The Allman Brothers Band
The Allman Brothers Band - 'Will The Circle Be Unbroken' Live at Capitol Theatre
In April 1979, when The Allman Brothers Band took the stage at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, NJ, they were in the midst of a significant era in their career. Just a few months earlier, in 1978, they released the studio album "Enlightened Rogues," which showcased a distinct evolution in their sound. This marked a pivotal moment as the band was regrouping after the tragic loss of founding member Duane Allman in 1971 and the struggles that followed. By 1979, they were gaining momentum again, and this live recording reflects their dynamic blend of Southern rock and blues that captivated audiences. It’s also worth noting that "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" is a poignant nod to their deep musical roots and connections, resonating with themes of memory and legacy. This performance not only highlights their resilience but also stands as a testament to their ability to unite fans in powerful, shared experiences.
