Nine Allman Brothers Band albums have been remastered and will be released by Mercury/Universal Music Enterprises in July 2016 as part of a reissued collection.
The collection includes an expanded 2LP edition of The Allman Brothers Band; Idlewild South; 2LP copies of At Fillmore East and Eat a Peach; Brothers and Sisters; Win, Lose or Draw; the 2LP Wipe the Windows, Check the Oil, Dollar Gas; Enlightened Rogues; and the 3LP Live at Ludlow Garage: 1970.
The records were remastered from the original analog tapes by Kevin Reeves to 192kHz/24-bit and cut by Abbey Road Studios onto copper plates using their Direct Metal Mastering lathe for superior fidelity. The 180-gram vinyl LPs include exact replication of each album’s original artwork.
On the same release date, high definition digital audio (192kHz/24-bit and 96kHz/24-bit) downloads will be available for all of the albums.
“Having firmly established themselves as ‘The Grateful Dead of the South’ via their enormously successful 1971 Live at the Fillmore East double album, the Allman Brothers had just begun work on a new studio collection when slide guitarist Duane Allman died in a motorcycle accident. Undaunted, the group rallied together and completed Eat a Peach, which, via inclusion of the 34-minute-plus ‘Mountain Jam,’ blossomed into a double LP. While keyboardist-singer Gregg Allman shone on tracks like Sonny Boy Williamson’s ‘One Way Out’ and his own ‘Melissa,’ it was second guitarist Dickey Betts who came out from under the departed Allman’s shadow with his lead vocal on ‘Blue Sky’ and his incendiary playing throughout.” — Amazon.com
