I'm baffled, how on earth does he create such a strong, punchy tone picking like that with his fingers?! I think he's actually better than Duane, he's had many more years to perfect his art. Incredible player, the best musician in todays blues/rock i think...
lol dont say hes better than duane, cuz he wouldnt exist had it not been for duane, i agree hes taken the slide to a new level but as an artist and guitarist i wouldnt even say whos better, duane is the pioneer and derek is a prodigy
@bimwopbarn Sorry how exactly would he not exist if it wasn't for duane that is seriously SERIOUSLY under selling derek as a musician and a person............saying that somehow duane is the well he sprang from and nobody else would have influenced him to play...... no he isnt...... he is an influence but he would have found the slide or music with out duane ever have existing! DEREK is exceptional but no one man is responsible for his playing other then HIM!!!!
@Strange0ne its not underselling him, its the nature of how music evolves. The argument is unsolvable anyway because its more of a question on world view and philosophy. I say derek would not exist if it werent for duane, look at the facts; duane started the allman brothers. the drummer in the band, butch, is derek's uncle. Derek was influenced by duane to pick up a slide and duane paved the way for slide playing. Derek first toured with Allman bros. its hard to see a derek trucks without duane
@Strange0ne but at the same time i take nothing away from derek, the same way i take nothing away from any great artist who makes progress in their field even though they did not invent it or pioneer it. in this case its slide guitar, duane was just the first to put in on the map in the way he did, derek has taken great strides and is an original, very creative, and an amazing musician. but its naive to say he would have picked the slide and become the same musician he is today without duane
You are watching the two greatest living electric guitar players, and the two greatest of all-time behind some dudes named Hendrix and Allman.
