Man, I miss those good times with authentic rock n roll. Not this crap they play today. Allman Bros. were my favorite! They were supposed to receive a lifetime achievement award at the 2012 Grammy's. Did anyone catch that moment???
i wish people still played this shit 2day, im 15 wtf i wanna go 2 a concert where dudes are bangin chicks while hittin bongs and drinking beer and driving good old camaros, mustangs, and oldsmobiles, now i go 2 a concert and its full of cops and i dont even have to go on my tip toes cus the crouds a bunch of 5th graders, listenen to some shit ass song with a dumbass beat made by an even dumber guy who for some fucken reason is dressed like a damn woman wtf i wanna burn this song into pepls brain
@mcblair96 First off, duded didn't bang chicks at concerts back then. People behaved, and still had an awesome time, bongs weren't allowed, neither was drinking beer. Yeah, we smoked pot, but doobies only. IT WAS THE BEST ROCK AND ROLL. And the Allman Bros were in the top 5. You're right. The crap that goes on at concerts ruins it. No cops back then. And NOBODY was violent at concerts. We all went to have a good time - not jack up people.
I remember when this came out in '71 - it's the best jam ever! Whenever it came on, on the radio, I would dance around on top of my mustang!!! One of the best groups ever.
In March, 1971 G-d said unto The Allman Brothers: “You may have these nights at The Fillmore to play and become as ONE. You will be of ONE HEART, ONE SOUL, ONE SPIRIT and you will perform as ONE”. And it happened. Whipping Post and Mountain Jam echoed throughout the heavens that night touched by divine inspiration. G-d heard it, and it was good. And some 34 years later He gave unto us You Tube so we could hear it again. And it is STILL Good. Because The Road Goes On Forever. Thank G-d.
@jncyt - I saw them that weekend at the Fillmore on 3/12/71 (early show) and the best part was they were only the middle act. Johnny Winter came on after them and blew what was left of the roof off after Duane and the boys wrecked the joint! Whatta friggin' show! I still haven't come all the way down yet. Dem wuz da daze!
@probrojeffro I don't know if he wrote the song, as I no longer have the album, but the first I am aware of this song was a mid to late 60s version by Donovan Lietch. Check him out. He wasn't really a rocker and I do prefer the Allman Brother's to his version. He was kind of a hippie folk artist from the British Isles.
You've got it! Donovan's little pop song was the take off point for this monster jam. You can hear it in places, just as you can hear 'Joy to the World' for a couple of bars.
i listen this track thousand times and the invention of MP3 was really a blessing, never change record at Berry's solo.
I don't play guitar but i can sing the whole song, now every solo, Whatever it is the guitar, the organ , the drum or the beautifull plectrum bassline of Berry .
i am affraid every version after won't be like this
i saw the allman brothers (i was born in macon too) @ capt. alex restaurant ballroom in 1972 (age 18), riviera beach, fl. they played from 8:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. straight/one @ a x taking a break. I wish I remembered entire concert; however seconols and booze f'd me up. but what i remember was awesome. they were just coming out and i was blown away!! my deceased uncle in macon was an auto mech. & duane allman took his car to him for repair. archie fnd ring in car. duane said keep it.
One of my favorite bass players. Listening to him on this live album was amazing. He knew when to go low, he knew when to rise up in pitch with the soloist, and he had such a great tone and feel. If you listen to the Live cuts from Live at the Fillmore and from Eat a Peach you will begin to understand how Berry thought about his role as a bass player. He was more than a bass player, he was a major architect of the feel and sound of the band.The man was and is a bass Monster!
Sept 23 1971 to be exact,a concert that 40 years later is still talked about as one of the most legendary concerts ever..music changed forever that day :)))Oh yes all the brothers were there,along with a bottle of whisky and they literally played all night!

Duane Allman and James dean were both barely known during their lifetimes and within a year after their deaths a huge following grew around each of them. They both had reddish blonde hair, were both 24 when they died, they both had their accidents at 5:45 PM, they both died on the last Friday of the month and they were both killed by an oncoming vehicle making a left turn in front of them. Now you know, so send me money and lots of it.
and then, there's a lead up to a moment by one of the drummers, and Duane slips thru an harmonic. It's simply, enlightened. Yeah, Clapton. Uh-huh, S.Ray Vaughn; why, even Les Paul, 60 years ago. But they're all the trailors...Duane Allman, forever, the feature.
Me again. but, i've worn out several lp's, several cassettes and now, several cd's listening to this: drunk, high, sober, straight. there's nothing to compare. when duane launches off into his own... is that called a riff?... it's a piece, a masterpiece, unto itself. don't tell me Clapton; don't tell me "Slash". this is a category unto itself. as well, gregg... not technical, but swell. dicky's awesome, too. but duane. god, the genius here. on that fateful day...the music died.
Just my opinion... but I don't think there was ever a moment like this in rock-dom; I don't think there'll ever be anything like it again. Duane Allman and Berry Oakley... deceased genius. There's only one place on the entire track, where I think Duane missed it. It is at the end of MJ where the band breaks back into the original theme. It sounds as though Dickey had to prompt Duane with the first note. I certainly could be wrong...
I used to LOVE playing this song on the jukebox at my old neighborhood bar that had a real cheap owner who never bought his regulars drinks. Playing this one 3 times would cost him about $15 in juke box profits...Don't get mad, get even...
@Stormride008 Hey man sorry about your uncle, it touched me to read your comment...I'm one of the biggest Allman heads around and if I had died I sure would want one of my nephews to do the same..sorry.
@Skyman46 hey thanks man. allmans were my uncle mikes favorite. we had eat a peach playing for him during his last moments - he was holding on for a while but i think with the allmans playing and having his whole family with him he felt he could go in peace, and when he passed we could all feel his spirit enter us. uncle mike was a great man and every time i listen to the allmans i can feel him with me.
i red where bill graham said after the fillmore concert the doors were opened and the people were still there in amazement of what they has just witnessed. said the allman came in, sit down with a few bottles of whiskey and played unti it was all gone. fantastic music
it was released on eat a peach but notice they go into mountain jam after maybe whipping post. if not mistaken, they recorded part of eat a peach at the fillmore and finished it in studio. they peaked on this album. fantastic, gregs vocals, the tightness of the drummers and the band. and the bass following the guitars...dont get no better.
the greatest recorded epic rock performance bar none. Much thanks to A. Frost for uploading the entire 33 plus minutes. the tightness and creativity of any group at the time, and those 6 musicians are playing at the level of artistry, together, that seems unbelievable. I'd have to find a jugalbandi by Hariji and Shivji with Ustad Zakir or the John Coltrane Quartet in1963-64 to find anything approaching the improvisational genius here. Rest in peace Mr. D. Allman and Mr. Oakley. Still the best.
I saw Led Zepplin in concert and they couldn't hold a lighter to the great Allman Bros.
