Allman Brothers Band release a strong live set First Set
Dave Morris notes the Allman Brothers Band return to form with An Evening With The Allman Brothers Band First Set.

Thom Doucette returns on harmonica and the acoustic mid set includes Midnight Blues and Melissa. Dowd’s production earns praise alongside a revived anti war Revival closer.
