The
Allman Brothers have a 34 year track record of providing soulful
Country driven Rock music filled with sizzling solos and funk
filled euphoric tunes. With the addition of Derek Trucks,
does the album have the same effect the band has had on it's
listeners from years past?
Hittin
The Note shows an evolution for the Allman Brothers Band.
The band sounds better than ever, and it's mostly from the
exceptional guitar work of Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes.
Trucks and Haynes fill the atmosphere with a more Blues oriented
style than the ABB have had before. The dueling guitars are
blazing with style and talent, always sounding in rhythm with
each other. Musicians of all styles can not deny how amazing
and smooth the guitar work is. The vocals of Gregg's have
become extremely crisp, and the overall new sound emanating
from the band is stunning. Fans of the band will find this
album to be the best of the bunch, ever better than Eat a
Peach . Even though Dicky Betts is out of the picture, in
no way has this hampered the ABB at all, and some may even
say the band is better off without him.
Musical
talent and rhythm like this can transcend the generation gap,
and present itself to a variety of audiences, young and old.
Long time supporters of the band will relive fond memories
of the past, and new fans interested in true music will be
made.
