The Allman Brothers stood out for their effortless jams and grounded approach, letting their music shine without flashy gimmicks or posturing. "Every great band has among its manifold virtues a single striking characteristic that stands out as its instance of perfection. ⁠With the Allman Brothers it has always been their free-flowing improvisation. ⁠They were, from the very beginning, a jamming band making excellent use of their blues roots. With their mature and down-to-earth attitude, they seemed to almost consciously avoid the de-rigeur trappings of most rock bands. ⁠There were no fancy clothes, no hysterical sexual pantomimes. The Allman Brothers Band took both themselves and their music seriously." Patrick Snyder-Scumpy 📷Twiggs
