Oh yeah "Hittin'The Note". What a remarkable album, I mean this is one of the best albums by anybody so far in the new century. Every song is great. Greg sounds so good still, so many guys who have been singing for as long as him have lost their voice but not Greg Allman, he was and still is one of the all time great blues/rock singers in the buisness.
The band is top notch, even without Dickey Betts, who I love, but this kid that took his place is incredible. This guy can play with the very best of them, and it took someone like him to replace the great Dickey Betts. We all know by now what Warren Haynes is all about, that is why I had to hit on Derek first.
Greg is still so smooth on the keys, I have always loved the way he plays, he is so underrated. The rhythm section is second to none, Jaimoe and butch play like they are attached at the hip Marc Quinones is terrific and Oteil Burbridge carries on the tradtion of fantastic bass players, the ABB would not be what they are without the rhythem section's that they have always featured. I truly believe that is what sets them apart, that is why they are such a great jam band.We sometimes get so caught up in the lead guitar work that we take these guys for granted.
I just got this album 3 weeks ago and I can not stop listening to it, it's been a long time since that has happened to me. I put this right up there with their best, if you do not have "Hittin'The Note" get it, you will not be sorry.
"Firing Line" opens up the album with a bang. The Allmans tend to open their albums with a harder track and this doesn't disappoint. Gregg Allman's vocals have become more raggedy over the years but they add to the emotion on the more introspective tracks, particularly on "Old Before My Time" and "Who To Believe." The diversity is still present with the Allmans whether it's on a harder rocking track like "Maydell", the acoustic "Old Friend", or an extended jam like "Rockin' Horse." The extended jams are clearly the high point on the album. "Desdemona" is a slow blues that turns into an extensive jazz jam supported by Allman's Hammond B-3 and features stunning solos from both Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks.
Many have commented that the band has suffered since the departure of Dickey Betts but I would disagree. The addition of new blood with Trucks and bassist Oteil Burbridge have added a new energy to the band they had been lacking, particularly on the Where It All Begins album.
"Rockin' Horse" is one of their best jamming tracks ever, particularly picking up steam during the guitar solos and Marc Quinones's conga solo which separates the solos. Their cover of the Rolling Stones' "Heart of Stone" is also a highlight with the band doing a respectable job of making the track their own. Other tracks such as "Woman Cross The River" and "High Cost Of Low Living" are very strong and add to the diversity of the album.
Then there's "Instrumental Illness." Dickey Betts was solely responsible for their excellent jazzy instrumentals in the past. Having said that, this track ranks alongside "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" and "Jessica" as their best. Oteil Burbridge carries the song with his driving bass line at times playing in unison with the guitar. This is the Allmans at their best, with all of them getting equal chance to show off, particularly with Quinones and drummers Jaimoe and Butch Trucks in the slower section of the track. Definitely one of their best albums, it can sit proudly next to Eat A Peach and At Fillmore East. Highly recommended.

Und ja, die hier zum Teil geäußerte Kritik, dass diese Musik keine Avantgarde ist, sondern alter Wein aus neuen Schläuchen, sie stimmt. Jetzt ist natürlich die Frage: Muss Musik immer neue Elemente, neue Ideen, neue Harmonien oder neue Was-Weiß-Ich enthalten, um gute Bewertungen bekommen zu können? Für mich muss sie das nicht! Mir reicht es vollkommen, wenn gute Musiker gute "alte" Musik in perfektem Zusammenspiel offerieren. Und daher kann ich eben nur 5 Punkt und eine Kaufempfehlung geben. Übrigens: Die zugehörige (weil ebenfalls aus 2003) Live-CD "One Way Out", die ich aus den oben genannten Gründen ebenfalls innig liebe und wärmstens empfehlen kann, am besten gleich mit bestellen! ;-)
