thanks to my friends   Review by Bruce Eder Ninety-one minutes of the Allman Brothers Band in concert from a Cincinnati venue that they loved, nearly a year before their legendary Fillmore shows. The acoustics are good, though a little shaky — the tape was made at 7 ½ ips, the bare minimum professional standard, which leaves more hiss than one might like, and a bit less clarity than a fully professional live album might show; on the other hand, the group's sound imparts its own punch and clarity, and it was done in stereo, and if not for the existence of the Fillmore tapes, and the fact that the albums they yielded sold a kajillion copies, this show might well have been released in the 1970s. It isn't as intense as the Fillmore shows, but it does capture the group as a little known working band with but a single album out and building a reputation — and with Dickey Betts yet to emerge as either a singer or composer, and their sound still being worked out ("Statesboro Blues" gets a startlingly subdued performance, anticipating the acoustic version of "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" from the the '90s recording' 2nd Set). They build their set on ambitious reinterpretations of songs by Blind Willie McTell, Muddy Waters ("Trouble In Mind"), John Lee Hooker ("Dimples"), and Willie Dixon, whose "Hoochie Coochie Man" is a soaring highlight of this two-disc set, in a version that makes every other white band's cover seem wimpy by comparison, climaxing with a searing, though somewhat disjointed 44-minute version of "Mountain Jam." cd1 1 Dreams Allman 10:15 2 Statesboro Blues McTell 8:09 3 Trouble No More Waters 4:13 4 Dimples Bracken, Hooker 5:00 5 Every Hungry Woman Allman 4:28 6 I'm Gonna Move to the Outskirts of Town Razaf, Weldon 9:22 7 (I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man Dixon 5:23 cd2 1 Mountain Jam [Theme from First There Is a Mountain] Allman, Betts, Donovan ... 44:00 |
