The Allman Brothers Band, released in 1969, was the eponymous debut album of Southern rock group, The Allman Brothers Band.
The album sold poorly outside of Southern United States, reaching #188 on the Billboard charts. "Dreams" and "Whipping Post" would become the basis for two of The Allman Brothers' most famed epic concert numbers.
The song "Whipping Post" is part of the The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll list.[1]
