Too bad there aren’t more February and April 1971 live shows available to the masses to be heard.

I attended this show and it was my first ABB concert. As the note above says, Little Richard did, in fact, disrupt the show. He and his entourage took over the stage right in the middle of the Allman Brothers set. The Bros. did not look too happy and after a few minutes of confusion and booing, etc. the Allmans walked off the stage in disgust. Little Richard was screaming something about not getting paid enough….since that was the one and only time I ever saw Duane, it has bothered me my whole life. But, hay, I DID see him, thank God !
