This. song never fails to bring tears to my eyes . it's not the lyrics though they are meaningful.. it is the FEELING of the the music .. just what a great song is supposed to impart.. I saw them in NH a few years ago and wept openly at the greatness of the TTB... artistry inspires and awes

Added subscription, excellent approach to commentary. Tedeschi Trucks used to play locally (small mid-Atlantic city) until they were discovered by larger markets. Good for them for their well-deserved success. I'll search your library for mixing and production notes as well.

This is an old video, they have a horn section and 3 backing singers. The singer on the right is the song writer. I've seen them live and there's no band better live, period!

At last! This is a masterpiece by TTB! You gotta see them jamming with BB King on Rock Me Baby at the Crossroads Festival. Derek’s uncle was Butch Trucks with the Allman’s. Derek had been playing with ABB since his early teens. He is the greatest slide guitarist in the world today. ❤ Susan had a successful solo career as a blues singer / guitarist before she met Derek! They are married. I would say they’re the greatest working live band on tour today.

Midnight just tears your heart apart. First saw Susan in the 90's @ Castle Hill, Dereck playing Layla @ 13 with Clapton! What a combo like Raitt/Allman❤️

I love this video cuz she looks like she's having so much fun

They’re even better then they get credit for. If you e ever heard her in an interview it’w hard to believe she has that great of a soulful voice. Dereck just gets lost in the solo with such emotion and feeling. The entire band is amazingly talented

Welcome. I love these guys and this is their signature song. What a journey.

I remember Derek Trucks played with BB King, and he played a lick, and the King himself, BB said like: that’s the best thing I’ve ever heard. Play it again. I mean basically you cannot get higher praise then that! John Mayer was also on that stage, and he basically turned into a strictly rhythm player lol Great stuff!

I gotta say, it feels like Christmas to me that you plan to check out more! I hope you get trapped in that rabbit hole. First band that I’ve absolutely fallen in love with for decades. You cannot miss with any live track…I’ve watched and listened to them every night for the past year and they always deliver. They’ve had the same twelve piece ensemble together for the past five-ish years. All are accomplished at their craft and all get a chance to shine during the show. A lot of call and response, trading licks, etc, etc. One of my favorites is “Laugh About It” at the Tivoli Theater. Then maybe The Beacon 50th show and just start with the first song “Don’t Let Me Slide” where you get to see Susan flex on guitar trading leads and licks with Derek and you’re off to the races! As for the two drummers, Derek is the nephew of the late drummer Butch Trucks a founding member of The Allman Brothers Band, who had two drummers. Derek played with them during the 2000s. In TTB they complement each other and basically are often playing the same beat but a little differently, for instance as the band fades into Midnight in Harlem one guy is hitting the snare and the other is cross sticking, but otherwise their right hand and feet are the same. The Grateful Dead is the other band that leaps to mind that had two drummers who, I would say, did more of their own thing, one sometimes playing more as a percussionist, or maybe throwing in some polyrhythmic stuff.

What an incredible guitar playing, what a lovely melody and poetic lyrics. This type of blues makes my heart bleeding.

This is the channel to come to for reactions to really really REALLY good music. Thank you.

Thanks, Jeff. They always play feel-good grooves. Love it!

Nephew of Butch Trucks drummer for Allman bros.

😎🎙🌃😎

Derek Trucks is a fine and sensitive guitarist, as well as powerful. He has a good apprenticeship with the 21st century Allman Bross and, of course, with his own father, who was in the original Allman line-up playing drums. And yes, you're right Jeff, Susan has a fantastic voice for warm blues and elegant soul. It is a band that never disappoints.

They are great

1st off, almost any song with a B3 and Leslie is what i live for. 😁 2nd, any band that is in the family tree of the Allman Bros is also right up my alley as they may be my most favorite group of all time. i love this kind of meandering guitar that just keeps moving forward . great road trip music IMO. tyvm for posting. ☮❤🙏

Thank you............The bass player has moved to another band. He was the nephew of the Hammond Organ player, who passed away some time back (RIP). Susan and Derick have 3-4 kids together.

The bass player Oteil Burbridge played some with the Allman bros, as did Derek on the slide/guitar

Love this song.

The best band you've never heard of!

Listen to Darlin' Be Home Soon or when they have a full horn section.

Nice reaction. This song was written Mike Mattison who is the backup singer on the right. Derrick is the greatest slide player alive and may be the GOAT since Duane died so young. Try some other LIVE songs like Gravity, Everybodys Talking or The Letter. They do an amazing version of Layla also.

Oteil Burbridge (bass) and his brother Kofi (keyboardist) used to play for TTB. Oteil moved in but Kofi passed from cancer in 2019. It really hit the band hard. Since, Gavin DeGraw has taken over keyboards and also sings.

Thank you for this, I as well heard this song at random, had to Shazam it, unbelievably beautiful.. The 1975 oh caroline you might enjoy that video

Susan grew up in the town next to my hometown . I’ve seen her a few times ~ incredible. Please react to “I Pity the Fool” live in Boston a couple of years ago. Astounding! Great reaction!

Power Couple

Clapton's Crossroads 2010 festival This spot was supposed to be the Allman Brothers Band, but due to Greg Allman's last-minute liver transplant, plans were tweaked.

I never doubted that you would be blown away by this band. I think you will be totally overwhelmed when you watch some of my suggestions. Both Derek and Oteil Burbridge (bass player) played with the Allman Brothers on Whipping Post version I sent. Since it’s a 13 minute song I wouldn’t expect to see you do a reaction/analysis but just try to watch it yourself and let me know what you think. The two drummers with the Allman Brothers definitely played different parts on the drums. I sent the links on Patreon. Thanks. David.

You should really check out this band at the Orpheum. Called Susan blows the roof off the Orpheum. Susan shows she doesn't play 2nd guitar to anybody. Just a really really great video and performance.

Great reaction! They are amazing!

Keep on Growing-live at the Fox theater. It’s amazing ☺️

I Pity The Fool live from the Orpheum is an absolute must see!!!

Will look for your next reaction to them 😊 Dead..Allman Brothers...2 drummers..same beat yet offsetting..yes 2guitars playing off each..... good job grasshopper. 😊

FYI - Tedeschi is pronounced Ted-es-kee, like a key in the door.

@5:47 yep, it's like that

Mike Mattison, the taller back up singer on the right, co-wrote this song (lyrics) with Derek. He's done that for many of their songs.

There are videos of Derek Trucks playing guitar at like 7 years old in Pittsburgh. Bonkers slide guitarist.

Susan and Derek had different bands and when they decided to merge they just kept the 2 drummers.

Well heck, and here I was going to ask you Jeff why a band would have two drummers like that.

Ah ... the twin drums thing, yes. The Allman Brothers had two drummers (as is well known) and they came from different backgrounds. Butch Trucks was a rock drummer, whereas Jaimoe was a jazz drummer. I always thought of that pairing as Butch was the engine while Jaimoe supplied the ornamentation. Don't know if that's true for the Tedeschi Trucks Band though. Cheers man 🍺
