 What a Waste! Great Opportunity Spurned! November 10, 2007
Frederick Baptist (Singapore)

Few bands have released live albums of such as high calibre as this one. When it comes to slide guitar mastery and virtuoso old style jamming, the Allman Brothers Band had on peer in their prime and this album is a showcase of what they were like at their prime. No weak tracks on this 7 track live album with "Statesboro Blues" and "Whipping Post" the stand outs."
This mlps version of the album though is a vast disappointment as the sound quality is very poor and is certainly not remastered. The old adage of judging the book by its cover certainly holds true here and therein lies the great waste. As far as mlps designs go, the packaging is first class as the gatefold design and workmanship plus the super quality cardboard used makes this one of the best mlps' that I've ever seen. An inner sleeve with all the lyrics in English and Japanese is included however, the most important part of the whole package, the cd sound quality, has been left unchanged making this version of the classic album a huge disappointment for the audiophile. Such a well done mlps design surely deserves a much better remastered sound quality to accompany it. The powers that be have let a great opportunity to produce a high-class reissue version of the album go by. Unless you are a great mlps design fan alone, I don't know why you would want to pay serious bucks for great-looking cardboard when there is no improvement sound-wise to the cd that you already own.
If you consider that Duane Allman together with Eric Clapton were probably the greatest blues guitarists of their time when Duane died (just hear their work together on Derek and the Dominoes' "Layla")the loss is truly great and one cannot but wonder at what might have been.
Alas, we'll never know but get this and "Brothers and Sisters" if you want to get the best of the Allman Brothers' work. If you are a guitarist and want to learn what great blues and slide work sounds like, get these two as well as the "Eat a Peach" albums as essential listening material.
Just don't get these mlps versions which sound exactly the same sound quality-wise as the versions you already have and hence waste a lot of money for good mlps design alone.
 DISAPPOINTING REMASTERS 2007 JAPANESE VERSION. September 30, 2007

I am a long time fan of this band, but I'm disappointed with quality of this Japanese 2007 Reissue. Other Universal titles as Lynyrd Skynyrd for example the sound is very superior than ABB 2007 reissue.
The Package is excellent, lyrics both English and Japanese, but the quality of sound could be better. 2 Stars.
