But the 1992 version still had the essential members Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts on lead vocals. The final result still isn't great, but I think it's better than the fast fade-outs.Īs far as the music goes, I much prefer the early 1970s version of the band to their later versions, with markedly different personnel. So I patched in bits of the applause from other sounds to extend the crowd response a couple more seconds. Sometimes even that wasn't enough for the audience reaction to sound like it came to a natural conclusion. This typically restored a couple of seconds at the end of each song. One, I unfaded the fade-outs as best I could, meaning I steadily increased the volume as it was dropping, until there was nothing left to increase. The fade-outs were so obvious that they ruined the impression of hearing one continuous concert. However, it had one problem that annoyed me: the audience applause at the end of each song faded out after just a few seconds. Both of these extra songs come from bootlegs, but the sound is pretty close to the main concert. However, you wouldn't know it was six years later, since the acoustic sound is the same as the others. The last song, 'Steady Rollin' Man,' was done in 1998. 'Pony Boy' was played occasionally in concert in 1992, during short acoustic sets in the middle of longer electric concerts. I've supplemented it with two extra songs at the end. As a result, most fans of the band have never heard it. Unfortunately, it was only released on a limited basis for a limited time, with the benefits going to charity. But they put out an album called 'IRSA Acoustic Set' based on this concert.

The Allman Brothers Band never actually played for the MTV Unplugged TV show, as far as I know. This presents the best of their acoustic phase. But they jumped on the 'Unplugged' train in 1992. The Allman Brothers Band had never really played in the acoustic musical format before, at least not more than for a song here and there.

In the early 1990s, MTV's 'Unplugged' series was a popular musical trend, a reaction to the overproduction excesses of the 1980s.
