If You've Been Disappointed.., July 3, 2006
Reviewer: S. Allen (McKinney Texas)
...in the muddy and muffled sound of ALL previous reissues and remasters of Eat a Peach, including the MFSL release, you're in luck. This edition finally fixes those issues, and I must say that it truly sounds beautiful. They either found a much better tape or they did a sonic restoration job on it, because there's no comparison to anything that has come before it. If you like (or love) this album, you won't regret buying this. To top it all off, it includes the entire June 27, 1971 Fillmore East concert, and it sounds great too, even though the mixing is a little questionable.

It's nice when you come across the rare reissues that actually have unreleased material included. This version of Eat A Peach is a gem--70 previously unheard minutes of Fillmore concerts--need I say more? Sure, there are a few performance clinkers here and there (after all, these were rejected in favor of what appears on the classic Fillmore album), but the most remarkable aspect of these performances is noticing how improvised these songs really were--most of the soloing consists of different licks than heard on the original. And the sound is superb--as good or better than the double Fillmore Concerts CD package. Another winner from the vaults of the ABB!!
Dedicated To A Brother....Duane Allman, June 10, 2006

Let's set the record straight. When it comes to The Allman Brothers Band, especially the classic Duane Allman / Berry Oakley era Allman Brothers, I can't be objective. Yes, I'll admit, I'm a dyed-in-the-wool, certified fanatic. Havimg seen the orginal line up a total of five times....make that five, breath-taking, awe-insipiring, super fantasmaglogia times, I'm clearly not an unbiased source. I saw the ABB on one of their first tours in the winter of 1970 at the Capital Theatre in Portchester, NY. No they weren't the headliners. In fact they played third on the bill to Johnny Winter and headliners Delaney & Bonnie and Friends. Then I saw them three times at the Filmore East and once at the Manhattan Center on 34th St and Eighth Ave, NYC.
The best of those five shows was the last "public" concert at the Filmore East. The very last night was a show Bill Graham put on for a celebrity, invited-only audience. I was at the "last public" show and I'll never forget the intesity of that unforgettable performance. The previously unreleased material on disc two of this new Deluxe Edition of EAP was from that last Filmore show I attended. Cue this puppy up to disc two and hang on to your hat, cause you're in for a ride.
Listen to Duane soaring off into the stratsosphere on Statesboro Blues, Don't Keep Me Wondering, One Way Out and You Don't Love Me. Hear Berry's oh so thick, so heavy and inspired bass lines. Gregg is in great voice, (never sounding better for my money) and Butch and Jai Johnny are as steady and precise as a Swiss chronograph. Believe me, it just dosn't get any better than this. The remastering job they did on these thirty five year old tapes is truly magnificent. The unreleased material, as I mentioned earlier is a treasure. The graphics, the packaging, the beautiful vintage photos and the liner notes by Scott Schnider all combine to make this new EAP absolutely indespensible. You can't call yourself an Allman Brothers fan if you don't rush out and purchase this. It sure brought me back to that hot sweaty June night on New York's lower east side where they obliged the crowd's cheer of "Play-All-Night!!!!"
