Allman Brothers Band – Live at Ludlow Garage (1970) (@320)
19 Nov 2007
(Review from allmusic.com)
Live at Ludlow Garage 1970 features 91 minutes of the Allman Brothers Band in concert at a Cincinnati venue that they loved, nearly a year before their legendary Fillmore shows.
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, not after digging the archives in 90s.
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.
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 (“Hoochie Coochie Man”), climaxing with a searing though somewhat disjointed 44-minute version of “Mountain Jam.”
Line-up:
* Gregg Allman – vocals, organ
* Duane Allman – electric guitar, slide guitar
* Dickey Betts – guitar
