At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band is one of the most famous live albums ever released. It was recorded in March 1971 during concerts at the Fillmore in New York.
There is also an extended version called The Fillmore Concerts with the live songs from Eat A Peach or the At Fillmore East Deluxe Edition which has another song added.
Tragedy wasn’t very far away from The Allman Brothers Band. Guitarist Duane Allman was killed in a motorcycle accident on October 29, 1971 in Macon, Georgia. On November 11, 1972, Bass player Berry Oakley died in another motorcycle accident only three blocks from where Duane Allman had his accident.
Live At Fillmore East has historical significance and whilst The Allman Brothers Band continued to record and tour, things could never be the same.
