Album Review

Derek Trucks began building his own legacy at the age of 12, playing scorching slide guitar that prompted many to hypothesize that he was the reincarnation of Duane Allman in the flesh. The nephew of Allman Brothers Band drummer Butch Trucks, Derek was virtually born into a show business family, but don't think for a minute that he doesn't create his own opportunity. Backed by a skin-tight rhythm section and complimented by a top-notch organist, the youthful guitarist blazes through new arrangements of jazz and blues classics. He turns the trumpet wizardry of Miles Davis into slide-guitar magic, and his readings of a couple of Coltrane tunes pack a terrific punch. The band also contribute several of their own compositions, paving the way for a bright future as a group of tight-knit, talented musicians. A flawless recording. ~ Michael B. Smith, Rovi

Customer Reviews

King of slide...

This album kills, just like all the others. I was fortunate enough to meet Derek backstage at one of the recent shows with Clapton (one of the most approachable/humble rock stars you will ever meet). He absolutely overshadowed Eric with his guitar prowess....no question, he is the best slide player you will ever hear. Derek Trucks is a living legend not even at his peak, he will blow your mind and leave you standing numb, speechless, and in awe (steals your face with ease!)...listen to everything you can that has Derek involved. There isn't a word to describe how incredible his playing is...this IS the reincarnation of Duane's playing...and then some!

jammin at its best

this is an excellent album and a great mix of rock improvisation, jazz, almost fusion at its best. This is a pleasure to listen to and I can only recommend this recording. It is unfortunate that the band doesn't tour more across the US.

Derek possibly the best guitarist ever!!!

This album along with all of his other stuff is quite possibly some of the best guitar in the world today...Derek plays rythmic as well as slide guitar and is top notch in accompaning the other members of this band....This album is a must for all Trucks fans!!!
