To me, you got the the greatest guitar player of his generation/all time, partnered up with one of the absolute greatest singers with an astonishing voice, who have unbelievable musical chemistry…all wrapped up in a fantastic band. This is almost everything I want in music.
thanks for keeping "The Band" and other artists alive and relevant to a generation that might have missed the boat. would be a shame to see all the beautiful works done by them and countless others to sit idle while the years flow by!
They are awesome but this version is not as good as the original and it is simply boring. Doesn't have anything interesting extra. There's no emotion there's no extra fun there's no irony or inside anything it's just the song.
The horn section is Bored the chorus singers are bored the guitar solo was of course awesome but what is the point. He's not wishing his girl is coming back he's not saying that he wants you to stay he's just playing guitar
I was there at Red Rocks (I am always at Red Rocks for TTB!). They came out smokin' and kept the energy going the entire night. They are the best collection of live musicians on the road or in the studio today. It's not even close. ❤🎶🌈
These folks are great and you have to love contemporary bands playing the good ole stuff. As good as these bands are, I can't help but think how great The Band truly was. I am sure not to many people on this stage would be upset with my assessment of "great but not as good as The Band."
Listen to Tedeschi Trucks original music. Covers are rarely as good as the originals. But when it comes to musicianship and instrumental prowess, Tedeschi Trucks stacks up, especially Derek. Among the greatest to ever pick up a guitar.
Seems like there's a time during everyone of Trucks solos where I just find my self smiling/lol-ing. Not taking anything away from all these superb players but, man, every time.
I know what you mean, brother. Can't believe it's never occurred to me how awesome it would be to add Derek's superb playing to this classic groove. Damn!
@@lesheathjr4494 this is The Band's arrangement and the song was written by Brian/Eddie Holland and Lamont Dozier. But yes Marvin recorded it before The Band, I believe it was originally written for The Supremes! Pretty cool, great song and TTB and Charlie do a phenomenal rendition here along with Richard Turner from BBS on bass guitar!
I'm sooo in love with Tedeschi trucks band especially JJ the drummer he's got that SEXY SMILE!! Derek's a God on the guitar & Susan's voice is HEAVEN!! I LOVE BBS too!! #RedheadDeadhead
Charlie did a great job with these guys and they are all great. Just heard them in Indianapolis a week or so ago. what a wonderful show, Two great bands and probably as tight as any band I’ve ever heard
Good morning.... I follow you since the beginning... Congratulations for the excellent work, I'm from Colombia and I never listened something like that.
Definitely one of the best American bands together in decades! I just saw & visited with them this week in St. Louis. The band was incredible from the beginning, but just keeps getting better! I do miss the late Kofi Burbridge though....
Thanks for posting, these guys rock this song! Dude on bass looks like a badass White Walker. Holy hell, is that Alicia backing vocals. I saw/heard her when she was singing with Warren. She is awesome too.
I FEEL SOOO BLESSED THAT I HAVE FOUND THIS INCREDIBLE BAND, I recognize God’s Hands at work with this band🙏🙏🙏 I found them while I was suffering profound grief from too many losses one right after another, and I have listened daily and I am finally feeling like it’s ok to be living and my regrets have lessened that I wasn’t able to do more 🙏🙏🙏🥰🎶🥰 ThankS you guys for your incredibly HARD WORK & SACRIFICES and for sharing your talents, so many take theirs for granted
Just stumbled across some of your videos, solid gold! The horn section is an awesome blast from the past. Reminds me of The Tower of Power horn section. No substitute for great musicians. Vocals and harmonies spot on.
I've been following these very talented musicians when Dereck was a kid playing with Gregg Allman,Eric Clapton,Warren Haynes and so many more talented guitar stars, I feel in some way he has been connected with the spirit of Dwayne Allman who was my all time favourite slide guitar god. well now we have one of the Best Slide, Guitarist of our current time and that's Dereck Trucks and his lovely wife Susan Tedeschi who have formed there own band.
Totally agree! I am very happy to be the primary source for Derek's vintage guitars since 2000. Derek mentioned on Tuesday night, at The FOX in St. Louis, that he is now frequently using the '62 SG-Les Paul Standard that Susan bought for Derek as a present in August 2000, as I recall. "Already Free" was recorded to a great degree with the '61 SG-L.P. Standard that Derek bought from me in 10/08. Also getting heavy use in the studio, my old sunburst '60 ES-335 w/ dot inlays. The only other band that was exceptional in recent decades was the Eric Clapton Band with Derek Trucks, Doyle Bramhall II, Willie Weeks, & Steve Jordan!
Please don't do it!, Susan Derek, carry on. Lowell and I used to think that this would fade, one day I turned the radio on and heard this. Been a fan since. I'm sure Lowell is with Levon saying ah hell yeah.
I don’t care how down you are, that solo will lift you right up
To me, you got the the greatest guitar player of his generation/all time, partnered up with one of the absolute greatest singers with an astonishing voice, who have unbelievable musical chemistry…all wrapped up in a fantastic band. This is almost everything I want in music.
Could say exactly same about Levon/The Band IMO
You have 2 of the greatest guitar players & 2 of the finest lead vocals.
Agreed!
thanks for keeping "The Band" and other artists alive and relevant to a generation that might have missed the boat.
would be a shame to see all the beautiful works done by them and countless others to sit idle while the years flow by!
Agreed. With a Marvin Gaye cover, too.
With or without the slide Derek is the king of the 6 string!
This is what a band is! Not just drums and guitars. Thank god someone still knows how to make great music!
Phenomenal band.Man I miss Trucks and Haynes playing together..
Me too.
Tedeschi Trucks is the most powerful American Band today.
blackberry smoke is better
@@wolfdog3158 i love Blackberry smoke but no. You can't put one of these band first
1000% right!
Yes they are
Blackberry Smoke is the real deal! I think they may have the crown!
How can you not smile from ear to ear, bob your head uncontrollably and basically feel good from head to toe when listening to TTB!
I agree. The TTB makes really good music, and puts their heart and soul into every note they play. It is uplifting.
I couldn't have said it better myself!!
They are awesome but this version is not as good as the original and it is simply boring. Doesn't have anything interesting extra. There's no emotion there's no extra fun there's no irony or inside anything it's just the song.

@@donkansas8934 What?!!! Derek Trucks boring? If that don't light your fire, your wood's wet!!
one of the best bands performing today
I was there at Red Rocks (I am always at Red Rocks for TTB!). They came out smokin' and kept the energy going the entire night. They are the best collection of live musicians on the road or in the studio today. It's not even close. ❤🎶🌈
Did blackberry smoke open for them that night?

completely different style than the band. hard to say "not as good" as its just different.
Listen to Tedeschi Trucks original music. Covers are rarely as good as the originals. But when it comes to musicianship and instrumental prowess, Tedeschi Trucks stacks up, especially Derek. Among the greatest to ever pick up a guitar.
The Band's version was also a cover@@andyj845
Saw them last night in Atlanta at The Fox. Just fantastic musicianship. Blackberry Smoke opened and did a great set as well.
Randy McRae Don’t leave out Richard! He’s singing co-lead on that track and killing it
I was at the Friday show in Atlanta and it was unbelievable
Thank you Levon Helm & Mr. Marvin Gaye for giving us this song
John Donabie The late, great Marvin. Still a Marvin freak to this day.
@@lessehead Another great Holland-Dozier-Holland tune. I first hear Marvin do it. Then The Band. Love MG but was always partial to Levons version.
It's incredible to me that anyone prefers any cover of this song to the original. And I DON'T mean The Band. What can I say? Music is subjective.
Seems more an homage to those who walked before
Fantastic solo Derek In Loving Memory THE BAND
Actually, the Band only covered this song
@@matthewoboyle6010 Actually by William Stevenson, amazing tune.
TTB is top notch. Every time I see them in concert I am convinced they are my favorite live band. Such talent and execution.
TTB so polished! Charlie from BBS really added value to this one with his vocals and guitar lick. Great stuff.
A little Charlie adds alot of flavor!
Yeah, he's great.
@@joelm6631, smoked blackberry flavor 😁
Thank God we have the ability to share these amazing collaborations today!
Seems like there's a time during everyone of Trucks solos where I just find my self smiling/lol-ing. Not taking anything away from all these superb players but, man, every time.

Nutrition for the Soul Thanks to everyone on stage and God Bless Levon.
These two need to see together more often. Great harmony, along with the backup singers.
I think Levon would be proud!!
AMEN LOVE U LEVON
Marvin Gaye wrote this song.
@@lesheathjr4494 They're doing the Band's arrangement.

Faithful, fine rendition of my favorite song by The Band.
I was there and it was fantastic.
Why is this band never less than awesome???
Such a special song and I didn't exspect to hear my friend Charlie on vocals. Fantastic job up and down the stage.
I was at this show and get gooesbumps every time I watch it.
Best band on the planet, and it ain't even close....
It's amazing how much Charlie sounds like Levon Helm. This is almost as good as The Band's Last Waltz version. Just smokin'!
Charlie has such a great distinct voice. I love him
I'm sooo in love with Tedeschi trucks band especially JJ the drummer he's got that SEXY SMILE!! Derek's a God on the guitar & Susan's voice is HEAVEN!! I LOVE BBS too!! #RedheadDeadhead
Wish Levon could have been sitting in with them. What a rollicking time everyone would have had!!
R.I.P. Levon, Richard, Rick....be well, Garth.
Wow, great job! One of my favorites by The Band!
TTB is Without a doubt the Best touring band of the past decade.
I think it's wonderful that a band of this caliber plays covers. There are a lot of great songs from the past that deserve to be played and enjoyed.
Totally agree on both points
Flew across country to see this very performance at this incredible venue. Made my summer!!
I about lost it when they hit the intro of this. One of the best concerts you will ever see!
Susan smiling at the end as Derek is ripping is just outstanding. This is the best band in the world for the past several years now. Just my opinion
I think Levon, Rick and Robbie would approve.
RIP Gents....You were AWESOME!!
Tastefully done, strong vocals, sweet horns, and rockin' guitars.
Hot damn thats a tasty jam. Derek's outro solo is awe-inspiringly fantastic.
Tedeschi Trucks plays THE BAND. Perfect.
Susan just smilin’ away as hubby brings it home.
Best TTB show ever!
Charlie did a great job with these guys and they are all great. Just heard them in Indianapolis a week or so ago. what a wonderful show, Two great bands and probably as tight as any band I’ve ever heard
I love both of these bands. Yall are awesome. What a tribute......I love it
It doesn't get any better than this, ...
TTB feat. Blackberry Smoke = "a match made in heaven".
Just another great performance and one more blistering solo by Derek.
It just doesn't get any better than this! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!!!!!
Good morning.... I follow you since the beginning...

MY BIGGEST MISTAKE WAS LOVING YOU TOO MUCH!!!!
Kicker: “And letting you know”
Don’t go proclaiming your love, listen to Marvin
And letting you know
Derek never disappoints.
Always great music and amazing sounds- love Red Rocks and TTB - go Derek can’t be beat!
Can't wait to see more from this show!!
Frickin’ awesome!!
Just stumbled across some of your videos, solid gold! The horn section is an awesome blast from the past. Reminds me of The Tower of Power horn section. No substitute for great musicians. Vocals and harmonies spot on.
Spectacular!!!
Thanks sooo much, one of my favorites. Thanks also for practicing and being awesome.
Wow! It’s about time to see Charlie up there from BBS. !!
An awesome cover of a song by The Band. Cheers!

I just stumbled across a great version by the Who. . Daultry rocked. Big time Townsend jams!!
Very fine version, and the singer sounds very similar to Levon. Well done folks.
Rockin' cover! vocals on point and everything else hot damn 🎵✨🎵

Muantap poll Wuasem ... Awesome
There is not a better live band touring out there. Anywhere in the world. Waiting for that SE Asian tour and a gig in Bangkok Thailand.
Totally agree!

I was there choking on all the ganja smoke wafting up from the crowd.
Was that it at 3:26? Or was that the fog rolling in?
What a tune
I saw SRV live,6 months b-4stupid hellcopter crash, nothing has blown me away, since T.TBand!!!!!!!
I'm going to see them in 4 days
This is so fucking good, everybody in that stage are LEGENDS
Impressive. Funk into a strong headwind.
Banda simplesmente fodástica!
Please don't do it!, Susan Derek, carry on. Lowell and I used to think that this would fade, one day I turned the radio on and heard this. Been a fan since. I'm sure Lowell is with Levon saying ah hell yeah.
Soul Music to be celebrated.
wonderful
❤❤❤
Still always stunned by how good Dereck in w/o a slide...and in Open E too!
You did it.
Gotta give it more to this song.
The Sound person did the best job i have hear.
Great! Very close to the Band's version!
It's better !!
Whoa! Gabe Dixon is playing with the band now? Very cool. The guy is a great musician, great singer and great songwriter. 👏👏👏👏👏
Eggcellent!
so super !!!
Stimmt
Stuff like this could end all war...if only the right people sat down together and witnessed it...
TTB is the best band around!!
Badass
