MINTY CLEAN 1969 ORIGINAL ~ FIRST LP
inc "WHIPPING POST" & "DREAMS"
THE ALLMAN BROTHERS
...USA - (yellow) ATCO RECORDS- SD 33 - 308
BEAUTIFUL...*best* copy found in ages....MINTY CLEAN 1969 first pressing in thick grainy gatefold cover of the very first ALLMAN BROTHERS album ...
The Allman Brothers debut album is one of their best albums. Considering much of what was happening in the music scene in 1969, this album is an enormous breath of fresh air. Some , call it southern rock, but that is just a surface tag name one can easily hear a new twist on hard blues music that is just fabulous. Two lead guitars, two drummers, one awesomely unique voice credit Gregg Allman, with a sound unlike any other group at the time. The Allman Brothers Band goes beyond just great musicianship, it also includes excellent songwriting, mostly at the hands of Gregg Allman. This albums most popular track, “Whipping Post,” is one of Gregg’s finest songwriting achievements. one they would extend with heated passion in their concerts.
Tracks one and two are essentially one large track as “Don’t Want You No More” leads right into the great, “It’s Not My Cross to Bear” -- a perfect example of how to incorporate both ends of the dynamic spectrum. The soft parts are accentuated by light guitars and passionate vocals. The middle part of the album is excellent, including three Allman Bros classics and highlighted by the timeless groove, “Dreams.” Pushing seven and a half minutes of embracing energy, filled with a great memorable melody and delicious Duane guitar solos. “Whipping Post” is the standout on this album. The opening theme is performed in nonstandard time; 11/4 with great lyrics, great vocals, organ work that is light but enhances the other instruments, and great transitions, Duane & Betts burn through trade off guitar solos that climax in heated frenzy.
Fans of classic rock and blues rock should enjoy this album.
