How the Allman Brothers Band Helped Make Jimmy Carter President 🎸

The Georgia-based group provided crucial early support for his 1976 White House run, creating a bond that lasted for decades

The governor greeted Allman, “Come on in. I got some new Elmore James albums we can listen to.” As they walked inside, Mr. Carter praised Allman’s songwriting and started “rattling off the lyrics” to his songs.

The Allman Brothers Band, Eat a Peach, 1972 on Capricorn

Third studio album from the Allman Brothers Band, with a mixture of live and studio recordings, including some from the Fillmore East performances in 1971. Released after Duane Allman died in a motorcycle crash in Macon Georgia. The extended “Mountain Jam” is spread across two sides, B and D.

The song “One Way Out” is actually by Elmore James and Sonny Boy Williamson – I didn’t even know that was its actual title (“‘Cause there’s a man down there, might be your man I don’t know.”).

Famous cover by W. David Powell and J.F. Holmes from Wonder Graphics out of Georgia – with no album title appearing on the cover (apparently it was still being decided upon when the graphics were finalized).

My copy via Vinyl Destination (RIP) in Lowell, MA.

Will have to read if just for the Allman Brothers' interview and Rolling Stone piece. Seems like a good, alternate "Almost Famous" source material.

'Splendor in the Short Grass': Romancing the Stoned

"[T]he best of the New Journalism is still bracing -- for its flair but also for its earnest presumption and for its access to what people, high and low, were actually up to."

Duane Allman - An Anthology LP Vinyl Record For Sale https://recordsalbums.com/allman-brothers-vinyl-records-albums-lps/4081-duane-allman-an-anthology-lp-vinyl-record-for-sale.html #Allman #DuaneAllman #AllmanBrothers #TheAllmanBrothers #AllmanBros #TheAllmanBros #Anthology #DuaneAllmanVinyl #DuaneAllmanVinylRecords #DuaneAllmanRecords #DuaneAllmanAlbums #DuaneAllmanLPs #lps #vinyl #records #albums #vinylrecords #recordalbums #SouthernRock #SouthernRockLPs

The #AllmanBrothers recently released this 4/7/72 show recorded only months after Duane's death. So it's unique in that Dicky Betts is the sole guitarist. But it sounds great and I've never heard Berry Oakley's bass so high in the mix. You can really focus in on his playing and what made him so great.

The prompt is Idle
The Allman Brothers Band, “Idlewild South” 1970

The #AllmanBrothers' second album was reissued with their first eponymous album as the double album Beginnings after their bar-raising live album “At Fillmore East” and the popular success of “Eat a Peach.”

I know what you’re thinking: #SouthernRock, rednecks with guitars, but while they arguably launched that genre, let’s remember their jazzy, dare I say, #JamBand side, and two drummers - TWO DRUMMERS - that drove songs like pile drivers, not to mention #GreggAllman's world-worn vocals and those two lead guitars. OK, the guitar thing became a southern rock cliche, but when you have musician's musician #DuaneAllman on slide, it’s a whole different animal.

Tragedy and excess would reduce the band to a less adventurous shadow of its former self, but their first two albums are a gumbo of #BluesRock weight, instrumental finesse, southern soul, and inspiration.

Dickey Betts, cofounder of the Allman Brothers Band, died last week. In this essay for Paste, Matt Mitchell remembers his work on "Eat a Peach" and "Brothers and Sisters." "I contend that, between February 1972 and August 1973, there was no greater rocker walking among us than Dickey Betts," Mitchell writes. "Most musicians would kill to write 'Blue Sky,' 'Jessica' and 'Ramblin’ Man' over the course of a long career; Betts did it in just 16 months’ time, a creative peak few musicians of his caliber, genre and longevity have ever paralleled."
