I can agree based on Derek’s obvious relation to ABB. However, Susan is east coast gal who went to music school. They are fantastic, for sure. Susan is a blues siren.
Derek Trucks is one of the most accomplished, respected, and talented guitarists in the world, and Susan's vocals are equal to his playing. Great selection for today's video. ❤
What a marriage. Everything seems almost like a conversation between two people in perfect tune with each other. She belts out a song and he answers her😊❤😊❤
@@larrypholbrookno you’re bang on 👌 have seen them both live and love them both; Love Bonnie’s voice and slide guitar and Tedeschi Trucksbamd are simply sublime live 🙏
It’s nice to see a married couple who can look at each other and smile. Derek and Susan are both great musicians. I think the track is from Eric Clapton’s Cross Road album
Their concerts are always epic! Yes, totally chill inducing. Derek is arguably the best slide player on planet Earth, but Susan can hold her own, too! Together they are perfection!!
My wife and I have seen Derek's solo band 35 times, Susan's solo band 30 times and the TTB 25+/- times. Have spoken to them both enough for them to know our names when they used to see us. I've been a music junkie for for 60 years and I'm 73. They are "good people", if not they couldn't play the music they do. All of us fans should be eternally grateful for their influence in our lives!
@@jackgtx440it’s people like you that made the lives of my colleagues in the ER and ICUs pure hell. You hate science until you need it to save your life. You anti vaxxers were the worse when you got it. 400,000 people died needlessly because of the anti vax movement and Trumps unwillingness to accept the virus was real. I may be blunt but when you see what I’ve seen this virus do, you get tired of the stupidity.
That explains why we've traveled to multiple states and have seen them 20+ times. We're completely blessed that they do a 2-weekend residency at the Chicago Theater every year and get to catch them relatively nearby. Our favorite band for sure!
Polo, your reaction to this great piece was golden. That this was a live performance without the studio control for audio just proves the point of excellence. Something about the tune, the musicianship, vocals, touches deeply. Long live Derek, Susan and the great TTB.
Derek Trucks is a beast on guitar. If you search Eric Clapton live in San Diego you can see him ripping it up with Clapton and the highlight of that show was the guest appearance from the great JJ Cale. On a side note Susan Tedeschi and Derek trucks are husband and wife
YES. Great reference treydog. I got to see Derek with Eric. What a great pair and they had Doyal Bramhall III on guitar as well. Just a night of guitarsonists. ....
The history of this band and it’s lineage can be traced back to the Allman Bros. Band. Susan Tedeschi was an established solo blues artist herself and quite the guitarist and slide player as well, but when your husband is Derek Trucks you have one of the very best ever. When they married it made sense to join forces musically as well, thus the formation of the Tedeschi-Trucks Band. Great music through and thru. Enjoy this new rabbit hole!
She’s a graduate of the best music conservatory in the world, the Berklee School of Music. She studied jazz and blues singing and playing. So many greats have come through there.
One of my favorite bands! These are very talented musicians 🎶🎤🎸 Susan has a voice like no other & Derek is the nephew of the late Butch Trucks, drummer for the Allman Brothers Band!! They are top notch!! Another band to check out in this same genre is Gov't Mule led by the amazing Warren Haynes who was also a member of ABB ♥️ Great choice!! Do you take requests from all tiers of your Patreon?
Susan Tedeschi's voice is cloak and dagger. She wraps you up in warm velvet and then breaks your heart with the pain that cuts through. One of our greatest living blues singers.
Susan Tedeschi is a great bluesy singer/guitarist and Derek is one of the greatest living guitarists. They were both great artists in their own right but when they started collaborating they got even better. They have both been nominated for and won Grammys
"Have to be of a certain age..." There's truth to that. I'm 58 and Susan has been on my radar for well over two decades. It's just not the type of music that's gonna make it's way to any Top 40 radio playlist.
Every time I visit a bar and the Jukebox is playing some rather vanilla stream of consciousness I'll pop in a 20 and take a few requests after having already put this song on and throw in a couple of Geneva Magnus and the whole vibe changes. We start getting deep cuts from some of the closet music hounds like me the generally don't have the audacity to interrupt the overplayed mediocrity and standard fare. Vanessa Collier, Etta James, Robert Earl Keen...
DEREK MFING TRUCKS !!!!!! LEGEND The band has a big following!!! Lots of people have no respect for quality music anymore. They are all amazing representing Jacksonville Florida GO SEE THEM LIVE
I was afraid that once Bonnie Raitt stopped singing we would never have another voice like that …..then I heard the first album by Susan Tedeschi….was just blown away….and then when she joined with Derek….knew it was going to be amazing
You will never get the same solo twice, but if you are not moved the first time you hear a live version of this song, you are soulless. Best touring band out there.
They're all there because they want to be there. They make beautiful music together. All differences aside, they find common ground in the beautiful music. That's how life's supposed to work.
I second this comment. They tour like crazy. They have a huge catalog of songs, your favorite souls songs, classic rock and originals. You will have a great time. Do not delay, buy some tickets and have fun. The reason I never saw Ray Charles? I'll catch him the next time he's in town.
This song was written by one of her back up singers. I just went to their concert and it was 3 hours long. Amazing band. It includes horn section. Dreck Truck was a child prodigy who played with the Allman Brothers Band at age 13 years old. She can also a great blues guitarist.
Derek is the nephew of Butch Trucks from Allman Bros. His younger brother plays drums in Widespread Panic. The bass player is O’tiel and he has been playing in Dead and Company the last few years. Every one in this band is the Alpha at what they do.
I listen to all kinds of music and I have no idea how I missed this band. I have never heard of them. Absolutely delightful. Thank you for your reaction video. I probably wouldn’t have heard them otherwise. Great vibe, great song.
@Cathidee, if you ever get the opportunity, you have to experience this band live. Just read the comments, I've seen them. One word...UNFORGETTABLE!!! 🌹
The more you listen to this band, the more you’ll want to listen to this band. So many delicious layers to their sound. So pleased that you’ve discovered them. Love watching your reactions, by the way. Keep ‘em coming.
Oh yeah Tedeschi.. Music for the Heart/ Soul. This song has a healing quality about it. Can't help but have watery eyes at some point, melancholy, beauty, rawness, hope, acceptance. Discovered them only a few years ago when I saw a jam session between Taj Mahal and them here on RU-vid. Instantly went out and bought the first 2 CDs i had bought in years to give to my 74 year old father who also has been playing them eversince
One of if not the best band you've never heard of. They are truly amazing not only as a band and musicians but as people as well. They are just down to earth, humble nice people.
As a worshipper of All Things Allman, I have been familiar with Derek's playing since he was young. He is the best of current guitarists. Hearing him in concert is more awesome than hearing the cd's and videos!
They are constantly on tour. We see them at least once a year and saw them just a few weeks ago. They have a pretty deep catalog so every show is different, and this includes how differently Derek plays this song’s solo each time. His stage presence is so laid back and Susan’s voice is so strong and never forced. Such a sweet couple who considers their fellow band mates to be family. Such an incredible band.
Polo, props to you for getting hip to one of the greatest bands currently performing. TTB is legendary in the jam band scene. Susan is highly respected as a vocalist, and Derek’s reputation in the guitar community is massive.
I've seen them live, it's always a pleasure to see them play and this tune is epic. Derek Trucks is probably the finest slide player there is right now, the whole band is fantastic.
Being from this generation I can’t believe I’ve never heard this song before. It’s going on my playlist right now ❤. Thank you for reacting to this so I can experience it too.
He is the world’s greatest slide guitarist. Derek Trucks has also played with his uncle Butch Trucks ( drummer ) in the Allman Brothers. These two are just divine here. Great selection!!!!!❤😊
Susan has said their two biggest influences are Allman Bros and Sly. lol. All ages are represented at their performances. As one stoned out of his mind millennial told me coming out of a Red Rocks concert, there is nothing in the world sexier than Susan shredding the blues. She is the Goddess and protector of Blues and Rock.
The entire band is remarkable... Susan's voice is out-of-this-world... Derek is the epitome of what a guitar prodigy is... there's not much more that can be said... Thank you for reacting to this one, Polo... I suggested this one quite some time ago, so, I've been waiting for this one...
YES!!!!! The best power couple out there and One of the best touring acts around right now, soooo good! Please keep the TTB coming, def give Let Me Get By, Part of Me, Circles around the sun, or if ya want a straight jam go with Pasaquan! Been seeing em for years and can never get enough
Derek Trucks!!!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Obviously a great song to begin with. THEIR version is beyond incredible. I’ve seen/ heard this over a dozen times. The emotion & powerful performance brings tears to my eyes EVERY TIME!!!
Polo my friend I just started watching your reactions both of their people her father was a great musician Derek trucks was young when I was growing up but he's been with the greatest blues musicians they're both deep in music since they where are young one of the great ones for you to listen to to give you something to focus on is tiny desk concert
Yes soul doesn’t know boundary, just passion which all of us have on this planet. I discovered this band about 6-8 years ago they had a connection to the Almond Brothers especially Gregg Almond notice the two drummers thanks Polo.
Derek Trucks is a child prodigy- been playing since he was 9 years old - his Uncle was Butch Trucks, drummer for the Allman Brothers Band. Susan is from Massachusetts - went to the Berklee School of Music - one of our finest music schools.
I love this band, and Susan on her own before that is amazing too. Angel from Montgomery, Kosmic Blues, Midnight in Harlem, Let it Burn, so many great songs...
Oh man this is the version without the horn section. Add so much to it but I love it anyway. Just saw them in consort. Such a fun live show! Awesome!!😊❤
When I first heard this band on a cable music channel, I got full body chills and got teary eyed. His guulitar skills and her voice and the entire 20 person band just amazing.
Just got this on vinyl today. Such a great band. There is so much talent on that stage. The Studio version has a brass section that just puts it at another level but this live version is amazing. Great reaction.
I definitely understand about being old enough to appreciate this style of music 🎵🎶. He definitely has that Allman brothers vibe ,and she is amazing. great band great song and great reaction. Peace my friend ✌️
I don't know about that, I and many others I know love the music from before our time. And I think a lot of people would love it if only they heard it somewhere. But for sure directly after I found Tedeschi Trucks Band I bought my 74 year old dad a CD, together with a Taj Mahal CD because I knew he would love it that oldy :)
A "beautiful moment" indeed. Been a fan of Susan's since I first found her solo work in the 90's. What an amazing, soulful vocalist, and an excellent guitarist in her own right. I was fortunate to see Tedeschi Trucks Band live last year. That band is without a doubt the best big touring band out there today. They took the stage, band starts playing, she starts singing, and it was 100x better than watching a video. Then Derek joined in, and the whole sound made me feel like I was being lifted off the ground, and nothing else mattered. Really glad you took a look at this amazing band, and I sincerely hope you get a chance to go to one of their shows sometime. It's an almost transformative experience. SO. MUCH. GOODNESS.
