1970s - #3: Just about a month after Woodstock, on September 19, 1969, the counter-culture came to Cincinnati with the opening of a new club called the Ludlow Garage. The venue even incorporated pieces of the original Woodstock sound system. The Ludlow actually had been a garage, and patrons who entered the building walked down huge ramps that had once been used to bring cars up from the basement. The club was owned by Jim Tarbell, a former youth counselor who felt the best way to keep kids off the street was to put on a concert! He started in 1967 by holding shows in an abandoned church, but was so successful, that he needed more space. The 10,000 square foot Ludlow Garage, which could hold 1200 people, fit the bill. Though open for less than 2 years, the Ludlow hosted some of the biggest acts of the day, including the Santana, The Kinks, Humble Pie, Boz Skaggs, Alice Cooper, Grand Funk Railroad and Fairport Convention. As a result, the club earned the reputation as the “Fillmore of the Midwest”. This soundboard recording captures another legendary act, the Allman Brothers, playing at the Ludlow, on April 4, 1970, 54 years ago today.  Note - date on the back cover is incorrect.

Did they do a multiple night stand? Because the band commercially released an album from Ludlow's Garage with the exact same setlist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_at_Ludlow_Garage:_1970

The commercially released "Ludlow Garage" was not the complete concert. No Elizabeth Reed. Also date uncertain.
