The Allman Brothers Band : Boston Common, Boston, Massachusetts 8/17/71



I DROWN MYSELF IN SORROW

AS I LOOK AT

WHAT YOU'VE DOWN

NOTHIN' SEEMS TO CHANGE

BAD TIMES STAY THE SAME

AND I CAN'T RUN



 Boston Common, 8/17/71 

is a live album

 by the rock group

 The Allman Brothers Band

As the name suggests, 

it was recorded at

Boston Common in

Boston, Massachusetts

on 

August 17, 1971. 

It is the fifth

 archival release by

 the Allman Brothers Band 

Recording Company, 

and the third one

 to feature t

he original lineup 

of the band. 

It was released in 2007, 

and re-released in 2014.

Allmusic said, 

"The group's outdoor appearance

 in Boston occurred 

six weeks after the release 

of their breakthrough album, 

At Fillmore East

and ten weeks before

 [Duane] Allman's death. 

The song selection doesn't

 just repeat the tunes from

 the Fillmore East disc, 

the band opting instead for

 a few songs not heard on it... 

This is an album for the faithful, 

and it will not disappoint them.

"All About Jazz said, "

... it will remind both 

the aficionado 

and the dilettante

 that the scintillating peaks 

scaled by the Brothers' 

At Fillmore East 

were nevertheless revisited 

fairly regularly. 

The group brings an edgy energy

  and, during the 

lengthiest improvisations, 

an altogether melancholy majesty

 – to a fairly standard set."
