Warren Haynes (guitar), Johnny Neel (keyboards and harmonica) and Allen Woody (bass guitar) joined, while Leavell and Williams remained apart; the former on tour with the Rolling Stones, and Lamar Williams dead from cancer in 1983.

In the wake of the Allman Brothers Band's success, other Southern rock groups sprang up, including Lynyrd Skynyrd and Blackfoot. The album was accessible and laid-back, and the band was bigger than ever. Brothers and Sisters included the group's best known hits, "Ramblin' Man" and "Jessica", the latter a seven-minute instrumental hit. The album marked a shift of direction towards country music, due partially to the loss of Tom Dowd, as well as the increasing influence of Dickey Betts, who soon became the bandleader.

It showcased the band's unique mixture of jazz, classical music, hard rock and blues.

The album was another huge hit, and is now remembered as one of the best live albums of all time. 1971 saw the release of a live album, Live at Fillmore East, recorded earlier that year at the legendary rock venue, the Fillmore East. Idlewild South (1970), the followup, produced by Tom Dowd, was a massive critical success, and managed to be quite lucrative, as well.
