One of the best albums ever!

On This Day, May 28, 1973, The Allman Brothers Band Released Brothers and Sisters

⠀
On May 28, 1973, Brothers and Sisters became the most commercially successful album ever released by The Allman Brothers Band.

⠀
The record balanced emotional depth, Southern rock energy and melodic songwriting during a difficult period in the band’s history.

⠀
Its mix of country influences, extended musicianship and radio-friendly songs helped broaden the group’s mainstream appeal.

⠀
“Ramblin’ Man” and the instrumental “Jessica” became two of the most recognizable recordings in the band’s catalog.

⠀
Over time, the album became one of the defining releases of 1970s American rock.

Rest in peace Jimmy Hughes. Another Muscle Shoals music legend gone.

Today we remember Roger Hawkins, who passed away 5 years ago today.

One of the greatest drummers to ever sit behind a kit, Roger was the groove behind countless soul, R&B, and rock classics. As a key member of the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and co-founder of Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, he helped shape the sound of American music, laying down the beat on tracks by The Staples Singers, Paul Simon, Percy Sledge, and so many others. His playing was subtle but powerful, and always in service of the song.

Grateful for the music he gave us. Rest easy, Roger.🥁🖤
