He is considered to be IT right now. People know Derek Trucks

@@MS-ht9it agreed. Not sure what acknowledgement dude wants him to have- Grammys? Those are a sham for the labels anyway. Cover of Guitar Player Magazine? Pfft. For wankers living in their moms basement. Sold out shows across the country for over a decade? Check. Every living musician worth a damn lining up to play with him and Susan? Check. Making music with his wife, his family and his best friends, in his own home studio, and getting paid to do it? Check, check, check. I don't know Derek personally, but i feel I could bet a fair bit of beer that he's got what he wants, and the rest is just worthless fluff.

@@bobf5360 you could not have said it better!!!!!

@@bobf5360 Very well said. I think what OP meant is that Derek Trucks should be a household name and he's not. Blues fans know him and great musicians know him, but can't tell you how many people I've mentioned TTB, Susan and Derek to and been met with blank stares. You say the names Hendricks, Clapton or BB King and even non-rock/blues fans know who they are. Its amazing that he's not known at that level because he's that great. All that said, I totally agree that he has everything he really wants. Its just us fans who think that he should be regarded with the same reverence as other all-time great guitar players.

@@jasonamato2153 thats a great point, and I'm sure thats the OPs point. I would say though, that there are a lot of artists that could fall into that category (eg, Charlie Hunter), and to some extent, I as an appreciator of their work, am glad the average person does not know them, because it means i can still get to see them play live for less than $500/ticket. ;-)

Janis passed the torch to Susan..She is the queen of Blues! I absolutely love her!💙🎸🎶

She's the only one on stage who had enough class to dress appropriately for a performance.

What a watchtower

google Tedeschi Trucks band and you will see much more , and discover another older famous band that Derek is a very close relative of ,

July 3rd they’re coming to Saratoga ny

They're ok. I really want to like them more, but their stuff all sounds so similar and is just mediocre... despite being a band full of amazing artists.

"susan ripping her solo" let's not get carried away here kids

@@ArbitraryLifestyle many styles of music exist for a reason .Im guessing you never played music professionally or had a passion about anything .Thank you for acknowledging the artist skills. Your arbitrary name is fitting .

Jacksonville?

Susan has been one of my favorites since I got her first album when it came out, I was in high-school ❤❤

Susan has been playing like that for close to thirty years.

I had no idea she was on Exp Hendrix Tours. Curious what tunes she played.

@@uberjam-sam8512 Pretty much whatever she wanted. The musicians at that level all respect the snot out of each other.

I love how Susan just looks like some regular lady from the library desk, then rocks the heck out of it and is a consummate musician and singer. No one else quite like her. And married to Derek, what a combination. I have loved them every time I’ve heard them play.

@@uberjam-sam8512: She didn't. None.

As an infant? Susan was born Nov.9,1970, she'll be 52 this week. You're wrong. Hendrix was dead when she was born.

They both are Great 💯

I’m pretty sure this is a bob dylan song that was covered by Hendrix then DMB

...boy...you really get it...

for sure RIP Michael Hedges, and for those who don't know > kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jtd3e6hmrNe-ZGg.html

Michael Hedges left us way too soon. His playing was perfection.

An Angel of the guitar.

Pretty sure they've done so a few times. Jambase will tell you for sure though.

Just saw an interview w/Derek where he said at their Beacon Theater shows last year they played 100 different songs over 6 nights. So if it wasn't on their list before, it probably will be now. But good luck catching it!

agreed. I love Dave, but he really should just let Susan sing this one. She nailed it.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard Susan NOT nail it. Or Derek. Seriously great people.

I said same thing to my hubby.

Why?

Derek on LIOG was 🔥 tonight

Actually it’s a great song, especially when people like this are rocking it instead of Dylan.
