The more performances of his I see, the more I think he is an actual contender for greatest blues guitarist of all time. Incredible.
I agree
Right there next to brother Duane! ✌🏼
And you can hear his interest in Hindustani classical music played on the sarod. The beginning here is just like an Indian classical alap. Of course you can look up my refs if interested. Love his musical sensibility so much!
Greatest MODERN blues guitarist. He has nothing on Skydog, imo. Don't get me wrong. I love me some DT. But Duane was on a whole OTHER LEVEL.
@@blazer6248 When Gregg Allman says that Derek Trucks is "who Duane would have became and then some" I would say that Derek is VERY much on Duane's level.
BB King once said that Derek Trucks was "the greatest he has ever heard" and BB heard plenty of Duane.
No need to argue who is on who's level.....just listen to the music play :)
The most emotive electric guitarist playing today. Has both a tenderness and strength to his playing that is unmatched in any musical genre today. A gift to us all!
Derek gets it. Like all great musicians, you pick up the music where the masters left it and take it where it has never been before with a respectful tip of the hat and you put you stamp on it. Derek is the new master.
The intro of this is so very influenced by his study of Indian classical music.
Heard it right away
I was thinking exactly that. Sounds almost like he's playing a sitar
Ladies and gentlemen... this is Derek Trucks... he plays guitar ... he also makes your soul stir and serene at the same time.
Just saw them in concert at Red Rocks this summer. Had the same reaction. Susan is amazing but had a way deeper appreciation for the whole band, Mike specifically.
For me, the greatest musician is the one that moves my emotions the most. Derek is the one that does it every time!
I just discovered derek trucks- !!! I was born in 65. - how the hell did i miss this guitarist ! Like the singer too- can we please get rid of todays contest shows, and put this kind of talent on television..pleease. !
I have loved great guitar for many years. At 81 years, they don't come any better than Derek Trucks.
The funny thing is he doesn't look anywhere near 81! (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)
Well said.kudos..
I think Derek Trucks is one of the greatest, most sensitive interpreters of the guitar EVER! Love everything about how he plays.
All that feeling and no fucking weird faces, he doesn't even move and has got more soul than all those Guitar Center former winners
thanks,those faces them guys Make are just crazy.
He's brilliant - who needs weird faces, image, stage-presence, charisma
You hit it right on the head, eureka, I found the answer that boy got soul. I am going to steal that soul phrase and use it to describe Derek Trucks!
I agree, it's nice to see. That being said, if you play blues guitar you'll know how natural and unconscious it is to make some of those faces.
skydog is smilin'...
I love Derek, but its also Mike's voice that is a huge reason why this music speaks to me so much.
Mike who? Why is his full name?
Derek is simply one of the finest guitar players alive. So much heart in every note... you can't teach that - you either have it or you don't..
Could not agree with you more...He defines perfection.
Amen
Actually you grow up playing the blues with a slide since you’re 4 years old then go off and learn Indian classical music and rhythm and you’ll get close
Derek is a slide god
lastdaysguitar, I was just answering a reply about Bonomasa , don't care about spelling his name, I wish I could have come up with your words. You are so true , Live Long & Rock On...
only 70k views. Brutal... more people need to experience this. This is how you make a guitar sing. Whole band is just perfect on this one.
Derek paying tribute,to Duane paying tribute to the great KING CURTIS. This will always be my favorite part of the Fillmore album.
always wished there was a full Duane version of this song like this..
unfortunately this is not on the fillmore recordings thus on the A&R Studios session in medley with you dont love me
6 legends. The 5 musicians, and the only fan standing for that ovation at the end
Derek is a all arond all facet Iconic guitar phenomenon. I think Duane Allman sprinkled some of his guitar magic down on this kid.He is very gifted.
This is just God given talent so grateful I got the 💜 privilege of living during his time and I'm currently 62 years old
He plays like it is water pouring out of the chalice.
Tim McCarthy How many people in the world haven't heard this? Are we fuckin' lucky?!!
tootz1950 Amen, friend. Somwhere, Jimi and Stevie Ray are smiling as they listen to this creative genius. Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is the only other person I've heard that is even close to this artistry.
Hey Tim! FYI, Fateh Ali Khan was the master and Trucks has admitted to it so get your estimates right.
A fine wine!
Only a master would tip his hat to another master by playing this song at this function giving all there inspiration.
He is most certainly the most prolific and probably the best slide player on the planet...
King Curtis would be proud.
This maybe one of the best live performances ever!! Amazing how locked in Derek is!
Everyone sings praises of his slide technique, while I'm over here in awe of his right hand technique. He's like Knopfler in terms of fingerpicking precision.
The One Yup,
I heard him say in an interview that he does not really know exactly what goes on with his right hand.
I’ve always said that. He strums like no one I’ve ever seen. I’m guessing cause he started so young his hands were too small so he developed a style his hands could do ☺️
Its almost magic. And under appreciated, although not by other top musicians.
His technique reminds me more of Chris Rea . Knopfler arranged his fingers a little differently on the strings.
Derek is shy, he isn't 'full of himself', rarely faces the audience. The 1st time I saw him play he wasn't even old enough to get into the club where he was playing! Brilliant! Thanks for posting!
yes! This dude is humble! you can just hear it in the music! The best success stems from humility!
Bingo! First time I saw him was right after he was formally introduced as a member of the ABB and I stood about 20' from the stage and could barely breathe - I was more or less turned into a pillar of salt, watching him play. I was simply not prepared for the perfection and nuance and the focus of the power that was pouring out of his fingers. When his solo ended and I could move again, I asked one of the tapers "Who was that kid?" And he said "That's Derek. He looks young, but he's been playing that stuff for a LONG LONG time."
Hotlanta!
He watches other musicians instead of the crowd. He doesn't seem to see himself as the star. And once in a while while onstage with his wife you can see the love and respect in his face.
As a man this caused awe and a silent joy filled tear.
so true.
This is what they play in the waiting room in heaven.
Child prodigy and nephew of the Allman's. He makes that guitar do things I've never seen or heard!
He is the nephew of Allman Brothers Band drummer Butch Trucks.
Nepheew of Butch Trucks, not the Allman Bros
I love the moment when he's all fire and lightning and you think, "Wait. How did we get here? A moment ago it was all quiet and thoughtful. How in the holy hell did he do that?" Amazing.
You can tell the bass player is in absolute heaven playing with Derek. Awesome!
He plays with such purity in every note and color and is able to express the widest range possible of every note than anyone I've ever seen and heard in my entire music life. It's so pure it's as if God just placed this kid on this planet as a beautiful gift for us to experience...maybe he felt bad taking Vaughn, Garcia, Dimebag Darrell, Becker, Hendrix, JJ Cale
He is the best player now and has been for some time. Thanks for all the beautiful music.
Brought tears to my eyes........ Long live Duane and King Curtis, two beautiful cats
...
I’m so blessed to be living to witness what people will be talking about in 50 years.
Derek Truck’s musical expression is a blessing. He invokes such good emotions, plays guitar passages like a gospel singer, and brings in the rock, indian, blues, jazz. Everyday i heard Derek playing guitar is a good day.
So sweet.. Love seeing my old friend Oteil Burbridge playing w Derek. Perfect match.
Just watch his emotions as he plays. Stoic, solid, calm - Derek is a wonderful bluesman and a terrific bandleader.He just blows me away with his every performance.
He uses no pickup on stage either. He "plays the room he's in" very rare!!!
Very well said, hats off. ...Blues lover from Macedonia
@@davide2586 I was confused for a second as a pickup is an integral part of an electric guitar and the man plays electric guitar, but I think you meant a "pick" and that's right, he's all fingers.
Back in the poor old days it was three PB and Js
I wish Derek does an entire raaga album someday. Such a beautiful intro.
Would literally kill for a trucks raga album.
Or even just some RUclips vids of him jamming in his room i dont care lol.
yeah that would be amazing
Fuck yeah, like ry cooder
@@benstolz6503 he's in a different stage in his career. it's not a crime.
@@nducati agreed. The guitar serves the songs. And the songs and performances on Signs is right on for these times. A lot of us miss what came before, and we all miss Kofi, but thank God for the TTB the way they are right now.
Sometimes it's not always about the notes...sometimes it's about the spaces in between the notes...
u are rt on, the silent note is the best note
AMEN !
ALWAYS ......THE SPACES, BETWEEN.
Sometimes ???
It's always about the space between the notes . Why play 40 when you can say it with 4 or 5 ??
that david gilmour shit
Derek's guitar is phenomenal and Mike's vocals are phenomenal. This is so soothing.
so much to learn from like 30 seconds of watching him fret... its absurd how good he is with or without slide
Didn't start that way. I saw back when his Crutch was the Slide. That version of him Has now gone and been eradicated.
The guitar flows through him; like SRV. No disconnect.
Derek carries on the musical tradition of his Uncle Butchy and his 2 band mates of that generation. I dare say Derek does it just, if not better, than his forefathers! Lets just say my heart soars as high.
I literally listen to this intro on repeat all day long to this day.
Jesus H Christ, this guy got the blues.
The 11 people who disliked this are just jerks. That man is achieving perfection.
Derek Trucks moves you like no one else, when you mentor under Betts, Warren haynes, Gregg allman, his dad, drummer butch trucks, this is the result, his own sound, simply the best!
I love how he often plays soft at the climax of a phrase. It like when someone is speaking in a normal tone and then just when you think they are going to yell or shout to make their point...they whisper and the words and moment are branded in your memory forever. I've got to see him live.
You'll cry. I promise. Get as close as you can.
This hurts my heart in the best way possible.
I still watch this and never get tired of it. A true musical genius.
Derek is the best slide guitar player since Duane, period!
Amen. ¡😎¡
Duane’s pretty bad ass alright. Can’t really compare.
Derek's even another level higher than that.
It is rumored that Derek absorbs the powers of whoever signs his guitar.
But one of the top ones that he absorbed power from never got a chance to sign his guitar... :(
No he didn't Rick Bray, but he definitely shines down on Derek.
i think he is Duane Allman re-incarnated!
A comic book supervillain with a “Kryptonite” evil plan: He runs in and escape notice from Derek’s roadie and go signhis guitar when no one is looking. Now Derek absorbs all his crappy guitar playing power. Can’t play guitar anymore. :3 Mwahahahahaha!
That's why I refused to sign it when he asked me.
Dear God, he's monstrously good...
According to an article on Buddy Guy in a recent edition of the New Yorker "There are still some extraordinary musicians around who play and sing the blues with the sort of richness Guy admires". Derek Trucks is one of those listed. He certainly deserves that accolade.
Such an incredible performance. The way he builds that solo is simply incredible. Listening to this is like riding the wind.
Intense like the hell. Just marvelous
I still go back and watch this video all the time, never ceases to amaze me and put me in a state of comfort
That singer is just AMAZing. i love his voice.
Mike Mattison :)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Mattison
And a great songwriter too. He wrote Midnight in Manhattan.
F Tyler Midnight in Harlem
Bought first slide yesterday, derek is even cooler now
I am ashamed to say that this year is the first year i've been listening to derek trucks. But then again it is a treat being exposed to so many good songs in only a few months.
Every time I watch a new (to me) Derek Trucks video it becomes my favorite. I think it's going to be awhile before this one is bested.
Love love love Derek! Been listening to this song for years!
There just aren't words!!!!! What a gift.
The smoothest there ever has and ever will be. The undisputed Derek Trucks.
Unrivaled in his slide technique and just so amazing to listen to. Anyone that plays guitar knows he is on a dimension that I don’t think better or best can even describe it. It’s where the written word is inadequate to describe the feel and mood and each performance has new innovation.
It never grows stagnant always pushing the envelope to communicate in music at a stratospheric level .
Derek is SIMPLY AMAZING!!! R.I.P. KING CURTIS 🎺
Right on with the deep background right there. That's another whole tragic story...
On occasion I've seen comments from folk talking down Mike's vocals - never understood that. He has a sweet, sweet voice and can really wrap it around a tune.
Really? He's one of my favorite living vocalists!
His vocal range is unbelievable
the sound he makes from 1:30 - 1:36 is probably one of the most beautiful sounds i have ever heard and will ever hear
Listening to this just helped me ascend to the stars in my mind✌️
Derek is the best blues guitarist in the world at the moment in my opinion.
He has the most amazing touch and his tone is on a par with Peter Green.
1:44 The lead up to that specific lick genuinely moved me
I love this!! Hope all my FB friends get a blast from this Trucks & Co. Interpretation!!!
There's not many performers that can make you feel the way derek does this is pure emotion king Curtis would be proud. This band is the best band out there for me I've not listen to chart music for 2 years. So glad I found the blues .
a master class in building a solo.
One of the greatest most soulful guitarists of our time
In a world engulfed in a sea of image first talent last fraudulent performers out there Derek trucks is a beacon of light for those searching for the real thing
Nothing short of wonderful!
Derek is Genius!
I wonder what it's like to be able to play like this. incredible
Perfection, all of them. Simply amazing.
He makes me cry! With joy...
Very nice guitarist ❤️
His playin' just touches the soul, what masterful interpretation.
This guy is the real deal.
Absolutely ridiculous
He's beyond the real deal, he IS the deal!
Derek Trucks lives up to all expectations.
He's a genius. Been listening to him since he was in the Allmans twenty years ago... I don't know how or WHERE he pulls some of those notes and runs. Truly brilliant. God bless you Derek. Namaste bro.
And Mattison's vocals are amazing, love it when he steps up to the mic
Darryl Campbell Thanks for that - I was wondering why nobody was giving him his due. What a vocalist!!! (Well, to be honest - Derek does kinda steal the show!)
Now THAT is a lead singer! Match that with Derek's awesome guitar playing and the other members and you have...heaven!
Not only is Derek the amazing Blues-Rock-Anything guitarist, he is the master of slide, to pocket to hand without missing a note. Unless I've missed something.
The way he just gets the slide and then proceeds to lay it down... fucking legend
DEREK IS A BEST PLAYER USING WITH TALENT BOOTTLENECK....THANKS GUY RESPECT. JACKYFAN 👍
that's one groove drummer! really really beatiful, derek is a jewel in music, we're lucky to have him amoung us!
RIP Kofi Burbidge. (Keyboardist and flautist)
He plays the same if he is in front of a crowd of thousands.......or all by himself . ....Fascinating Awesomeness !
Derek sweetness--Real American Music still Lives ---killing it!
The intro is from Sahib Teri Bandi/Maki Madni on DTB Songlines album. Soul Serenade is by King Curtis and has vocals once sung by Aretha Franklin.
Fabulous! Another gem gleaned from the pages of You Tube. Thanks for sharing this....
GREAT ! This guy can play !
Living legend.
Frission: Frisson (French for 'shiver') is a sensation somewhat like shivering, usually caused by stimuli. It is typically expressed as an overwhelming emotional response combined with piloerection (goosebumps). Stimuli that produce a response are specific to the individual.
Frisson is of short duration, usually no more than 4-5 seconds, usually pleasurable.[1] Typical stimuli include loud passages of music and passages that violate some level of musical expectation
+Gary Cain
I wanted to comment on this video, but I can't expand on Gary's post.
Says it all!
Well said Gary
I'm using the hell out of this term..
Derek Trucks is a Badass....
Derek IS the best guitar
Although a very sweet badass.
That is the First Time, I Ever Heard Anything Like That. New as paint to me. Groovy funk, tune wrapped in the blues.
I don't know how to say it any better than I LOVE Derek Trucks, that tone is Godly!
