Editorial Reviews :
Very rarely is a legendary band able to come up with new, credible material. Jam band progenitors the Allman Brothers have done better than that, tapping into some of the spark that made them one of the most influential American bands of their time. The lineup has changed due to tragedy, discontent, and plain orneriness, but the band is still able to conjure up dark tales of thwarted romance, dashed ambitions, and enduring friendship and tether them to freefalling slide riffs, jazzy interludes, and soulful blues that have been staples of the band since 1969. Granted, some of the guitar solos aren't an heroic as they were when Dickey Betts in the fold, but the ballad 'Desdamona' is as inspired as 'Melissa,' and Gregg Allman's singing has never been better. --Jaan Uhelszki
Buyer Reviews :
I had a good feeling about this album, so I went out and bought it this morning before they even had time to put it on the shelf. I knew it wouldn't be a letdown, with the addition of Derek Trucks and the rejoining of Warren Haynes to the lineup. What a good feelin' when you're RIGHT !!! This album is filled with soulful, inspired singing and playing from Greg Allman, and stratospheric guitar playing from Haynes & Trucks. And oh yeah, the bass playing and drumming are top notch too. There's not even a mediocre song on the disc, but my favorite cuts are Desdemona, Maydell, Rockin' Horse, Instrumental Illness, and Old Friend. Hopefully this one will get the publicity and awards it so richly deserves.
