How the Allman Brothers Band Helped Make Jimmy Carter President 🎸

The Georgia-based group provided crucial early support for his 1976 White House run, creating a bond that lasted for decades

The governor greeted Allman, “Come on in. I got some new Elmore James albums we can listen to.” As they walked inside, Mr. Carter praised Allman’s songwriting and started “rattling off the lyrics” to his songs.

The Allman Brothers Band, Eat a Peach, 1972 on Capricorn

Third studio album from the Allman Brothers Band, with a mixture of live and studio recordings, including some from the Fillmore East performances in 1971. Released after Duane Allman died in a motorcycle crash in Macon Georgia. The extended “Mountain Jam” is spread across two sides, B and D.

The song “One Way Out” is actually by Elmore James and Sonny Boy Williamson – I didn’t even know that was its actual title (“‘Cause there’s a man down there, might be your man I don’t know.”).

Famous cover by W. David Powell and J.F. Holmes from Wonder Graphics out of Georgia – with no album title appearing on the cover (apparently it was still being decided upon when the graphics were finalized).

My copy via Vinyl Destination (RIP) in Lowell, MA.

Will have to read if just for the Allman Brothers' interview and Rolling Stone piece. Seems like a good, alternate "Almost Famous" source material.

'Splendor in the Short Grass': Romancing the Stoned

"[T]he best of the New Journalism is still bracing -- for its flair but also for its earnest presumption and for its access to what people, high and low, were actually up to."

The Allman Brothers Band - The Road Goes on Forever (Capricorn, 1975)

Thanks to my parents-in-law for passing down 2 boxes of moldy records that I cleaned up and culled, keeping the cream of the crop, mostly classic rock and folk. ABB were a formative influence and are well represented in my digital collection, but this is my only record, a well-curated "greatest recordings" compilation.

Nice little set at the Lincoln in Raleigh last night. Was a tribute to #DickeyBetts. We did a short set of “unplugged” stuff—Little Martha, Pony Boy, and Sweet Melissa.

Minor disaster during Pony Boy. In the middle of the tune we hear this massive flanged jet engine sound roaring through the house and monitors. We all look at each other. Apparently the singer had accidentally bumped some sort of effect button. Took him about 20 seconds to figure out how to turn it off.

Have this #AllmanBrothers tribute gig coming up in #Raleigh at the Lincoln on Saturday so I sat down with my #dobro last night to make sure the internal Fishman still worked. Of course, it didn’t. So, a little heavy duty double sided tape and an old Lawrence and I’m back in business. Sounds pretty great, too!

Cherry sunburst dobro guitar with silver “pie plate” and black pickup mounted just above the plate.

The #AllmanBrothers recently released this 4/7/72 show recorded only months after Duane's death. So it's unique in that Dicky Betts is the sole guitarist. But it sounds great and I've never heard Berry Oakley's bass so high in the mix. You can really focus in on his playing and what made him so great.
