....okay I will be the first on this thread. I agree with two out of three of your choices....and I was very disappointed on one of these pieces, one in which I waited years for ! I even did the research to try and understand the '' back - drop '' of the music / area in which it was created.....Low Country Blues to me was a big disappointment. I am an Allman Brother's fan since the early seventies and have closely followed Gregg's career. But, I just can't get into this one...the other two are great ...but this one no way. I personally attribute it to T Bone Burnett's obvious '' stamp '' on this music - as he just takes any life out of the music and is mixed way too dark and muddled for me to even enjoy. T Bone Burnnet has a done a terrfic job with Robert Plant and Allison Krauss, John Mellencamp and Ryan Bingham's stuff......not on this one. Maybe if someone else had produced it would have been better ....I have seen The Gregg Allamn band twice in the last year and a half....and his live music in no way sounds like the stuff on this new disc....whooaa I feel better. But, yes, there is still some great stuff here to enjoy by these elder statesmen.
Allman, Clapton, and Simon
Well, ever since my mid-1970's high school days, I've always been a big fan of Greg Allman, Eric Clapton, and Paul Simon. So, naturally, now that I'm a 55 yr. old music lover, who's still a big fan of these three great musicians, I recently bought each of their new albums (errr... excuse me, ... CD's) All I can say is WOW !!! These three guys are still writing great songs and still singing sweet music. Bravo, and thanks for still doing your thing, boys. You're all to be commended. You're still proving to be the cream of the crop.
