Allman Brothers Band - Blue Sky Live Performance at Great Woods

Venue: Great Woods Center for the Performing Arts Location: Mansfield, Massachusetts, United States Date: September 6, 1991

Let’s take a trip back to September 6, 1991, when the Allman Brothers Band graced the stage at Great Woods. At this point in their career, they were riding a wave of resurgence, having reunited in the late '80s after a decade-long hiatus. Just before this live recording, they had released *Shades of Two Worlds* in 1990, an album that highlighted their evolving sound while staying true to their Southern rock roots. This particular album showcased their signature mix of blues, jazz, and rock—a blend that they perfected over the years. Interestingly, *Blue Sky*, the track featured in this live performance, is a classic penned by the legendary Dickey Betts. It’s a testament to the band’s knack for crafting songs that resonate with both heart and soul—perfect for a live setting where the energy is palpable. This was also a period when the band was re-establishing their connection with fans, doing what they do best: pouring every ounce of passion into their performances. The Great Woods concert truly captures that spirit!
