Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Not many expected this legendary outfit to have any pulse at all by 1990, much less a pulse throbbing so mightily. Fiery new lead and slide guitarist Warren Haynes is as suitable a replacement for Duane as you're likely to find, and new bassist Allen Woody takes a back seat to no one. Clearly, the new kids rejuvenated the weary veterans on this excellent offering, which kicks off the Allmans' second classic period. Seven Turns finds the band returning to form with its unmistakable twin-lead instrumentals, abrasive blues rock, and even the sunny Betts ballads. --Marc Greilsamer


From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD

Singer Gregg Allman, guitarist Dickey Betts, and trap drummers Butch Trucks and Jai Jaimoe are tirelessly ambitious instigators who know how to fire up the old engines without being enslaved to recidivist tendencies. Three fresh faces have saddled up with the original members, yet everybody's playing modulates with assurance and without showiness. -- © Frank John Hadley 1993

4.0 out of 5 stars Their best since Brothers and Sisters, August 27, 2006
By John Alapick (Wilkes-Barre, PA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
The Allman Brothers Band released their comeback album, Seven Turns, in 1990. The band was riding a wave of momentum as old fans were reminded of the band's powers with the release of their 4-CD box set retrospective, Dreams. In addition, a new whole audience discovered the band's greatness on their 1989 tour. Original members Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, Butch Trucks, and Jaimoe were joined by guitarist Warren Haynes, keyboardist Johnny Neel, and bassist Allen Woody. The inclusion of both Haynes and Neel indicate an attempt to not only recreate the magic of the two-guitar lineup of Betts and Duane Allman but to also relive their popular Brothers and Sisters album in which Chuck Leavell's piano added another weapon to the band's impressive arsenal. The infusion of new blood is very apparent as the performances on Seven Turns show a classic band regaining their hunger. Allman certainly was feeling the vibe as his vocals on this album are arguably the best of his career. Whether it's on the smoking rocker "Good Clean Fun" or on the bluesy tracks "Low Down Dirty Mean" and "Gambler's Roll", Allman sounds reborn. "Let Me Ride" is a cool country rocker from Dickey Betts while "Shine It On" is a driving slice of southern rock. "True Gravity" is another strong jazz inflicted instrumental to add to their collection and is highlighted by Neel's impressive piano solo. The title track is a modern classic in the country rock vein with a memorable chorus and some cool slide guitar during the outro. The remaining tracks "It Ain't Over Yet" and "Loaded Dice" are also very good. All told, while Seven Turns is not on par with their best work, it's a very strong comeback and easily their best album since Brothers and Sisters.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Nice Comeback, June 15, 2000
By G. J Wiener (Westchester, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
After many years of inactvity, these guys returned in fine form. Whereas this recording is not on the same level as Idlewie South or Brothers and Sisters, at least the raw honest roots of the Brothers exists on this disc. Greg Allman is in fine voice on the radio friendly Good Clean Fun as well as the haunting blues driven Gamblers Roll. Johnny Neel lays down some pretty piano runs throughout. Dickey Betts also makes his presence known on the spunky Let Me Ride It and the inspiring Seven Turns. The vocal arrangement is pretty unique on the later one as the Brothers tend to step out of their normal style a bit. About three tracks are somewhat ordinary and merely fill up the disc. But in general, this recording is more reminiscent of the Duane Allman Guitar driven days than the previous two recordings, Brothers Of The Road and Reach For The Sky which display a more pop oriented sound. Score one more for the good guys.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Allmans are back!!!, August 19, 2005
A great comeback after eight long years. Very bluesy tunes. The new cats are virtuosos on their instruments. Good Clean Fun shows Gregg Allman very dinstinctive voice full of power, True Gravity makes the strings shine on the top and Dickey Betts shows new skills in Seven Turns (sounds like The Eagles with a south flavour). Make a deal and get this in your collection and to the company records: please, put again the entire Allmans catalog specially the hard-to-find Shadows of Two Worlds, Brothers on the Road and the first Arista Label album...let me ride!!
