Artist: Allman Brothers Band

We've reached the home stretch of the Allman Brothers Band's March Madness run at the Beacon. Just as they did last night, The Juke Horns came out and added brass to parts of both sets. Particle keyboardist Steve Molitz has been making the rounds lately as he followed up his guest spot at one of Furthur's Best Buy Theater shows earlier this month by coming out for the last two songs of tonight's first set - The Weight and One Way Out. Joining Molitz on the set closers was Black Crowes guitarist Rich Robinson. [...]

One element that has been missing from the Allman Brothers Band March Madness run at the Beacon were horns. The Juke Horns are a Beacon run staple and finally made their presence felt last night in a big way. [ Allman Brothers Band on Moogis ] The first set of last night's show offered a wide variety of original material leading up to a cover of Elmore James' blues classic The Sky Is Crying. One of the night's more interesting moments came towards the [...]

While the story from most of the previous Allman Brothers Band March Madness performances at the Beacon Theatre in New York City focused around guests, last night's concert was all about the band itself and how good they are playing right now. That's not to say there weren't special guests as Tommy Talton and Scott Boyer of severely underrated southern rock act Cowboy joined the Brothers during set two.

You know it's a good sign when the Allman Brothers Band invites a guest who sat in with them in the first set back at some point during the second. Tonight at the Beacon, where the band's annual March Madness is in full swing, guitarist John Scofield made his first appearance with the Allmans memorable thanks to incendiary soloing in both sets.

Who needs the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame when you've got the Allman Brothers Band's March Madness run at the Beacon? By the time tonight's show was over, a member of Aerosmith, The Original Meters, the Red Hot Chili Peppers AND Steely Dan had all joined the band at one point setting up one of the best performances of the run. [Allman Brothers Band on Moogis.com ] The first set started innocently enough with a string of old favorites before the Allmans [...]

Considering it was just a Tuesday night and the hype for the evening was centered on Phil Lesh's 71st Birthday Show down Broadway at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square, you wouldn't have been shocked if the Allman Brothers Band turned in a snoozer at the Beacon. Yet the Allmans always have a way of rising to the occasion during the March Madness run and tonight's guest and jam-laden affair was a keeper. [ Moogis.com ] The opening set started off with a [...]

Two New York City institutions came together again tonight when former New York Yankee outfielder Bernie Williams sat in with the Allman Brothers Band at the Beacon Theatre. Tonight's performance, part of the band's annual March Madness run, was the first concert broadcast live in the 40 year history of the MSG Network. [Allman Brothers Band on Moogis.com ] Bernie first guested with the Allmans at a Beacon show on April 7, 2007 when he sat in on Who's Been Talkin'. Williams [...]

When the Allman Brothers Band announced the dates of this year's March Madness run, we marked March 12 on our calendars. Forty years ago tonight, the ABB played the first of two shows recorded for the seminal At Fillmore East double-LP which has made nearly every Best Live Albums list ever written. To celebrate the occasion, the group performed every track from the original release of At Fillmore East as the first set at the Beacon Theatre as the first set for night three of the March Madness run along with "bonus tracks" Don't Keep Me Wonderin' [...]

Fun covers, guests galore and extended jams - you know what that means...The Allman Brothers Band March Madness run at the Beacon Theatre in NYC is in full effect. Show number two featured a nice mix of classic originals and new material while eschewing the material from the landmark At Fillmore East album that was recorded 40 years ago today that will most likely be performed in its entirety tonight.

The Allman Brothers Band kicked off their annual March Madness run last night at the Beacon Theatre in NYC with a guest-less show that featured a bust out, a new cover and a tip of the hat to a longtime member of the band's crew who recently passed away. The action started with a drum solo that led into a jam based off of Miles Davis' Spanish Key from the trumpet player's seminal Bitches Brew LP. Once the ensemble finished playing around with Spanish Key's main [...]

We can't help but feel like a little kid waking up on Christmas morning about to open their presents as tonight marks the start of the Allman Brothers Band's March Madness run at the Beacon Theatre in NYC. If you can't make it to the Beacon tonight, you can watch all the action unfold on Moogis.com . For today's video, we look back on one of the best moments of the ABB's near 200 shows at the venue - Eric Clapton dueling with Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes on Little Wing from March 19, 2009...

The Allman Brothers Band: Chapter 1.

While the merits of playing full album shows have their pros and cons, it seems as if the trend is still one that music fans are enthusiastic about. The latest band to throw its hat into the ring is stoner-rock act Queens Of The Stone Age , who have announced that in conjunction with the expanded reissue of its 1998 self-titled debut that the group will play it in its entirety when they head out on the road in May during a tour of Europe. The band, whose members have been concentrating on side-projects over [...]

While Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show's tongue and cheek ode actually helped to land the band on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, the legendary music rag doesn't give up that honor to just any act with a catchy tune. While the distinction is usually reserved for recognizable names, earlier this week Rolling Stone announced their Do You Wanna Be A Rock & Roll Star? talent search. The six month contest will pit 16 unsigned bands against each other for a chance to not only land on the cover of the August 18th issue, but [...]

While we don't usually fancy ourselves as a destination for financial news, we did think this was an important enough story to share: on Tuesday it was announced Citigroup has agreed to take over troubled music company EMI. The deal will decrease the label's debt by 65% from an astonishing $5.5 billion to roughly $1.9 billion. EMI, which is considered to be one of the "big four," was founded all the way back in 1931, and has been home to the likes of Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, The Band, Pink [...]

Tomorrow sees the release of Low Country Blues , the first new studio album from Allman Brothers Band front man Gregg Allman in 14 years. The 12-track blues covers record, produced by T. Bone Burnett, features Allman backed by Dr. John, Doyle Bramhall II on guitar and Burnett’s studio rhythm section of bassist Dennis Crouch and drummer Jay Bellerose. Last week Allman released this live video for the album's sole original track - Just Another Rider - which was co-written with his ABB band-mate Warren Haynes... [...]

Click to unfold Miss July 1957, Yvette Vickers (NSFW!) Have to admit, I have given a lot of thought recently on whether we should continue this series.  The original concept was to give a spin to old records that were not famous or well-remembered for one reason or another - mainly because they weren't as good as classics like Pet Sounds or Sgt. Pepper's .  But it was getting to be slightly depressing, because these mostly forgotten albums are still light years better and more listenable than much of today's musical offerings. [...]
