On March 12 and 13, 1971, the Allman Brothers Band rolled tape at New York's Fillmore East for their third record, a double LP that became their first Top Ten seller and one of the greatest live rock albums ever released, a gold standard of electric-blues ecstasy and improvisation. Forty years later, on March 12th at the Beacon Theater – three nights into their annual New York spring residency – the group celebrated that album, At Fillmore East, by performing it in sequence and its entirety, from "Statesboro Blues" to "Whippin' Post." And that was just the first set. There was a special guest too, right at the opening notes. When guitarist Derek Trucks hit the intro lick to the supercharged arrangement of Blind Willie McTell's"Statesboro Blues," it was not on Trucks' usual red Gibson SG but a gold-topped 1957 Les Paul – one of the late Duane Allman's original guitars. The Beacon resurrection of At Fillmore East was, in one sense, dynamite illusion. The current-day Allmans – singer-organist Gregg Allman and drummers Jaimoe and Butch Trucks, who all played on the record; Derek (Butch's nephew), guitarist Warren Haynes; bassist Oteil Burbridge and percussionist Marc Quinones – inevitably played the album as it was immortalized, not as it happened in real time. The original seven-song track listing jumped back and forth between March 12th and 13th shows; the side-long expansion of Willie Cobbs' "You Don't Love Me" was a composite of versions from both nights. - rollingstone.com
