When you listen to this!!the rhythms are totally infectious. and WHAT A VOICE!!
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2017
Recorded at FAME Studios at Muscle Shoals in Alabama. It's like a coming-home for Gregg since he worked in the same studio some 50 years ago with his and brother Duane's band, Hour Glass. Commensurate with his own talents, Gregg recruited his touring band as the studio backup to his goodbye album. He sings what could be hanging memories of his own life.
Gregg's only original composition as a co-writer, "My Only True Friend", crystallizes his love of a life continuously road bound coupled with the realization that the road is coming to an end. Few blues-rock ballads, if any, beat this ghostly song. The guitar work packs it home.
Gregg Allman was drawn to the blues his entire life because he felt it drawing all around him. And that's why his interpretation of Willie Dixon's "I Love the Life I Live" competes with Muddy Waters or of any bluesman. He certainly vies with Lowell George's classic, "Willin'", and he somehow defines the Grateful Dead's "Black Muddy River". That last one's a real rust dripper. It's in these two songs in which Gregg's soul triumphs over adversity. He knew they were meant for him.
Maybe Gregg's most interesting characteristic was that the blues didn't inflect everything he thought about music. He had that other musical personality that was beholden to both soul music and the singer-songwriter movement. The old Percy Sledge tune, "Out of Left Field", has those soulful horns turn up as if they came right out of Stax Records along with Gregg's soulful vocals.
Bob Dylan's great "Going , Going, Gone" is the most unusual song for Gregg to tackle. It's so despairing in its decision-making of either living or dying. But his voice, propelled by Greg Leisz's pedal steel guitar, make this song wholly convincing. However, it's on "Song for Adam" that provides this album's most haunting moment. Gregg has always had a way with a Jackson Browne tune and this is arguably more gripping than "These Days" from his 1973's "Laid Back". He chokes up towards the end of the song as if the gravity of the moment overtakes him and he can't finish it. It makes sense because the track has so much of him and Duane in it. It's a winning detail of Don Was's production in leaving it as is; rendering it more poignant.
Literally, right until the end of his life, Gregg guided this music to his satisfaction. He mastered every musical form that he touched and his voice assures him a certain immortality. "Southern Blood" is an open letter - the audio equivalent to "My Cross to Bear".

This Album leaves me greedily wanting it to never end. His choice of songs to cover on this album, I feel, he's taking us on our final journey with him. It's his way of saying; "Thanks for joining me on this ride. I love you." I'd love to write him and say thank you for the years of music. But, instead I whisper 'Thank You' as I listen to this Album. The first song, on the album, is his only song he wrote called; "My Only True Friend" is obsessively beautiful. Even if he hadn't passed away, this song stands on its own, it's that great. I can't not shed a tear playing it. I bought this album on vinyl because I still have the Allman Brothers on vinyl and this, being Gregg Allman's final album, well, I felt it's the right thing to do. The record is brown, which is cool. Is the vinyl a grade A vinyl? No. The edges are not smooth and rounded as records should be. The edges feel sharp and uneven. But I love holding this album and having this experience once again. The sleeve, that holds the vinyl record in, has comments from Don Was, and Gregg's children. Don Was' comment near the end explains making the final song by Jackson Browne, "Song For Adam," it's a must read. I know, one day, I'll read it without tears. Along with the vinyl record, there's a 12x12 copy of a picture of Gregg Allman in his youth with that gorgeous long hair. His daughter explains in her comment about the title of this album and the picture. Again a must read. While I was taking out the record to play, a business size card came out which was a coupon for a free download of this record. I went online and got the download. Thank You 'Rounder Records' for that extra gift.
Thank you Gregg for a captivatingly beautiful final album and thank you for the years of music. You truly are loved and missed greatly!

Wow this is a tuff one. First time in my life I've ever listened to an album for the first time and got choked up and had to fight back the tears forming in my eyes. This is not an up lifting record by any means but a great way to see how Gregg looked at things as he was reflexing back on his life and helped me reflex on my own. Don't get me wrong this is still a great blues record but nothing really rockin' about it except maybe "Love Like Kerosene". I was lucky enough to have met Gregg back in the 80s in of all places Anchorage Alaska. I remember thinking how easy going and humble he was and how he didn't seem to have a pretentious bone in his body. The gal I was riding with was embarrassed about her beat up van we were all riding in and when Gregg noticed he said "Hell don't worry about it Darlin' I drive a beat up old farm truck when I'm back home" and I thought wow how cool was that. I can only imagine the reunion with Duane and the lengthy late night jams going on right now with all the rest of the greats in Rock And Roll Heaven... R.I.P. Brother and thanks for a lifetime of Kick Ass Southern Rock and Blues music.

It doesn't have the magic of the Allman Brothers at their peak but there is some good guitar playing on this CD and it was Gregg Allman's last album, so listen to it with respect.

What a fantastic album. I have the cd from when it was first released but finally got the vinyl, and I'm glad I did as it sounds much richer on vinyl. I'm still very sad at it being Greg Allman's final album, but what a way to make your exit.

Un dernier pour la route ...
Reviewed in France on September 11, 2021
Dernier opus solo (posthume) du cadet des frères Allman qui, pour une fois, ne reprend aucune des chansons qu'il avait composées pour le groupe qui les a rendus célèbres, lui et son aîné, Duane, mort à 24 ans après avoir tracé un sillon météorique dans le monde de la musique et plus particulièrement celui de la guitare (pour les moins avertis ou les plus jeunes, la slide du "Layla" de Clapton, c'est lui ).
Mais revenons à Gregg, auteur-compositeur, chanteur et organiste Hammond d'un grand nombre de titres de ce groupe et créateur associé du mythique "rock sudiste", mélange de rock, blues, soul, jazz, country, blue grass et autres courants fondateurs de la musique populaire américaine .
De ce rock sudiste, point dans cet album pour lequel, Gregg, pressé par la maladie n'a pu composer que le titre d'ouverture, "My only true friend" dans lequel il évoque "la route" comme son (sa) seul(e) ami(e) .
Disque-somme, non car l'oeuvre laissée par Gregg Allman est plus riche et diverse encore mais bien un disque-testament à la fois digne et mélancolique, porté par cette voix si reconnaissable . Le répertoire est emprunté à Tim Buckley, Bob Dylan, Jerry Garcia, Lowell George, Dan Penn et à ce bon vieux blues qui a toujours accompagné Gregg (Willie Dixon et Muddy Waters) .
Les titres se suivent comme autant de pavés sur cette route suivie par Gregg au long d'une carrière et d'une vie bien remplies . Mention spéciale à "Blind bats and swamp rats" que le regretté Dr John n'aurait pas reniée . Et à "Song for Adam", écrite par son copain Jackson Browne, dans laquelle transparaît une émotion palpable à l'évocation transparente de ce grand frère trop tôt disparu, qui clôture l'album . Les musiciens sont impeccables, en particulier, son guitariste Scott Sharrard qui contribue à l'écriture pour un titre présent sur le dernier album "live" officiel de Gregg . Quant à la production, elle est signée Don Was et c'est tout dire .
Quatre étoiles seulement parce qu'on regrettera toujours que la maladie ait empêché Gregg d'écrire tous les titres qu'il aurait souhaités et parce que le DVD bonus nous montre si peu de chose de son processus créatif . Au total, une fin en beauté avec un grand album qui prouve que Gregg Allman était un artiste à part entière et pas seulement l'un des fondateurs du groupe américain le plus célèbre de sa génération .

This is another excellent album from Gregg Allman. It's a fine companion piece to 'Laid Back' and 'Low Country Blues'. Gregg Allman made some great music with the Allman Brothers and as a solo artist. He will be sorely missed but never forgotten.

SANGRE SUREÑA
Reviewed in Spain on September 28, 2017
Magnifica despedida de Gregg, fallecido el pasado 27 de marzo, pero con un álbum de despedida, este, preparado para cuando lo inevitable sucediera. Este año hemos tenido varios ejemplos de este tipo, Cohen, Bowie y ahora Allman. Disco preparado al milímetro. Canciones elegidas por el como homenaje a otros amigos..en definitiva ; una despedida en toda regla, incluso eleccionario del estudio de grabación. La música, la de siempre, puro sonido sureño. La producción a cargo de Don Was, perfecta. Es un disco que hay que tener, imprescindible. Que Dios lo acoja en su seno y tenga un poco del Sur en el mas allá

A Great Career Finale
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 24, 2017
This is a truly brilliant record. 10 songs, all of a great standard (plus a couple of bonus tracks and the amazing bonus DVD).
If you like Gregg Allman, you'll love this album, and I think it'd be a great place to start for anybody new to Gregg as well. Like it mentions in the DVD, Gregg wanted to make an album that defines him, and this is it. A nice selection of different styles, presented in a coherent package that is more than good enough to stand aside Gregg's previous triumphs.
We've lost a great talent with the death of Gregg Allman, but this album is the best way he could have gone out, with music that we will love forever.
5/5.
