The Allman Brothers Band - Manley Field House - LP

1972 Live Recording from Manley Field House, Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY featuring the Five Man Allman Brothers Band line up following Duane Allman's untimely death. This lineup existed for only 11 months. First official recording of live concert performance taken from original source material not radio broadcast.
Pulled from the original source recording and remastered, Manley Field House, Syracuse University, April 7, 1972 will become available on CD and digital for the first time, as an official band release January 12, 2024 via the Allman Brothers Band Recording Company. This show has been widely circulated as a fan-favorite radio broadcast bootleg for years, however this release is the first to include the complete show with the highest audio quality preserved from the direct source. The band’s performance at Manley Field House, the school’s indoor track and field facility, was recorded and simulcast on Syracuse University’s WAER college radio on the night of the show, and subsequently rebroadcast by the station and some of its’ former staff members as they moved around in radio. The recording was made with the ABB’s cooperation and authorization using an auxiliary mixing board on the side of the stage with a feed from the ABB sound desk. The 11-track collection features set staples from this period including show opener “Statesboro Blues,” “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed,” “Midnight Rider,” and “Whipping Post,” as well as “Ain’t Wastin’ Time No More” off their then newly released album Eat a Peach. “Syracuse Jam,” included here for the first time, is an example of the one-time melody jamming the band was famous for and is unique in that it does not appear in any other known ABB recording.
