Let's see...i'm sure one of the Sweeties must have posted already about the good ole time we had in NYC last night at the Dominic Chianese Rock and Wrap bennie...(i know sari posted some pics already)....but i'm wondering if they mentioned that we actually had an appearance by none other than the "Whipping Post" Guy!!!
funniest thing, Uncle Junior just got done singing some beautiful Italian Love Song....and some drunken fella from the table next to us yells "WHIPPING POST!!!!" :laugh:
i all but fell over laughing. too funny! Naturally, we struck up a convo with this fella and he thought that it was a private joke between him and his friend over the Fillmore album....little did he know it's not so private!! :laugh:
the highlight of the evening was my wining a case of wine (Chilean Sauvignon Blanc, quite a step up from my usual Blue Nun)...and TerriB winning the Worlds Heaviest Gift Basket. It was an adventure carting all that loot back to NJ, but somehow we managed! 🙂 plus, drinking several bottles of the wine on the way home helped ease the load.
yet another successful event! 🙂

Howdy. Just got Atlanta Pop and it sounds great. Just for the heck of it, while I was listening to it I put together a little list of all the Allmans live recordings. This is just the official stuff, not taper stuff or even the instant CD (by the way, I just ordered Charlotte cuz I gotta have Layla and I was disappointed it wasnt on the Beacon DVD).
Anyhow, by my calculations (which are quite possibly wrong), the boys have put out 11 live albums that include 48 different songs. And to prove that I have way too much time on my hands, I am gonna list them.
The albums/cds are in chronological order (not order of release): Fillmore East, Feb. 70; Ludlow Garage; Atlanta Pop Festival; American University; At Fillmore East (including the Eat a Peach stuff that ended up on the Fillmore Concerts and the new Fillmore East re-release); SUNY; Dollar Gas; IRSA acoustic; Evening with; 2nd Set; Peakin at the Beacon.
Now for the songs, and this list is by how many times a tune appears. Leading the way with seven appearances are Statesboro Blues and Liz Reed.
Six: Trouble No More.
Five: Mountain Jam; Whipping Post.
Four: You Dont Love Me; Dreams; Dont Keep Me Wonderin; Stormy Monday.
Three: Southbound; Hoochie Coochie Man; Every Hungry Woman.
Two: Leave My Blues at Home; Outskirts of Town; Aint Wastin Time No More; Dont Want You No More/Not my Cross to Bear; Midnight Rider; Jessica; Seven Turns; Melissa; Midnight Blues; Done Somebody Wrong; One Way Out; Blue Sky.
Finally, the one-hit wonders: Dimples; Hot Lanta; Drunken-hearted Boy; Revival; Wasted Words; Ramblin Man; Come and Go Blues; Cant Lose What You Never Had; Come On in My Kitchen; Goin Down the Road; End of the Line; Get On With My Life; Nobody Knows; Sailin Cross the Devils Sea; Soulshine; Back Where it All Begins; The Same Thing; No One to Run With; Please Call Home; Stand Back; Black-Hearted Woman; Leave My Blues at Home; High Falls.
Thanks for indulging me.
Thanx Pam
Fred, the "Price Hall show" is one of the best from 72....great sound and performance.
Evansf- here's a few '72 shows that are pretty good:
3/23
4/7
4/16
7/12
12/31
You might want to check out the trades forum with this as well.
Hey folks, I'm trying to get an idea what the best 10 1972 ABB shows are in terms of performance and sound quality. I have a few myself and most of them are pretty flat - both sound and performance. Can I get comments from you folks?
Hey Vince : I lost your phone number.That was me leaving the Beacon during the credits. It was a real shock for me and the family as we were watching the DVD together like any good old american family should. Give me a call.
Well Pete, I hope I wasn't out of line by posting that...
Peace,...Neil
Neil,Derek Trucks Band is also playing that nite in CT.(Mohegan Sun Casino)thats why I did'nt post the Johnny Winter show with PSB on the ABB Site.
But I am excited to open for Johnny!
PS
The Southbound at Red Rocks is incredible, the trumpet and Guitar and keyboard players from Karl Dennisons band. Incredible ! The trumpet player is awsome.
Hey Folks,...For anyone interested, Pete Scheips is opening for Johnny Winter at the Webster Theater on Friday, November 21st. Hope you don't mind me saying that Pete, but why would you. I'd be excited as h*ll.
Peace,...Neil
Yeah Pam, my math isn't so good. Sometimes I wonder how I ever got a job in corporate finance. :-p :-p :-p
For those interested, the Gov't Mule show Saturday night at the Vic in Chicago is now sold out. There are still tickets available for Friday's show.

One more note: The above note was not a shamless attempt at self promotion.;)

Catching up on reading the posts since I was so engrossed listening to ARU's "The Calling". Now, what was everybody saying? :winky:
Well that was easy Pam. Ya gotta love technology; that was the fastest $18 I ever spent (except for a round of drinks at the Beacon ;)).
Okay, I'll play the ARU game too!:)
Did you all know that you can get to the ARU site from just a click? You didn't!? Well ^up^ there where it says "other HTW sites" if you just put the pointer from the mouse on it it opens the menu with out clicking! then you click on Aquarium Rescue Unit! Instructions on how to get the new CD are right on the home page too!:bounce:
