The reunited Allman Brothers' first studio album in nine years proved to be one of their strongest sets ever, setting the stage for their '90s resurgence as one of rock's best live acts. The title song is a folk gospel number with much harmony singing (unusual for the Allmans), while "True Gravity" is a virtuoso instrumental that makes hair-pin turns between two chord blues rock vamps and skittering unison jazz riffs.
Although guitarist Dickie Betts wrote or co-wrote most of the songs, the rest of the material here isn't at all country-tinged. In fact, this is one of the band's bluesiest albums ever, from the old-time boogie woogie of "Let Me Ride," to "Low Down Dirty Mean," which begins as minimalist acoustic country blues and ends as a full-bore assault by the entire band.
