Movie Reviews of The Allman Brothers Band - Live at the Beacon Theatre
Movie Review: Absolutely Incredible!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Derek Trucks addition to the band turned out to be an incredible success. I have always liked Dickie Betts and was not happy with him being removed from the band, but after seeing Derek Trucks play, I was blown away. Some other reviewers feel differently and liked Betts better, but for me, Trucks was awesome!!! I'm not knocking Betts, but just saying how incredible Trucks was. He fit right in next to Warren Hayes and the exchanges of riffs between the two are the best I've ever seen between two guitarists. Even Allman himself seemed refreshed and alive. I thouroughly enjoyed his vocals. He is one of the masters. Instumental Illness was a mind blowing song. These guys can still play with the best of them. This is a must have DVD for any Blues fan.
Summary of The Allman Brothers Band - Live at the Beacon Theatre
The Allman Brothers' strong, occasionally startling set on this DVD may soften those intransigent purists who won't accept the band without its original (and now fired) guitarist, Dickey Betts. The group's classic dual-guitar sound is capably covered by returning member Warren Haynes and rising star Derek Trucks (young nephew of Allmans' drummer Butch Trucks), who sounds as if he's lived and breathed the late Duane Allman's playbook since he left the cradle. Derek's barbed riffs feed the textured funk of "Statesboro Blues" and get some mileage out of filler like "Come and Go Blues," but the blissful-looking fellow's supreme moment comes when he joins Haynes in a blisteringly beautiful attack on gospel stunner "Soul Shine." Some of the material here borders on the pedestrian, but vocalist-keyboardist Gregg Allman's grizzled mastery of the blues can still lead this legendary band through some epic mysteries. --Tom KeoghMusic Video & Concerts DVD Video
