40

40 is a concert video by the Allman Brothers Band. It was recorded at the Beacon Theatre in New York City on March 26, 2009. It was released as a DVD on April 29, 2014. This concert marked the 40th anniversary of the Allman Brothers Band. For the occasion they performed all the songs in order from their first two albums, The Allman Brothers Band and Idlewild South. The show features the 2001 to 2014 lineup of the group – Gregg Allman (keyboards, vocals), Warren Haynes (guitar, vocals), Derek Trucks (guitar), Oteil Burbridge (bass), Butch Trucks (drums), Jaimoe (drums), and Marc Quiñones (congas, percussion, vocals). Critical reception In Glide Magazine Doug Collette wrote, "... 40 is so impeccably recorded in audio and video (the latter of which makes an often cheesy light show look impressive), it is comparable to 2003's Live at the Beacon Theatre DVD... 40'''s skillful camera angles, including as many panoramic shots as face to face close-ups of the players, present a scintillating vision of a band that over the decades has lost, recovered and maintained its unity in such a way it's turned the passage of time into a means of transcendence."
