This is the BEST Gregg Allman album, not a bad cut on the entire album. Everytime I hear Floating Bridge I get up and dance to it. In my opinion he has never sounded better, so much more maturity and depth to his vocals. Would highly recommend it.

I loved this song from a singer many consider to be country. He is a multi-faceted performer capable of blues, rock and country. The sounds were beautiful and the songs meaningful. Loved it.

Gregg Allman pours his heart out all over this album with an urgency like the world is going to end tomorrow! His voice is great, the instrumentation is phenomenal. I'm not a huge blues guy, but this is a fantastic album from start to finish. Gregg Allman lays it all down on this one, a little sad, soulful, maybe even a hint of regret? Either way, it all comes together as a thing of beauty. Highly recommended!!

Great solo album from Gregg Allman. Super piano work from Dr. John, the ever reliable Doyle Bramall is on guitar, and the rest of the musicians are top shelf too. If you like your blues with a traditional flavor, but with modern sound quality, you'll be pleased with this.

I found this to be a pretty good recording overall and I'm certainly glad to see that Gregg Allman has gotten it back together. I find the tone a bit mournful(it is a blues album) but Allman's voice is solid and the band is good. Sure to please long-term Allman Brothers fans!

This is an excellent country blues CD; great driving CD. Can't wait to see Gregg Allman perform tracks from this CD this year at a local blues festival.
