Allman classics with unreleased concert as a bonus.

When eat a peach published in 1972, band founder and guitar prodigy Duane Allman was already dead, died in a motorcycle accident, not 25 years old. Shortly after publication, it caught then the bassist Berry Oakley, only three blocks away. No wonder, then, that eat a peach was a kind of transitional album, but one that is counted not by chance one of the highlights of Banddiskographie. One third of the consistently excellent songs were even recorded with Duane, one third came after his death to (including the hit "Melissa"), the rest is still of the legendary Fillmore Concerts of which already came At Fillmore East, still a of the best live albums in rock history. Of these performances is also the whole bonus CD, practically an entire and unpublished almost entirely concert (from 06.27.71, the last night at the Fillmore), which is undoubtedly the main attraction for all Allman fans. And be it not be disappointed, then the epic versions of "You Do not Love Me" (17+ minutes) and "Whipping Post" (20+) are nothing less than the on At Fillmore East and delight by small variations , The interplay of Duane Allman and Dickey Betts is almost telepathically (as well as that of the great rhythm section) and Gregg Allman seems to me even more expressive singing. Regarding brother Duane's slide guitar, it sounds still simply sensational. Eat A Peach has always been a tribute to the lost brother, but in this wonderful deluxe edition is clearer than ever what a exceptional guitarist Duane Allman and how tragic his early death was not only in human but also musically. All the better to get now a "new" concert, which again shows him at the peak of his abilities.
