They were awarded 7 gold and 4 platinum albums, were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995. Rolling Stone ranked them 52nd of the 100 Greatest  of All Time "We sure didn't set out to be a "jam band" but those long jams just emanated from within the band, because we didn't want to just play three minutes and be over, One of the pioneering bands in Southern rock, Rolling Stone referred to the group as "without question the first great jam band, and they took the jam to heights that it had not previously reached The group largely infused hints of the blues, jazz, and country into their music

The group intended their 2014 run of Beacon shows to be their last, but were cut short when Allman developed bronchitis.





They performed the final show on October 28, 2014. The show was the 238th straight sellout at the Beacon. Three sets, music from their first five, no guest musicians . "We had a band meeting and decided no guest sit-ins. We're going out with just the band," Allman said .The sets, ran into the early morning hours, the band joined together center stage and took a bow, with Allman recalling the  first rehearsal 45 years prior: "I met these guys in Jacksonville  1969. Now, we're gonna do the first song we ever played.,They performed "Trouble No More" by Muddy Waters. During  intermissions, a video screen said: "The road indeed goes on forever. So stay calm, eat a peach and carry on..."

One of the Greatest Bands that Ever Played.
