The Allman Brothers Band - Brothers And Sisters (1973)



Following the death of group leader Duane Allman in 1971, the Allman Brothers Band released Eat a Peach (1972), a hybrid studio/live album that became their biggest yet. Afterwards, the group purchased a farm in Juliette, Georgia to become a "group hangout." However, bassist Berry Oakley was visibly suffering from the death of Duane: he excessively drank and consumed drugs. After nearly a year of severe depression, things seemed to be looking up for Oakley before he was killed in a motorcycle accident not dissimilar from his friend's in November 1972.

The band carried on, adding new members Chuck Leavell on piano and Lamar Williams on bass. Brothers and Sisters was largely recorded over a period of three months at Capricorn Sound Studios in Macon, Georgia. Lead guitarist Dickey Betts assumed the role of band leader, and many of his compositions reflected a more country-inspired twang. The band did not replace Duane with another lead guitarist, although session musicians Les Dudek and Tommy Talton sat in to play on several songs. The album was being produced at the same time as vocalist Gregg Allman's solo debut, Laid Back, and features many of the same musicians and engineers. The front album cover features a photograph of Vaylor Trucks, the son of drummer Butch Trucks and his wife Linda. The back cover features a photograph of Brittany Oakley, the daughter of bassist Berry Oakley and his wife Linda.

The album represented the Allman's commercial peak: it was released to high sales, landing it at the top of the Top 200 Pop Albums for five weeks. "Ramblin' Man" became the band's first and only hit single, peaking at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1973. The commercial success of the record propelled the Allman Brothers Band to the forefront of popular music. The album's extended touring cycle saw the band performing in arenas and stadiums, all while drug use spiraled out of control within the group, in addition to strained friendship and miscommunication.
