No Stranger to the Dark- The Best of Gregg Allman

Laid Back By the end of 1973, the Allman Brothers Band seemed to have it all nailed down. They'd proven their mettle with a fine synthesis of blues, jazz, folk, and country influences; expanded upon it with the definitive Fillmore East set; and moved forward after the separate losses of gu...	I'm No Angel	A Decade of Hits 1969-1979 With their dueling guitar leads and harmonies built on a double drummer foundation, the Allman Brothers Band cast the mold for the southern rock sound that would proliferate in the '70s. Virtuoso musicians, their songs drew upon a number of southern influences, including country,...	Playin' Up a Storm Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) paper sleeve pressing. Universal. 2008.	Searching for Simplicity A possible admission of the excess that marred Gregg Allman's past efforts outside the Allman Brothers Band is the title of his 19997 solo release, Searching for Simplicity. More often than not he finds it. And with the clutter of strings, choirs, and synths removed, Allman's sou...
20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Gregg Allman	Just Before the Bullets Fly	Stand Back: The Anthology	The Allman Brothers at Fillmore East There has never been a better showcase for improvisational rock than this 1971 concert recording, and few (if any) live rock albums are in its rank. With only two studio albums (and plenty of touring) under their belt, the Georgia sextet tore into the Fillmore East with road-test...	An Anthology While his recording career only lasted a little more than six years ('66-'71), Duane Allman's playing was heard not only with the Allman Brothers Band, but on a variety of important records by other artists as well. Hence this posthumous 1972 double-album collection, which--besid...

Excellent..... Gregg Allman is a joy to listen to on my hour ride to work

Unique voice
Gregg Allman continues to release great music. Gregg's increasingly craggy vocal makes his songs very unique. This collection highlights many of his best known songs. It provides a solid introduction to the definitive bluesy and Southern rock, Gregg Allman's Style. Highly recommended.

Pretty much covers it
Nice mix of tunes. If "Fear of Falling" were included, I'd have given it the 5th star. Otherwise, this about covers it. Some nice extra live tracks and an unreleased one to boot.

Still Bringin' It!
Gregg Allman can still bring down the house after about thirty five years in the biz. This album is well worth the price. Gregg Allman is an excellent entertainer on his own. One thing I was looking for on this album is whether or not he had any help from anyone else in the Allman Brothers Band. He did not. However, there are some notable musicians on this compilation, such as Jim Horn-the saxiphone player for Garth Brooks and Billy Joel in Central Park in 97. Also featured is Jimmy Hall on harmonica. Jimmy played on some of Charlie Daniels' live stuff. Other than Gregg Allman and these, I could not find any names that I recognized.

Nice Late Solo Career Overview.
If you like the Allman Brothers, then "The Best Of Gregg Allman" is a must have collection for any fan. The cd collects some real gems from his Epic records solo albums like "Just Before The Bullets Fly", "I'm No Angel" and "Searching For Simplicity". The smokey growl of Allman is in fine form on The rocking hit "I'm No Angel", "Slip Away", "Ocean Awash The Gunwale and "Brother To Brother". Three previously unreleased tracks are here as well. One can see that alot of care and effort went into this cd package. The liner notes are simply fantastic and each song gets a narrative from Gregg himself and finally some great photo's along with a bargin price makes this collection a real value. Gregg allman is without a doubt one of the truly under appreciated blues singers of the rock era. Just keep in mind that this collection covers 1987 to present. If you desire his early solo work You Should checkout the Gregg Allman "Masters Millennium Collection". The ultimate Solo Collection Is the out of print 2 disc Anthology set which can be found on e-bay or second hand cd shops if you look long enough.
