ONE WAY OUT
The Inside History of the
Allman Brothers Band
by Alan Paul
One of America’s most
influential bands, the Allman Brothers Band has been making music together for
over 45 years. And while much has been written about them, the real story of
this legendary band has never been told in its entirety – until now.
Featuring a foreword and
afterword from founding members Butch Trucks and Jaimoe, Alan Paul’s new book ONE WAY OUT: The Inside Story of the Allman
Brothers is the first major biography of one of the greatest American rock
bands of all time. Written in oral history format with the band’s full
participation, it’s based on exclusive interviews with over 60 people
intimately related to the band — including all of its surviving members — and
features never-before-seen photos, letters and memorabilia.

ONE WAY OUT chronicles the band’s journey from its formation in 1969 to today. It offers exclusive musical and cultural insights and riveting tales of sometimes violent personality conflicts and betrayals, drug and alcohol use, murder allegations and exonerations, tragic early deaths, road stories, and much more, as told by the members themselves.
It includes the most in-depth appraisal of the
acrimonious 2000 parting with founding guitarist Dickey Betts and
exclusive behind-the-scenes insights into the recording of At Fillmore East, Layla, Eat a Peach, Brothers and Sisters, and other
classic albums.
“No journalist knows the
ins and outs of the Allman Brothers Band better than Alan Paul.”
—Warren
Haynes, the
Allman Brothers Band
“I
learned so much reading One Way Out. If you want to know the real deal,
read Alan Paul.”
—Oteil
Burbridge, the Allman Brothers Band
