The Allman Brothers Band
was an American
rock
band formed in
Jacksonville, Florida
in 1969 by brothers
Duane Allman
(founder, slide guitar and lead guitar) and
Gregg Allman
(vocals, keyboards, songwriting), as well as
Dickey Betts
(lead guitar, vocals, songwriting),
Berry Oakley
(bass guitar),
Butch Trucks
(drums), and
Jai Johanny "Jaimoe" Johanson
(drums). The band incorporated elements of
blues
,
jazz
, and
country music
, and their live shows featured
jam band
-style
improvisation
and
instrumentals
. The group's first two studio releases,
The Allman Brothers Band
(1969) and
Idlewild South
(1970) (both released by Capricorn Records), stalled commercially, but their 1971 live release,
At Fillmore East
, represented an artistic and commercial breakthrough. The album features extended renderings of their songs "
In Memory of Elizabeth Reed
" and "
Whipping Post
", and is considered among the best
live albums
ever made. Group leader Duane Allman was killed in a motorcycle accident later that year – on October 29, 1971 – and the band dedicated
Eat a Peach
(1972) to his memory, a dual studio/live album that cemented the band's popularity and featured Gregg Allman's "
Melissa
" and
Dickey Betts
's "
Blue Sky
". Following the motorcycling death of bassist Berry Oakley exactly one year and 13 days later on November 11, 1972, the group recruited keyboardist
Chuck Leavell
and bassist
Lamar Williams
for 1973's
Brothers and Sisters
.
This album included Betts's
hit single
"
Ramblin' Man
" and instrumental "
Jessica
". These tunes went on to become
classic rock
radio staples, and placed the group at the forefront of 1970s rock music. Internal turmoil overtook them soon after; the group dissolved in 1976, reformed briefly at the end of the decade with additional personnel changes, and dissolved again in 1982. The band reformed once more in 1989, releasing a string of new albums and touring heavily. A series of personnel changes in the late 1990s was capped by the departure of Betts. The group found stability during the 2000s with bassist
Oteil Burbridge
and guitarists
Warren Haynes
and
Derek Trucks
(the nephew of their original drummer) and became renowned for their month-long string of shows at New York City's
Beacon Theatre
each spring. The band retired for good in October 2014 after their final show at the Beacon Theatre. Butch Trucks died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound on January 24, 2017, in
West Palm Beach, Florida
, at the age of 69. Gregg Allman died from complications arising from liver cancer on May 27, 2017, at his home in Savannah, Georgia, also at the age of 69. The band has been awarded seven gold and four platinum albums,
[3]
and was inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
in 1995.
Rolling Stone
ranked them 52nd on their
list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time
in 2004.
