Acerca de esta escucha

One Way Out is the powerful biography of the Allman Brothers Band, an oral history written with the band's participation and filled with original, never-before-published interviews as well as personal letters and correspondence. This is the most in-depth look at a legendary American rock band that has meant so much to so many for so long.

For 25 years, Alan Paul has covered the Allman Brothers Band, conducting hundreds of interviews, riding the buses with them, attending rehearsals and countless shows. He has interviewed every living band member for this book as well as managers, roadies, and contemporaries, including Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, Jaimoe, Butch Trucks, Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks, Oteil Burbridge, the late Allen Woody, Jimmy Herring, Eric Clapton, Bob Weir, and many others.

Tracking the band's career from their 1969 formation to today, One Way Out is filled with musical and cultural insights, riveting tales of sometimes violent personality conflicts and betrayals, drug and alcohol use, murder allegations and exoneration, tragic early deaths, road stories, and much more, including the most in-depth look at the acrimonious 2000 parting with founding guitarist Dickey Betts and behind-the-scenes information on the recording of At Fillmore East, "Layla", Eat a Peach, Brothers and Sisters, and other classic albums.

Great book - helped me learn a lot about the band that I never really knew from just listening to the greatest hits. Listen to as much music as possible while reading/listening to this - definitely opened my ears to their back catalogue and rare tracks but also all the other bands associated with the ABB.

Very In Depth

There's not a better band and story than The Allman Brothers Band's. Duane Skydog Allman, best guitar player of all time and dead at 24. What he created and left behind could never be matched by any one player. He unknowingly created his own genre of music, what we all now know as Southern Rock. His story and the bands needs to be told in music and history classes around the world. Great book 👍 and starting point for anyone looking for the most fascinating story in band history from the point of view of the ones that lived, breathed, and bled it.

Legendary, fascinating, interesting, and tragic!!!

I thought I knew a lot about the Allman brothers having Japan since 1973. I found out a lot, and came away, admiring and understanding you guys I’ve been listening to all these years. Well done!

A worth while read for an ABB fan!

I enjoyed this from beginning to end, starting it again for a second time now!

Great book!

This is a nice history of the band's many incarnations and challenges and triumphs over adversity to achieve longevity and greatness. But don't expect any emotion or intrigue, just the facts ma'am.

A nice history but lacks emotion

Highly enlightening, honest, damn scary, and closure too!
I rank it up there w Robbie Robertson's 'Testimonial' for a backstage pass to an important band in the history of rock n roll. Loved it.

Would you listen to One Way Out again? Why?

Probably not. This account was not especially insightful.

What did you like best about this story?

Anything and everything about Duane Allman. Having always heard what a great musician he was I enjoyed learning some of his history

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

What with my love of music: YES.

Any additional comments?

I was astounded by the band's continuous battles.

What a Long Battle of the Band

What did you like best about One Way Out? What did you like least?

I learned a little about the Allman Brothers Band. I could not follow who was who from the reading.

Would you be willing to try another book from Alan Paul? Why or why not?

Probably not unless I knew more about the subject before reading the book.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

A movie would have been better than the reading of the book. I might go see it because I loved the movie "Almost Famous" and the beginning of this book reminded me of that movie.

Any additional comments?

I am not a fan or dislike The Allman Brothers Band. I have heard their music and I was interested in knowing more about the band itself. This book was good for getting some of the history behind the band for someone who knows nothing about them, but I would not recommend it to others like myself.

The author/reader writes/reads from each band member's POV. That is not a bad thing, if you know a little bit about the people. I had no clue who played what instrument or who was management/road crew before listening. The book did not help because the book introduces them and then quickly goes to another subject. So it might say something like, "So and so, the bassist from 1991-1993, says _____ about Greg Allman". Then 30 minutes after hearing about all the other instances of other things, it comes back to So-So (not reintroducing them at least a 2nd or 3rd time, so I could get my barrings about who is who). It was really hard at the beginning because they introduced so many band members/other characters at that point. It took me a 3rd of the book later to realize that Jay-mo played the drums. I did not realize until the end that Trux played the drums also. I thought that he played the bass. It was interesting to learn the story, but I would like to know who was talking and what their relevence was to band. Introducing the characters more than once would have helped. I hate to beat a dead horse, but I am going to. The reader never changed his voice for different people (except Jay-mo). If you are going to read a book that keeps going from character to character, you need either more people or someone that can change their voice a little. There were times that I did not realize that another person was giving his point of view about the same subject. I could not tell you who said what.

By the end of the book, I kept listening just to finish it. I have listened other books in the same format. And maybe I knew a little more about the subjects for those books, but they did have multiple people read and reintroduced the characters. It helped a lot.

If you know about the history of the ABB or go to their concerns or listen to their music regularly or grew-up listening to them and know who played what, then you may like this book. If you were like me and only knew that Duane Allman started a band and included his brother, Greg. Hell, I thought that the 2 brothers started the band and Greg was leader after Duane died. So, I did learn a little about the history. But if that is all you know, do not listen to this book because you will get confused and the stories will just ramble on like a "Rambling Man".

Not the biggest fan of the book or reader

The book was will written and researched. Great narration. Very sad story of incredible talent wasted by childish behavior. I am a Macon native and grew up during the heyday of the Southern Sound. Life was good.
As Great as the Brothers were, I feel that they left an indelible smudge on my hometown. It was as hard to hear of the seemingly endless stories of the Brothers' trials (literally and figuratively) and tribulations on the radio. They never could get it together like so many other great bands. I still love the music. This book "One Way Out" let me relive so many memories of my days in Middle Georgia. Those were my people. I don't believe a bit of the book was embellished. It was hard to finish the latter half of the book because it's like watching a brand new beautiful train headed off in the distance, knowing it is steaming toward a cliff.

Thank you

Very sad story
