Boston Commons 8-17-71

Live archive release from the Southern Rock icons. This 1971 set features the band's original (and best) lineup, Duane, Gregg, Dickey, Butch, Jaimoe and Berry. 1971 was a watershed year for The Allman Brothers Band they recorded their seminal live album, AT FILLMORE EAST, in March, and continued to tour relentlessly. By this point, their performances had reached a level of musicianship and intensity that other groups could only dream of. AT FILLMORE EAST was released in July to massive critical acclaim, and a month later, they rolled back into Boston to once again jam in the Common, playing two shows on August 17th.
