Eat A Peach Remastered

Description

Product description CD Having firmly established themselves as “The
Grateful Dead of the South” via their enormously successful 1971 Live at the
Fillmore East double album, the Allman Brothers had just begun work on a new
studio collection when slide guitarist Duane Allman died in a motorcycle
accident. Undaunted, the group rallied together and completed Eat a Peach,
which, via inclusion of the 34-minute-plus “Mountain Jam,” blossomed into a
double LP. While keyboardist-singer Gregg Allman shone on tracks like Sonny
Boy Williamson’s “One Way Out” and his own “Melissa,” it was second guitarist
Dickey Betts who came out from under the departed Allman’s shadow with his
lead vocal on “Blue Sky” and his incendiary playing throughout. –Billy Altman
Review The sweetest fruit here-transformations of Sonny Boy Williamson’s “One
Way Out” and Muddy Waters’s “Trouble No More”-comes from that fraternal 1971
Fillmore show, which also yields one long yawn, the thirty-five-minute
“Mountain Jam.” The three selections recorded after Duane Allman’s death are
of little appeal to blues fans. — © Frank John Hadley 1993 — From Grove
