This weeks classic album, played from beginning to end, was The Allman Brothers Band's Southern classic 'Eat a Peach', released in 1972 following the death of Duane Allman.

Here 's Duane and the band in September 23, 1970 recorded for a TV special 'Live at the Filmore East'. This footage wasn't used because Gregg Allman's mic was fried and you can't hear his vocals clearly. Nonetheless, the footage is superb and you get to hear the band in full flight.
