen beyond their song that used to be the Top Gear theme.

It took me a while to get through it but I enjoyed it while I was listening. Great guitar, although it feels like a jam band the music is really cohesive. Some of the tracks were really long. Rating: Had some difficulty deciding on whether a 3 or 4 rating but let's go 4.

A great live album. Few bands could do that Jam thing and make it interesting and enjoyable. At Fillmore East is a good document of ABB at their meteoric rise and before the deaths of Duane Allman and Berry Oakley in 71' and 72' respectively.

Listened to the original album tracklist - not the supersized reissue. I think that was the right choice - 2 to 6 hours of jams is too much for a workday, but an hour 20 of jams is just right for cranking out some paperwork. These fellas could certainly jam.

This album did nothing at all for me. It just happened and then it finished. Utterly forgettable.

Enjoyable but I felt like I had to really, really lean in and engage to pull anything out of it - I kept losing concentration.

23 minute version of Whipping Post makes this an automatic 5. Everything else is just gravy, the best gravy you've ever had.

The great southern-blues rock jam band. While technically impressive, I often found myself thinking that I would prefer to listen to Grateful Dead. At Fillmore East can occasionally meander and lose steam, while Live / Dead flows a lot more naturally in its dynamics.

⭐️⭐️⭐️

1971. Florida. Blues rock. Southern rock

Ok lyssning. Några omöjligt långa låtar. Men sköna jam.

Kan inte säga att jag lyssnat på dem tidigare, men är ju svag för bluesrockiga gitarrer och för mig är det här härlig lyssning rakt igenom utan att jag tröttnar. Kommer lyssna mer på dem.

I’ll say it, the best live album of all time.

Sometimes I felt like I was personally there, at the concert, over half a century ago. That's how mesmerizing this record is.

Boring

4/5. Guitar solo: the album. Don't get me wrong, these are some very nice guitar solos. It can be a lot sometimes and I feel like each side can be taken in bursts. Listening all the way through front to back can be overwhelming but gosh darn do these solos rock. Hard to pick a favorite honestly because it does feel like one continuous guitar solo. Just great stuff though, will definitely listen to this one again. Best Song: In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, Stormy Monday, Whipping Post

December 1, 2024 how 'bout we cool it with the long live albums this week (this comes hot on the tail of ELP and MC5)

Always the greatest! Listen again: yes Purchase for my collection: own it Favourite Song:

70's Rock.

Some good stuff here, but tediously overlong.

It was waaaaayyy tooooo loooooong

Reminded me of being in high school and listening to my brother's music. Have a much stronger appreciation for it now. I didn't remember it being as bluesy as it is.

Quite the bangin live album.

Great live album. Really showcases their talent.

There are some decent jams on the last two tracks, but the generic blues melodies kills it for me.

It gets better in the end, but I would've asked for a refund if I went to that show.

The track "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed" was really nice, but that's the only thing I liked about the whole album. Generic and annoying blues rock jams all the way through.

2/5 Not bad, but this just sounds like music of a bygone era. I bet all the musicians were massive smokers and drinkers. I wonder what they were like as people and what type of jokes they made.

3.5

I listened to this one a few days ago and found it tedious, but on second listen I really enjoyed it as background music to drive me forward while working. The guitar skills on display are amazing, but I still think it is pretty tedious at times. Glad I listened again, we'll see if I revisit. 3/3.5

Love live music, HATE live albums.

Classic.

I really like the Allman Brothers studio albums, so this was quite disappointing for me, some classics on this recording but good lord, some of the instrumental/solo sections drag on for some time without doing anything especially interesting.

The Allman Brothers have always been a "know the hits but don't often listen to them" kind of band for me. Much bluesy-er than I expected in a good way. Will definitely be giving this one another spin very soon.

I know they were a famous jam band, but I don’t want to sit through over an hour of it. I did the math, and the average song length on the album is around 11 minutes. That’s not always bad, but here, it’s just boring.

Self indulgent guitar nonsense

If someone asked for the prototype of blues rock, this is what I would reach for.

What a f-ing record this is – searing, magisterial, transcendent. The soloing is expansive and patient, but also insistent and frequently sizzling. No jam band has ever excelled this. Greg A was as good a singer as his brother was a guitarist, though the long instrumental passages are what makes this. How is Eat a Peach not on this list?

not really to my taste at all even after trying to listen in full, so hard to rate. favs: none

What a grower! What a find! In memory of Elizabeth Reed? Wow! This is a sure fire playlister at the Café Kelvinos’ afternoon Espresso sessions.

Just so boring

Fun fact, I walked out of an Allman brothers concert when I was younger. Can take only so many guitar solos.

A bit too instrumental

Probably a cool show to be at

Super chill

This album was ok

Low 3

Why u live album

Sick 50 min guitar solo

Un disco doble, vendido al precio de sencillo (no fueron The Clash pioneros en eso tampoco) y además en directo. Pocos temas y de duración larga, algunos ocupando toda la cara del disco. Los Allman fueron el puntal del Rock Sureño, rock progresivo, etc. Muy influyentes entonces (que se lo digan a Lynyrd Skynyrd o Bob Seeger) no han perdido reputación. A mi me gustan más sus discos de estudio, sobre todo Brothers and Sisters con Ramblin´man . Por ejemplo el Whipping Post de este directo en el Fillmore se me hace demasiado largo mientras que en su disco de debut es bastante más lucida. Stormy Monday comienza con vos vaporosa pero luego va ganando fuerza, aunque me sigue gustando más la original de T Bone Walker. Este disco parece la continuación lógica entre Cream / King Crimson y el progresive de Yes y todo lo demás hasta que vino el Punk y acabó con esas inacabables ansis de lucimiento instrumental. Otros discos del 71: Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV, Marvin Gaye - What's Going On? David Bowie - Hunky Dory, The Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers, The Who - Who's Next, Don Mclean- American Pie, John Lennon – Imagine, T.

White guy blues is so fucking boring.

Great blues, rock vibe, classic

# Playlist track - Statesboro Blues # Notes - It is not a *bad* album, but it loses itself way too many times and for way too long. - At some point between the never ending solos you're just tired of listening to pretty much the same thing over and over. - Go somewhere else if you want to listen to Allman Brothers.

Ordinarily I find long, jammy live albums quite boring but this was good, great performances and it didn't feel too overdone. Nice as a bit of relaxing background music (in the best way possible, not an insult). I'd give this more of a 3.5 but I'll round up to a 4 Highlights: Trouble No More, In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, You Don't Love Me

Please, I beg for mono. "You don't love me" has the drums very hard on the right side and it destroys my enjoyment of the song. Guitar riffs are good, the rare vocals glide through the instrumentals, but holy shit I'm getting allergic to 60's-80's bands discovering what stereo sound was and ruining their record because of it. If it was good enough for the Beatles, it should've been good enough for you too. this shit funky though 6/10

Rambly rock

Some songs have some long drawn out parts, otherwise I loved it! Great blues rock!!

Kick ass southern boogie. Who needs lyrics when you have 12 min guitar solos. The songs can run a little long. But overall still cool

lovely prog rock

Iconic album. Rightly considered one of the greatest live albums. I miss the album days with one song taking an entire side. Duane was a huge loss for music lovers. Jamming and extended solos all day.

No thanks. This is just 80minutes of guitar wank. Really, really did not get into this.

I appreciate the musical talent but I am not a jam band fan. 18-22 minute songs, mostly instrumental? No thanks, just not for me!

Let me first say that I LOVE The Allman Bros. Heck, I even own this one on vinyl. But, I'm just not a fan of live albums counting as "albums." If you like jam bands then this is mandatory listening, so I get why it's recommended, but to me, even though I enjoy the noodle-fest, I don't think this is a great choice for a must-hear live album, let alone a list of ALL albums you must hear.

I dug it

I enjoyed the live recording. Very well done.

Outstanding collection of live tracks highlighting the classic lineup of the ABB. Listening to Duane Allman playing slide guitar never seems to get old.

Country blues jams aren’t normally my thing but this album has a lot of gems. The Allman brothers were a gift to American music. Betts and Oakley are brilliant as well. For me it’s a 4.5 so rounding up.

I'm not super into jam bands but this really worked for me. Some quality organ sound. Some really good guitars. Even in the longer jam sessions, they never felt 'lost'.

Reading about this album, I'm really glad the producers decided to cut down longer songs into more manageable jam sessions. I think it really helps the entire album overall. This is very good and only gets lost in itself once in a while.

Not my kind of music tbh! But it was upbeat and fill off tasty licks and solos.

Some good riffs and moments but the solos were far too long and boring and since there’s so many it ruined the experience.

7.5/10

They clearly are all talented musicians but zzzzzzzzz

I ended up liking this one quite a bit more than I expected to. It really caught my attention in some of the jams. Unfortunately, it also got a bit long and self-indulgent on some of the tracks (22 min wtf?)   Standouts Done Somebody Wrong 3/5

Ahhh, the souths Grateful Dead. I understand if y'all don't like jam oriented bands. But these songs minus the jam sections are some of the greatest rock forward genre blending songs of all time. Live at the Fillmore East captures the Brothers knee deep in a USA and World tour in 1971 on the curtails of their sophmore releases Idlewild South. Reaping success from being one of the tightest most talented group of musicans to come from the southern states. Its a peak inside the blistering rythmn and lead sections of live ABB shows. They weren't just a novelty. These dudes can play.

Once youve heard one you've heard them all

This was a decent listen, in that southern blues rock kind of way. Kind of in the same vein as that Skynyrd, Outlaws, Marshall Tucker style. They take the long jam to new lengths, the last track announced on the album as “a little number” and checking in at 23 minutes. I like a long track more than most but damn.

I’ve always felt that when it comes to listening to the blues, you gotta get in and get out pretty quickly. Unfortunately this album is probably not a good litmus test for that. Live recordings are very hard to pull off and these guys do it well here. The band is tight and some parts where both guitarists are harmonizing are pretty solid. Those reasons probably earn it as 3-star for me. But damn…do we really need 20+ minute jams? Clearly a listen where if you leave to get a beer, only to return and realize you probably didn’t miss much.

Right between a 3 and 4 for me. Strong vibes and I love a good blues set. But there are plenty of other places to look if you want good blues. Heavy reliance on standards limits the score as well.

Nice.

This is fine. The 20 min jams weren’t as bad as I initially feared. 2.75/5

I usually hate live albums, but this one's not bad. Not sure if it's the genre, but it just adds character. I feel like I should be walking downtown or through a park 😁 This long form instrumental music tends to lose the attention of my fast-paced, ever-growing state of mind pretty quickly however. I think I want a chance to learn it be inspired through my music, and slowly evolving ambient stuff doesn't quite fit that bill

3.75

I don't usually like live albums, but this was some nice jamming. I was positively surprised by the quality of the recording, I could hardly tell this wasn't a studio album. I wish it had more structure, though. 3.5/5 stars

Oh great, another boring live album.

I mean, it's a good example of jam blues. It sounds good, they play a lot classic blues standards...but it's still a live album. I'll never be a fan of live albums with very few exceptions.

Quintessential Noodly

An acceptable level of Noodly Lou and the Turd Herders

Live jams

Legendary live album by a legendary live, jamming band. Exquisit record.

Rost-Rock

great music, great vibe. ironically was just at a restaurant fillmore east, based off the old venue

Everything that’s great about southern rock in a proto-jam format

A classic. 6 songs over 2 records. The genesis of jam band records?

Great music, nothing bad here. Not totally my style, but I still enjoyed it.

They got skills but mostly, I felt nothing and will remember nothing (exception: In Memory of Elizabeth Reed).

a bit long! but damn i love blues man

I feel like jam bands are best appreciated live, rather than on record. I enjoy the Allman brothers, but some of these versions of their songs just go on forever. Because of that, I give it 2/5.

I've been to an Allman Brothers show and I can confirm it's one neverending jam. Cool if you're on mushrooms (which everyone was), bad if you just want to hear some of their songs (which I did)

Love the jamming. Never cared much for their studio albums, these live versions are great though.

This is one of my favorite albums! I remember hearing "Hot 'Lanta" for the first time and I was immediately taken aback by the musicianship of the group. It's still one of my faves by them! After hearing the live versions of their music, their studio albums just don't do it for me, haha.

Surprised how much I enjoyed this one. Great blues rock sound from start to finish.

My prior album was Incubus. Incubus seriously need to spend some time listening to The Allman Brothers and unclench their butt cheeks a bit. Some easy jam band blues performed well. Listening via Spotify, it sounds a bit muffled/dull, which I think was limitations of an old live recording.

Had me dancing along for 80 minutes

Wow! This was a fun listen. From the first minute to the last this was an exploration journey. Some of the tracks feel like they're an album on their own. Going in the library and will listen again. Get's a solid 5*

I really didnt get on with this at all. 1/5

You know what makes me feel like I’m dying? 22 fucking minutes of the Whipping Post.

They're probably proud of this record. No reason not to be. They're good at what they do. It's good background music. And that's what it automatically becomes, because they can't keep my attention. Favorite song: you don't love me

A magnificent live album. Whipping Post rips.

Bluesy but feel like a jam that didn't really go anywhere. High 2.

Erinomaisen kuuloista liveksi. Hienosti osaavat soittaa. Liian pitkiä biisejä vaan, niillä ei ole muuta suuntaa kuin kasvaa, mikä käy aikas yksitoikkoiseksi.

Jatkuvan variaation muutos ikuiseksi toistoksi.

i may not be a hillbilly but damn these boys sure can play

At Fillmore East is the first live album by the Allman Brothers Band, originally released in 1971. Probably the best live album ever? Here the Allmans are perfectly captured in what is their best era (in my opinion). The dueling guitars and duel drummers really make their sound so heavy. I couldn't imagine having the privilege of seeing them live in this era. The band is tight and firing on all cylinders. Those who don't like jam bands probably won't dig this record but I find it is an easier live album for the average music fan to digest rather than something like Live Dead. The jams are structured for the most part and are rocking. A highlight on here for me is "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed", which was sure to get the crowd out of their seats.

I enjoyed this. Good live rock album

The Good: great classic rock! The Bad: too many jam songs. The Ugly: no weed no joy... Of I were interested in listening to a jam band, I'd go and see them live... 3* just because, but I don't believe I will be listening to this album again soon, and I love rock, and blues...

Sympa

Not really what I thought this band sounded like. It was definitely better than what I had imagined, but nothing that I'd go back to.

Inoffensive but just not very interesting

These guys know how to jam. One of one of the better quality live albums I’ve heard.

Songs are a little long for my taste. Not a jam band fan.

I can see where this is good. Bluesy stuff that I could listen to again

Pretty dull stuff. Nothing remotely interesting on here.

Buen disco en vivo, excelente habilidad de todos los músicos, algunes canciones son algo largas para mi gusto, no lo volvería a escuchar

Jam band

I would enjoy this if I was actually there live cuz it was indeed a jam. Just fine though as an album. Pretty awesome guitars though, just a bit long

Notable track: Stormy Monday

Very good live band and a pity that Duane (and Berry) died so young.

4.3 1x

Classic jam band funk, live.

It’s fine.

Live at Fillmore East is not just a live album — it’s a defining moment in American rock history. The Allman Brothers Band captured lightning in a bottle over two nights in March 1971, delivering a performance that’s raw, masterful, and completely electrifying. This is the sound of a band at its absolute peak, blending Southern rock, blues, and jazz into something uniquely their own. Duane Allman and Dickey Betts’ guitar interplay is nothing short of legendary, weaving improvisations that feel both spontaneous and impossibly tight. Tracks like “Whipping Post” and “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed” stretch past the ten-minute mark without ever losing momentum — these aren't jams for the sake of jamming; they’re journeys. The band’s chemistry is off the charts. Gregg Allman’s soulful vocals and Hammond organ work bring depth and grit, while the rhythm section drives everything forward with relentless precision. Even the quieter moments are steeped in emotion and finesse. Live at Fillmore East sets the gold standard for what a live rock album should be: urgent, expansive, and alive. It’s more than a performance — it’s a masterpiece. Favorite song: "Whipping Post"

I've been aware of the Allman Brothers all my life, apparently in name only. What a great album and an instant classic to be sure.

this is fine for what it is but for me personally i can't imagine a scenario where I'd put this on over a grateful dead set. simply a matter of taste, i think everyone only has room for one jam band in their life!

Reggae

This was a really awesome album to have on as background noise while I worked. Super groovy. But I also know this is a live album. Seriously, how did people sit through the 25 minute jam sesh that closes the album without drugs?

Great live performance. You don't love me stole the show

Can’t make songs that are 22 minutes and 90% guitar solo nowadays due to Woke

Look, I'm not a rock-blues fan, nor am I hug fan of jam bands. There's some nice elements (and there's no denying the musical ability of these bros) but I can't listen to blues harmonica for 23 minutes. I mean, c'mon.

I couldn’t cope

Pretty cool southern rock and blues album. Allman Brothers would have been a trip seeing in their prime. Especially if you are a fan of guitar work. It's unfortunate that the good rock and roll is in the underground and all the popular stuff is either too jock rock or artists who parody other bands (Greta van fleet, sheepdog). One day it'll see the mainstream... Maybe.

very good

Astonishing playing but a bit indulgent for my tastes. Fretboard wankery extraordinaire.

SOLID

Super long songs but mostly a jam set. Really good stuff in there but it is a mood. Good background jam sesh.

Gosto muito. Parece Pappo

This album is so good, makes me want to turn out the lights, lights some candles, get a good Whiskey and just listen.
