 The group's first two studio releases stalled commercially, but their 1971 live release, "At Fillmore East", represented an artistic and commercial breakthrough.The album features extended renderings of their songs "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" and "Whipping Post", and is often considered among the best live albums ever made.Group leader Duane Allman was killed in a motorcycle accident later that year, and the band dedicated "Eat a Peach" (1972) in his memory, a dual studio/live album that cemented the band's popularity.
