The Allman Brothers Band

On January 16, 1982, The Allman Brothers Band performed "Ramblin' Man" at the University of Florida Bandshell, a time in their career marked by a resurgence in popularity following their reformation in 1979 after a hiatus. Prior to this live recording, the band had released the album "Enlightened Rogues" in 1979, which featured their continued blend of Southern rock and blues, and helped re-establish their presence in the music scene. By the time of this 1982 performance, they were actively touring and engaging with a devoted fanbase, fueled in part by the success of songs like "Ramblin' Man," which had earlier reached No. 2 on the Billboard charts. This live recording showcases the band’s enduring musicianship and their ability to connect with audiences, even as they navigated various lineup changes and the evolving music landscape.
