The Allman Brothers Band

The Allman Brothers Band was in a unique position in their career during the live recording at Great Woods on September 6, 1991. Just a few years prior, they had reunited in 1989 after a lengthy hiatus, bringing with them a renewed sense of purpose. Leading up to this live performance, their album "Seven Turns" was released in 1990, marking their first studio output with most of the original members since 1976. This period was rich with experimentation and a blend of their signature Southern rock sound with a more contemporary edge. Capturing the essence of their live energy, the performance of "Going Down the Road" highlights not just their musical prowess but also their ability to evolve while staying true to their roots. Interestingly, this was part of an era where they were seamlessly combining classic tracks with newer material, drawing both longtime fans and newer audiences in, making live shows an exhilarating experience.
