I may be Captain Obvious here, but Duane Allman and Dickey Betts' solos on the Fillmore album are fantastic. They alone make the album worth hearing.
you are
I invested in the whole damn shebang... the entire ABB Fillmore boxset that came out last year. Every show... every song. Amazing stuff man... especially to hear just how they play the same songs ..differently every time on different nights or later the same day (played several shows a day those days). Amazing group. One that I could have.. and should have pushed for inclusion here and would have if I didn't burn my goodwill with the SD addition . There is a reason that bands is beloved by fans and often written about on jazz sites. Duane was a student of Coltrane but instead of playing a sax, he played guitar haha.
Not only was the best group this country ever produced... it was also the best jazz-rock band bar none.
speaking of.... god I would sell my soul to have his voice... and I'd give my ass to any of you if you could sing like him.

Did anyone ever know whether "arctic ambient", i. e. Biosphere's self-categorization, became a real subgenre? I kinda get a similar aesthetic vibe off Boards of Canada, Sleep Research Facility, Stars of the Lid and Tycho even though those projects don't sound that much like.
It's a very good atmosphere for minimalistic ambient to go for, though, or maybe I'm saying that because I'm Scandinavian.

An interesting related question: is there such a thing as a "real subgenre"? I guess if enough people say yes, then there is. Interesting metaphysics there, at any rate.
