The Allman Brothers Band

On September 6, 1991, the Allman Brothers Band performed "Midnight Rider" live at Great Woods, a significant point in their career as they were experiencing a notable resurgence after a period of lineup changes and challenges. Prior to this performance, the band released the album "Seven Turns" in 1990, marking their reunion after a five-year hiatus. "Seven Turns" was well-received and helped re-establish their presence in the music scene, showcasing the group's commitment to their signature Southern rock sound. During this live recording, the band consisted of original member Gregg Allman along with a mix of both classic and newer members, highlighting their evolving sound while still maintaining the essence of what made them iconic. The performance captures their ability to fuse improvisation and structure, a hallmark of their live shows, keeping the spirit of their music alive even in the 1990s.
