….They’re considered heavy psych or doom …

@Choko. Great!

My favorite band in here was Elder over the last years.

[Choko]

@Aetas I love Elder!

[SKT]

This is cool. Thanks for turning me onto him @GraemeE

[GraemeE]

@SKT I haven't seen this one
Can't wait

This is from last night. Don't know how long they're going to leave it up. Just absolutely fucking stellar! I wasn't there.

[endo]

so excited to see them in Plovdiv

[Aetas]

@endo Looking forward to the unique story and pictures you’ll show us.

I met someone last night who is doing a trip to Croatia and Greece and catching Gizz in Athens. I could hardly contain my envy.

Great rendition of Soul Shine. Derek/Warren trading licks at the end is as good as it gets. Someone posted...Derek is finally out of Tedeschi-Trucks jail.

@Jett129 I like Tedeschi Trucks but Derek Trucks band was on another level. And now half of them are dead so there will never be a true reunion.

To wit, this one with my friend Bill McKay on the keys and vocals:

Tunde Adebimpe from TVOTR has a solo record dropping today.

@mclaincausey The clip you posted was pretty cool. I really want to like Tedeschi-Trucks,but I just can’t get into them. Maybe it’s the horns. I also can’t,for the life of me,get in to Govt. Mule,but put Derek and Warren in the Allman Brothers or a band playing the music of The Brothers and ,for me,it’s magic. They look like they genuinely enjoy playing together.

@Jett129 Derek Trucks band had a wildly talented lineup. Todd Smallie on bass (he and the aforementioned Bill McKay live here and play with a lot of my friends--nice fellas). Mike Mattison on vocals--gravelly, husky, great voice (and he went to Harvard!). Yonrico Scott (RIP) was a monster drummer. Kofi Burbridge (RIP--his brother Oteil played for ABB and is in The Brothers clip you posted--I hope they tour) was extremely talented on multiple instruments and vocals. And others.

Susan Tedeschi Band and Derek Trucks Band effectively merged some members and a few were left out in the cold.

But what was lost was unique jazz and world music influenced experimental blues and soul. It's a damn shame. It feels like he was following his muse, and now he's following their muse.

Songlines Live is a highly recommended audio or video release to hear what the sounded like live, and they have Live at Georgia Theater and Roadsongs too.

@mclaincausey that's painful.....I can definitely enjoy a drummer sitting just behind the beat but this is something different altogether

[GraemeE]

....that or dilla time

[Jett129]

@mclaincausey In light of the fact that he’s playing with such conviction and confidence,is it possible were missing something because the mix is so drum heavy. Only thing I can think of.

[mclaincausey]

@Jett129 yeah he’s a notoriously bad drummer in terms of timing and dynamics but I think his partner likes it that way. It worked for the early Keys simple bluesy stuff somewhat but he hasn’t been able to keep up with the band’s evolution and somehow hasn’t improved in 20 years. Just sounds aggressively bad now. I got a chuckle out of it.
