On March 26, 1969 in Jacksonville, Florida, guitarist Duane Allman convened a jam session including bassist Berry Oakley, guitarist Dickey Betts, and drummers Jaimoe and Butch Trucks. It was the first musical meeting of the group which, with the addition of Gregg Allman on vocals and Hammond organ, would become The Allman Brothers Band-one of the most acclaimed and influential groups in the history of rock and roll. On March 26, 1999 at the Beacon Theater in New York, the Allman Brothers Band celebrated its 30th Anniversary with the penultimate performance of their sixth annual "March Madness" stand at the venerable theater-a total of 80 sold-out Beacon shows since 1993.

(Submit New The Allman Brothers Band Lyrics) (Submit New The Allman Brothers Band Lyrics) Review about The Allman Brothers Band Archetypal Epic Blues Masterwork! | Reviewer: Brent Funderburk ------ About the song Dreams performed by The Allman Brothers Band Classic archetypal human restlessness a la Joseph Campbell- hints that a woman is involved- and that "the race" seems unavoidable, but I think our hero is about to disembark. Gilgamesh, Luke Skywalker, Odysseus, Annie Dillard, Basho; whomever- we must each see from the mountaintop, and go find who we really are. Thanks, Greg- this is one of the most beautiful, contemplative, mythologically true blues songs ever written/performed. bahahaha | Reviewer: JezaXC ------ About the song Jessica performed by The Allman Brothers Band Dude there ARE not lyrics to Allman brother's Jessica. i would know i'm named after it because daddy din't want boys singin it to me. but there are other songs (such as the one by Jewel) that are called Jessica with lyrics... Crossroads | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Melissa performed by The Allman Brothers Band For me this song has evolved in meaning through my life, singing of the lonelyness faced at the crossroads all must choose a path often losing something precious, leaving only bittersweet memories that are lasting for all the years of one's life the song itself leaves it's mark on me and is truely one of my favorites of all time. Godspeed to the Band. Wow | Reviewer: Melissa banner ------ About the song Melissa performed by The Allman Brothers Band I thought I was special my dad chose my name because of this song ( a long time favorite of his) I didn't realize how many parents had done the same. This song really provided a lot of inspiration. It is an awesome song and always reminds me of my dad every-time I hear it. They ain't gonna be catchin' them no Original Nightrider | Reviewer: Original Nightrider ------ About the song Midnight Rider performed by The Allman Brothers Band This is a song I can relate to as a longtime biker who has kept on ridin' (literally and figuratively) even though knocked down by the world and left with nothing but two wheels on the road under me, running instead of hiding, and always finding one more silver dollar's worth of fuel (liquid and emotional) to keep me going. we be angels | Reviewer: mdtaichi ------ About the song I'm No Angel performed by The Allman Brothers Band We be angels - sent to Earth to learn again; we be hominids - dancing ourselves to oblivion; we be human - hoping to hear that song when we really need it! We need music to fill those truthfully hurt places in our hearts - for humanity & the angels. md// A Song To Remember | Reviewer: Donna ------ About the song I'm No Angel performed by The Allman Brothers Band I heard this song for the first time at a co-workers funeral this past week. He was a great guy that not many people took the time to really get to know. Under his gruff exterior was a genuinely nice and caring man who would do whatever it took to help someone. After listening to the words of this song, I know that he felt that this song depicted the story of his life. He was such a misunderstood man in life. I hope that he finds his peace in eternity. I will sorely miss him! In loving memory of Eugene Bates Nations Jr. 1957-2009. RIP my friend! sweet melissa | Reviewer: doubled ------ About the song Melissa performed by The Allman Brothers Band there are times when life gives you the imposable hand now is one of those times. Like the Gypsy says I have my own Melissa my first love from high school some 17 years back. she just moved home what a trip the flood of memories the song life is always a constant change thank you Allman Brothers thank you Melissa | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Melissa performed by The Allman Brothers Band Sitting in a small club and the band just played Melissa. Each time I hear the song I reflect back to high school and think about my sweet Melissa. I occasionally run into her when I'm home and always think about what might have been. She is still as beautiful now as the first time I saw her. I've moved on as most gypsy's do but still and always wish her the best. The Gypsy What a Love Song | Reviewer: szq ------ About the song Thorn And A Wlid Rose performed by The Allman Brothers Band This is a beautiful love song. A second chance, nothing left to lose and everything to gain. Let's make a garden strong enough to hold us down. And the way Gregg sings it, his voice has such expression, you can feel the passion behind the words. Melissssa! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Melissa performed by The Allman Brothers Band my name was going to be rachel but when my mom was on the way to the hospital and this song came on the radio she liked the name melissa then when the doctor asked what my name was my dad said melissa. What a jam! Cant listen to it enough | Reviewer: TheWienerman ------ About the song Southbound performed by The Allman Brothers Band Knees a bumpin, feet a tappin. This is such a great song. I always crank it. It always changes my mood to a more positive state. My good buddy Rusty loves the Allman Bros as well and whenever they are playing, he becomes invincible on the pool table!

Some how when listening to the song, as a 'Melissa',(or not), you can get lost in the lyrics. I admire, respect and love the song still, so much so, that I brought another "Melissa" into the world 20 years ago. Now she and I have more than a name in common, now we are BOTH stars in an awesome Allman Brothers song. Thanks so much for making all the "Melissa's" feel so "Sweet". Sweet Melissa, form Georgia. Sweet and Sad | Reviewer: paul ------ About the song Melissa performed by The Allman Brothers Band I have loved this song about a traveling man.the Gypsy! It touched my soul the first time i heard it and has been my favorite Alman Bros. song since then, a very long time ago.

Amazing live | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Whipping Post performed by The Allman Brothers Band I got to see the Allman Brothers live a couple of years ago at a music festival near my hometown...wow. I love their music, and this song, along with Soulshine, were amazing live. To my sweet Melissa | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Melissa performed by The Allman Brothers Band When my wife and I learned that we were going to have a little girl, there was no doubt in my mind that she would be named Melissa... Mainly after the Allman Brothers' tune that has been with me since I realized what music can do to one's soul. My wife did not even try to find another name as she also loves it, although she had never heard the song. Melissa was born this pas Friday December 7th and is all I could ever want. Sweet and beautiful, for the gypsy in me! To all Melissas' out there... stay sweet! Can you feel what he is singning? | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Whipping Post performed by The Allman Brothers Band Man. This song is just about the best rock and roll blues tune ever. This is Americas answer to Led Zeppelins rock/blues. The lead guitar and vocals at the end of this tune says it all. How someone could listen and not close their eyes and feel what this guy is trying to say is beyond me. One of the great classics of all time. Fabolus Sound (killer vocals and early slide guitar) | Reviewer: Jim Bass ------ About artist/band The Allman Brothers Band From when they were "31th Feburary" tell Greggs latest tour with "Gregg and Friends" They are hot. From "BB" to southern Blues and beyound.
