NOTE: Dedicated To A Brother - BERRY OAKLEY.
BROTHERS AND SISTERS is the fourth studio album by American rock band The Allman Brothers Band. The album was released in August 1973 in the United States by Capricorn Records. Following the death of group leader Duane Allman in 1971, The Allman Brothers Band released Eat A Peach (1972), a hybrid studio/live album that became their biggest yet. However, bassist Berry Oakley was visibly suffering from the death of Duane, excessively drinking and consuming drugs. In November of 1972, after nearly a year of severe depression, Oakley was killed in a motorcycle accident (not dissimilar from Duane’s), making it the last album on which he played. The band carried on, adding new members Chuck Leavell on piano and Lamar Williams on bass. BROTHERS AND SISTERS was largely recorded over a period of three months at Capricorn Sound Studios in Macon, Georgia. Lead guitarist Dickey Betts assumed the role of band leader, and many of his compositions reflected a more country-inspired sound. Session guitarists Les Dudek and Tommy Talton sat in on several songs. The album was being produced at the same time as vocalist/organist Gregg Allman's solo debut, Laid Back, and features many of the same musicians and engineers. The front album cover features a photograph of Vaylor Trucks, the son of drummer Butch Trucks. The back cover features a photograph of Brittany Oakley, the daughter of Berry Oakley. The album represented the Allmans' commercial peak: it has sold over seven million copies worldwide. "Ramblin' Man" became the band's first and only hit single.

BROTHERS AND SISTERS doesn't match what came before it but would probably be considered a masterpiece if it came from most other bands. The Allmans move away from their rougher blues rock toward a groovier Southern rock, a shift that reflects the increased influence of Dickey Betts and new pianist Chuck Leavell. Betts contributes chestnuts such as "Ramblin' Man," "Southbound," and the classic instrumental "Jessica," plus the acoustic finale "Pony Boy," which showcases his work on dobro. Gregg's impact is not nearly what it once was, although his "Come And Go Blues" and "Jelly Jelly" hit the mark. The tracks appear on the album in the order in which they were recorded, and the first three, up through "Ramblin' Man," feature Berry Oakley -- their sound is rock-hard and crisp. The subsequent songs with Williams have the bass buried in the mix, and an overall muddier sound. The interplay between Leavell and Betts is beautiful on some songs, and Betts' slide on "Pony Boy" is a dazzling showcase that surprised everybody. Despite its sales, BROTHERS AND SISTERS is not quite a classic album, especially in the wake of the four that had appeared previously, but it served as a template for some killer stage performances, and it proved that the band could survive the deaths of two key members.
