Evening friends!! Saw this info come across on the ListServ and thought it was worth passing along. The links below offer release date, pre-order info, sound bites, and a free poster offer for the upcoming Atlanta Pop set. Have a look, putting my order in tomorrow. Man, it's a great time to be a ABB nut!! http://www.epicrecords.com/artistoftheweek/allmanbros.html http://www.allmanbrothersbootlegs.com/ Here's the track list and summmary of the release: Disc One: Introduction Statesboro Blues Trouble No More Don't Keep Me Wonderin' Dreams Every Hungry Woman* Hoochie Coochie Man In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed Whipping Post Mountain Jam Pt.I Rain Delay Mountain Jam Pt.II Disc Two: Introduction Don't Keep Me Wonderin' Statesboro Blues* In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed Stormy Monday Whipping Post* Mountain Jam All tracks previously unreleased except where noted (*) Overview In the heat of the summer of 1970, more than a half-million of Hippie Nation's faithful made their way down Interstate 75 to the second annual Atlanta International Pop Festival, a July 4th weekend gathering of the tribes that began (on Friday night) and ended (in the dawning hours of Monday morning) with glorious three-hour headlining performances from a group destined to leave its imprint on rock and blues for decades to come, The Allman Brothers Band. Briefly excerpted (two songs, worth) by Columbia Records the following year, the multi-track live tapes of those two sets finally surrender the bulk of their treasures all these years later on THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND - LIVE AT THE ATLANTA INTERNATIONAL POP FESTIVAL - among the earliest full-length live recordings of them now officially available, and the longest from 1970. Clocking in with over 150 minutes of music on two CDs - one disc for each night - and a revealing behind-the-scenes liner notes essay by ABB Tour Magician Kirk West, the live album will arrive in stores October 21st on Epic/Legacy, a division of Sony Music. But you can order your copy from this website & get yours early! Order now & it will be shipped to you on September 30th! This new live album is a (mostly) previously unreleased testament to the classic, original lineup of the band who single-handedly launched the Southern Rock explosion that still thrives today: Gregg Allman on keyboards and vocals, guitarists Duane Allman and Dickey Betts, Berry Oakley on bass, and the dual drumming of Butch Trucks and Jaimoe (Jai Johanny Johanson). They had released their self-titled debut album the year before in 1969, on the new Capricorn Records label headquartered in Macon, Georgia (and distributed at the time by Atlantic Records).
