The Allman Brothers Band Eat a Peach on Numbered-Edition 180g 33RPM 2LP from Mobile Fidelity: Audiophile Pressing Is Out of Print
1972 Double LP Includes Live and Studio Fare: Last Appearance of Fallen Member Duane Allman on an Official Release
Tributes to fallen icons don’t come any more poignant or illustrative than Eat a Peach. Released in early 1972, slightly more than three months after guitarist Duane Allman died in a motorcycle accident, the double album honors the musician via sides he recorded in the studio as well as several live performances that didn’t fit on the mammoth At Fillmore East. The Allman Brothers Band, determined to press on, also contributes a trio of songs completed after their soulmate’s passing. Its execution is near perfect, its concept timeless.
Mastered from the original master tapes and pressed on dead-quiet vinyl at RTI, Mobile Fidelity’s 180g 2LP of Eat a Peach joins the reissue imprint’s other Allman titles in presenting the superlative ensemble’s work in lifelike, uncompromising fidelity. Not only is the punch of the concert fare transmitted with full-range dynamics and realistic spaciousness, but the studio cuts—in particular, the acoustically framed “Melissa” and “Little Martha”—come through with astounding clarity and body, replete with textural richness that affords listeners images of fingers on frets and sticks hitting drum skins.
