Editorial Review: Album Details: Not the Remastered Version. Amazon.com: Having firmly established themselves as "The Grateful Dead of the South" via their enormously successful 1971 Live at the Fillmore East double album, the Allman Brothers had just begun work on a new studio collection when slide guitarist Duane Allman died in a motorcycle accident. Undaunted, the group rallied together and completed Eat a Peach, which, via inclusion of the 34-minute-plus "Mountain Jam," blossomed into a double LP. While keyboardist-singer Gregg Allman shone on tracks like Sonny Boy Williamson's "One Way Out" and his own "Melissa," it was second guitarist Dickey Betts who came out from under the departed Allman's shadow with his lead vocal on "Blue Sky" and his incendiary playing throughout. --Billy Altman Customer Reviews

 Rating: - Allman Brothers, Eat a PeachI had bought this as a vinyl album many many years ago. I had completely forgotten how good it was. Truly timeless material. Rating: - Excellent!This is what real music sounds like. There hasn't been much of it in a long time, so we are lucky the old stuff was so good. Rating: - Hats off to the Allmans!This would have to be their best album ever I bought it when it first came out, even now when we talk about some of the best music we have heard this album is always mentioned. Rating: - incredibleThere's a lot of people who like to dismiss southern rock without even giving it a chance. It's really amazing how close-minded people can be. If they ever heard the Allman Brothers Band (particularly the classic period) they'd grow to appreciate southern rocks best moments. This is a brilliant band. It's not often I use the word "brilliant" because it's a word that only deserves to be used when it's entirely appropriate. In this case, I feel completely comfortable using it. I was surprised while listening to Eat a Peach how many songs I had already recognized. "Ain't Wasting Time No More" is a perfect blend of rock and blues. In fact, that's one of the greatest things about this band. They are really good at ... Read More: Rating: - THE ORIGINAL ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND. THEIR SWAN SONG.When Duane Allman was killed in a motorcycle accident, The Allman Brothers Band decided that he would have wanted them to soldier on. And that, they did. Eat a Peach (1972) was released about four months after Duane's death. It contains songs recorded in the studio with Duane, unreleased live performances with Duane from the historic Fillmore concerts, and new songs recorded without Duane. Every song is a classic and fan favorite. The new songs kick off the album with the upbeat Ain't Wastin' Time No More ("I've still got two strong legs and even wings to fly"), the impressive instrumental Les Brers in A Minor' and the beautifully sad Melissa (this new beginning would end eight months later with bassist Berry Oakley's death).
