Customer Reviews:

Nice (if short) collection of Epic material.......2004-03-16

Epic Records, that is. This material is really good, culled from the Allman Brothers Band's 90s recordings for the Epic label, but they're not quite epic, although songs like "Back Where It All Begins" and "Good Clean Fun" come close to recapturing the glory of the band's early days.

These ten songs are taken from "Seven Turns", "Shades Of Two Worlds", and "Where It All Begins", adding an acoustic performance from the live "An Evening With The Allman Brothers Band", and while several good songs are obviously missing, the oddly titled "Mycology" is a pretty good way for curious listeners to get accquainted with this often underrated period in
the Allmans' career.

Or you could just get the original albums...I mean, there are only three. And a live one.
What do the Allman Brothers Band have to do with fungi, anyway? Is it something with mescalin?

A good collection, despite record co. mistakes.......2002-07-15

The 1989-97 version of the Allman Brothers Band, which included guitarist/vocalist Warren Haynes and bassist Allan Woody, came as close as is humanly possible to recreating this group's original, glorious, creative beginnings. Haynes was (and still is) a peerless player, equally capable on standard or slide, and the late, great Woody brought a solid, inventive style that reminded us all of original bassist Berry Oakley. This lineup produced three studio albums - Seven Turns, Shades of Two Worlds and Where It All Begins - that continue to stand up as artistic, creative and energetic. I'd put them up against anything the group ever recorded. So what about this collection? Well, it's a bit of a head-scratcher. Most importantly, the band's label at that time simply screwed up when it assembled the CD, putting in studio versions of the songs that are advertized as live in concert . This means casual collectors are denied the chance to hear the full, glorious 15-minute take on Nobody Knows. Secondly, most fans know an ABB album isn't complete without an instrumental, and Mycology cruelly leaves off Kind Of Bird, surely the most jaw-dropping, bee-bop-influenced composition this group will ever produce. Still, an Allman Brothers Band is like sex; even when it's bad, it's still pretty good.

got to give it credit.......2000-06-01

this album is good but no matter what you say the allman bros is duane he kept rhe band at its best i do like the last song on this and all of them are really good songs. especially every hungry women the live version. i do like the newer stuff on there as well but instead of buying this i recomend where it all begins.

Excellent "Hits" package of 1990-1995 ABB Material.......1999-06-23

While most of the music on the CD got a good bit of radio air-play when these songs were new, EPIC records never really got behind this excellent version of the Allman Brothers. Some critics have felt like they surpassed even the acclaimed original version of the band, with the legendary Duane Allman. Even if you don't feel that way after a spin or two from this CD, you will happy you bought it. Seven Turns, End of the Line, No One to Run With (probably the biggest radio "hit" on this disc), and Good Clean Fun all represent the ABB at their very best--powerful blues/gospel vocals laid on top of twin-guitar rock n blues. The acoustic reading of Midnight Rider will give you a good idea of how much this version of the ABB added to the older classics. An old live nugget, Every Hungry Woman, is even thrown in as a bonus.
