Peakin' at the Beacon is a live album by the rock group the Allman Brothers Band. It was recorded at the Beacon Theatre in New York City in March, 2000, and released later that year.
Peakin' at the Beacon was the first Allman Brothers Band album to include Derek Trucks on guitar and Oteil Burbridge on bass, and the last to include founding member Dickey Betts.
The instrumental "High Falls" was nominated for Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the 44th Annual Grammy Awards, losing to "Dirty Mind" by Jeff Beck.
This version of the Idlewild South track "Please Call Home" was featured on their greatest hits album The Essential Allman Brothers Band: The Epic Years.
