One of my favorites. Saw them back in the early 90’s. Fantastic concert.

Fun song to play, too.

“Stand Back” is probably my favorite tune from Eat a Peach: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXEufDY6gQ4

Great band. I’m partial to “Jessica”, though.

Yep. Chuck Leavell's piano solo in that song just cooks.

Agree, a GREAT album and still played after all these years.
“Little Martha” a standout.

They say that every generation looks poorly upon the quality of the next, but in the case of the Allman Bros. Band and many, many others, they were superior as songwriters, musicians and performers to anything out there today and for the last 30 years. They got nuthin’.

Except Chris Stapleton. You should see his Tied to the Whipping Post vid.
