A kind of companion piece to the 1992 AN EVENING WITH THE ALLMAN BROTHERS, this compilation of live shows from 1992 and 1994 isn't as epochal as LIVE AT THE FILLMORE EAST (what could be?) but it's an excellent set in its own right. At the very least it demonstrates why the reconstituted Allman Brothers became such an in-demand concert attraction in the '90s.
Miraculously, even though some of the songs here had been in the band's repertoire for as long as 30 years, there isn't a rote gesture on SECOND SET; in fact, some of the performances--notably the Bob Diddley-beat jam section of "No One to Run With"--are downright inspired. Most revelatory moment--an unplugged acoustic version of the epic instrumental, "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed."
Allman Brothers Band: Gregg Allman (vocals, acoustic guitar, Hammond B-3 organ); Dickey Betts (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars); Warren Haynes (vocals, acoustic, electric & slide guitars); Allen Woody (acoustic, electric & fretless basses, background vocals); Paul T. Riddle (drums); Butch Trucks (drums, tympani, background vocals); Jaimoe (drums, percussion, background vocals).
