The Allman Brothers Band’s final concert is being released as a live album

The Allman Brothers Band’s final concert will be released as a live album later this month.

The pioneering rock band played their final concert on October 28, 2014 at Beacon Theatre in New York City. The show featured a lineup of founding members Gregg Allman, Jaimoe, and Butch Trucks alongside Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks, Marc Quinones, and Oteil Burbridge, and saw them play a career-spanning 29-song setlist.

Now, in celebration of the show’s 10th anniversary, a recording is being released as a live album. ‘Final Concert 10-28-14’ will be available digitally on October 25 and as a CD box set on November 22, and you can pre-order here.

The ‘Final Concert 10-28-14’ CD will feature remastered audio of the show, as well as a 16-page booklet with exclusive photos and liner notes.

“Having joined the Allman Brothers Band in 1991, I had no idea what I was getting myself into as a percussionist joining two drummers on stage,” Quinones said in a statement about the concert. “Fast forward 23 years to the last show we played as the Allman Brothers Band. I feel honored to have been part of such a historical musical force that was and is the ABB. Love live the ABB!”

Since the concert, several members of the Allman Brothers Band have died. Dickey Betts, the band’s original guitarist passed away in April this year at the age of 80, while Allman died in 2017 aged 69.

Allman formed the band alongside his brother Duane in 1969, and released their debut, self-titled album the same year. They soon amassed acclaim for hits such as ‘Ramblin’ Man’, ‘Midnight Rider’ and ‘Jessica’, which gained a new audience in later years as the theme for Top Gear.

Known for their extended jam band improvisations, and combining country and blues influences into their classic rock aesthetic, they received commercial and critical success with albums such as the 1971 live album ‘At Fillmore East’ and 1972’s ‘Eat a Peach’, the latter of which was dedicated to the memory of Duane, who had recently been killed in a motorcycle accident.

The band continued to play sporadically up until 2014, and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.
