Brothers of the Road is a concert video by the rock group the Allman Brothers Band. It includes songs from two concerts, one at the University of Florida Bandshell in Gainesville, Florida, and one at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York. It also includes several songs from a hotel room jam session, and several songs from an "unplugged" studio session. It was released as a VHS videotape in 1982, and as a DVD in 1998.^[1]^[2]^[3]

Brothers of the Road features the 1980 to 1982 lineup of the Allman Brothers Band – Gregg Allman on keyboards and vocals, Dickey Betts on guitar and vocals, Dan Toler on guitar, David Goldflies on bass, Mike Lawler on keyboards, and Butch Trucks and Frankie Toler on drums. In 1981 this lineup released a studio album that is also called Brothers of the Road, but the concert video includes live performances of only two songs from the album – "The Judgment" and "Never Knew How Much (I Needed You)".
