With scorching live renditions of “Statesboro Blues” and “Whipping Post,” the 1971 Allman Bros. album, “At the Fillmore” has become a beloved live album among their fans. More than 50 years later, Baltimore’s own Ed Hough has assembled an all-star lineup of musicians to perform “At Fillmore East” in its entirety – along with other Allman favorites and deep cuts Nov. 15 at The Recher.
The band includes Ed and Mike Gambone on drums, John Ginty on keys, John Arthur on guitar, Dave Markowitz on bass, and Bobby Thompson on guitar.
Ed brought together a similar lineup in 2022 and 2023 for the 50th anniversary of the Allman Bros’ albums, “Eat a Peach” and “Brothers and Sisters.”
