  • The beginning slide dual or whatever you wanna call it, made me cry. Powerful shit right there.

  • I wept like a baby the first time I heard this. I'm still a man.

  • Perfect! I like when someone plays the entire song. I hope one day commercial TV could show this to the public who thinks many shit are music.

  • I've seen ABB live 3 times, watching Warren and Derek trading guitar solos never gets old. 

  • DEREK TRUCKS IS TRULY LIMITLESS I MUST SEE HIM LIVE BEFORE I DIE

  • This is it!

  • This should be the most-watched video on the youtube

  • "That felt pretty good" No shit. Wouldn't it be nice to pull something like this off and just walk away saying "that felt pretty good."?

    Man, that's some serious talent and skill.

  • guitaretab(.)com /w/warren-haynes/156862 (.) html

  • Wrong..... Warren Haynes is the best.

    

  • @seancloonan22

    Warren is better at singing, Derek is better at playing. :-)

  • @ezekielwahwah nooooot ! maybe derek has better slide playing but warren is the better musician and guitarist overall !

  • @thefourhorseman Hahaha. Are you guys tone deaf? Warren is great but nobody holds a candle to Derek Trucks. The man started touring with the Allman Brothers Band at 13. Thats saying something.

  • @MrFuckyouintheneck Actually, though he jammed with them a few times in 1992 (at 13), he joined ABB in 1999 @ 20. No less impressive of course, just setting the timeline straight...

  • @DarkeningSkies1 Thanks man. Definitley still impressive. Keep slidin'!

  • I want to 'like' this post all day long!

  • omg...is this playing human?

  • love this jam.... sent it to some old friends of mine...they love it mo...peace

  • Derek got all excited at about 5:25 and moved his eyebrows.

  • Derek likes to color outside the lines if anyone gets that.

  • huh?

  • This is still my favorite.

  • Derek's playing in standard tuning here.

  • @1Wes1 no...Warren is but Derek is in open D. That is how the song was written/recorded.

  • @guitarrebel22

    Warren is in Drop D (DADGbd)

  • @FraJa1980 Isn't that "D modal" when you drop both D's, and "drop D" when you just drop the top?

  • @NateWTaylor Good eye, i ment DADGbE. Messing around with a lot of open tunnings makes you f*ck up evry now and then, thanks for pointing it out ;)

    Yes D modal or Open G add9 with the A being the 9th in the key of G, cool tunning too btw. Good for a lot of Robert johnson stuff.

  • what is the tuning???

  • @gibsonsg96 I think that Derek have Open E, like he usually use. :)

  • @gibsonsg96 Its in open D which is DADF#AD

  • Shit yeah

  • That's just awesome. I think the Allman brothers did this song as well.

  • love watchin them both at wanee!

  • @mrbigpapac63 About six months til we hit the woods!

  • Got the tuning (open D) does anyone know what chords Warren plays during the verse? I can't figure it out.

  • Does anybody know whose original song this is?

    trying find out the tuning.

  • This is sweet. So often, live recordings posted do not do guitar performance justice. Here, these fellows are taring it up in the green room and it sounds great! Derek's studio work is kills too!

  • @scignelzi Everything Warren touches turns to gold. I like Derek too but they don't get better than Warren in my opinion.

  • @t0ej0b I agree my friend. Warren Haynes is outstanding! One of the finest song writers around also.

  • @kj677 Amen, Derek is a gift to my generation most don't understand but Warren is a god.

  • @t0ej0b

    Warren is better at singing, Derek is better at playing. :-)

  • @ezekielwahwah Warren gets his playing in, look around sometime.

  • 7 minutes of goosebumps .. and amazing talent.

  • Derek Trucks is the new generation of the old rock slide guitarists thank god theres one of them!

  • Comment removed

  • @TradeHecht derek always brings his A game but if you really want to see theses guys at there peak you need to catch a panic show when derek and warren goes out with a battle with jimmy herring its most intense thing you will ever wittness

  • i would say derek is the best slide player alive right now by a fucking long shot! but you gotta pay your respect to ole duane and i think derek would also say since he was his influnce and also b.b king that hes not better then them but just between us i think he may be, and warren just is one of the best all around players the only thing that this picture is missing is jimmy herring with an acoustic haha that would be unreal...

  • Duane Allman was better then both these guys. But I bet they'd be the first to say that. Saw Warren in Pitt just a few nights ago, he is amazing dude is one of best musicians alive. Derek is awesome to

  • @TradeHecht I was at the show in Pittsburgh. I will pre-face my comments by this: I saw Warren for the first time at Beacon Theatre 2011 (ABB run in NYC).. and I thought he was much better in NYC. I thought he deferred quite a bit to the saxophonist and organist. He was on another planet when he had Derek standing next to him on stage and pushing him. To see those two battle out the solo's is incredible. If you haven't seen it, you haven't seen Warren at his peak.

  • @Bodomchld I agree 100% sometimes I wish he'd just send everyone off the stage grab an acoustic guitar and a slide and go! Seen him at Bonnaroo twice and I am pretty sure he brings his A game there.

  • Really this is amazing, Derek and Warren are most probably the best guitarists around today.

  • Ive followed the ABB since well lets just say forever,these guys came from there but have their own style rightly so.Derek is no.1 in my book,but never would i rate Warren a no.2.Both deserve a place in music history

  • Who disliked this!! Are they nuts!! Anyway, I miss Duane too but why is it that everyone who talks greatest slide players forgets Johnny Winter!! Live version of Highway 61 Revisited.... I rest my case. Not one better than the other... Just giving props where they are due. Anywho, these guys are the future and it looks bright. Great video post!!!

  • @kj677 And there is always Mr. Cooder and the unknown Ellen McIlwain

  • @dnteatylwsno9 Absolutely! Cooder has had relative commercial success, but I suggest checking out McIlwain to anyone who digs this clip and the style of blues being laid down. Man, great examples!

  • @kj677 Does anybody GET IT this was done in the basement of the Beacon Theatre.

    No soundboard or amps just raw music at its best.Forget Johnny Winter he couldnt hold a candle to either Warren or Derek on slide .Warren is by far the hardest working musician out there today.And lets not forget he's has a helluva voice. Plays with 4 bands and is asked to guest at almost everyones shows. BTW DEREK IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST SLIDE BAR NONE n that includes Sonny landreth

  • @ABBFANFUKN4LIFE I think you are missing the point my man! These are the greatest players on the planet, but there are many others who join them there. Saying Johnny Winter doesn't hold a candle to them is strange as he is a hero to both of these gentleman. Yes, they have taken the blues to a new level and I love it, but they started somewhere. It's like saying Eric Clapton can't come close to touching Joe Bonamassa! Eric is his hero! I for one am glad we have all these guys keepin it alive!

  • @ABBFANFUKN4LIFE There isn't one better than the other, just individuality. Appreciate them all brother because, as we learned recently with the death of Gary Moore, their greatness and joy from their music can be taken at any time. Peace.

  • @kj677 It's only my opinion but but Winter dilutes his music with shit vocals.

  • @t0ej0b Most of the guitar slingers from the sixties (other than the Blues greats) were not strong vocally (ie. Hendrix, Alvin Lee, etc). It was the total package that made them memorable and great. But you have a point brother, compared to Warren Haynes everyone has shit vocals!! Haha Peace!

  • @kj677 Lowell George was a good slide player too!

  • Thats one tasty jam.

  • @BuckleysAngel26 Spiced up with heart extract and a few candied pieces of soul.

  • Best song ever, gives me chills..

  • well not only is the guitar great but Warrens voice cuts

  • is this a cover? if so who did the original?

  • @hector2010ification This is Warren's tune. It first appears on the 2003 ABB album "Hittin' the Note" - it's a great album and the only Studio ABB Album with Derek and Warren as guitarist for the band.

  • Music is an expression, and I get that. But you really would have to be a douche of life to dislike this. It's unprompted magic. Never have two acoustics filled the air with electric.

  • Hate to say it but Warren reminds me of Mikee off OCC LOL!

  • Comment removed

  • Oh, here it is alright...

  • I though why the Hell does this have 900.000 views ?

    After 1 Minute i knew Why

    Some of the Best Old School Blues i ve ever heard in my Life ( i mean the whole 7 Minutes )

    Man i need some CD s by Derek Trucks

  • Duane has reincarnated himself thru Derek....he's even growing the beard now just like Duane....

  • The best example of bottleneck blues the generation has ever seen. Absolute perfection. Thank you Derek, Warren, and the guy who posted this. THANK YOU!!!

  • If this doesn't git in yer soul then you must be dead already

  • This is some slap yo' momma shit..

  • what the hell is everyone taking about it!! this is good music!!!!!!! YOU try it~~~~~

  • Who are these two nerds that look like they live in their parents' basement...wait...my face just melted

  • @Irish1029 seriously???

  • @hoops9billion .... seriously

  • Derek : "might as well hit the whole thing" lol

  • Responding to crowesfan. Check out Sonny Landreth Zydeco Shuffle. Look at his other stuff too. Clapton introduced him on stage at the Crossroads Guitar Festival as 'my hero, Sonny Landreth' and Mark Knopfler said he was probably the best live guitarist in the world today. Personally, I love it all! : )

  • You can't judge guitarists from different styles on the same playing field. Buckethead: super shredding. Warren Haynes/Derek Trucks: Blues. Two completely seperate genres of music that require different levels of skill for each. On that note, Buckethead is no doubt a thrilling guitarist. However Warren and Derek are also incredible. I have seen them both about 4-5 times with the Allman Brothers. Couldn't say better things about their playing. Derek's stage presence is statuesque to say the least

  • @nbrown9010 What does his stage presence count for? He plays the tastiest riffs I have ever heard - you don't need eyes to know how great he is

  • @RobBrooksMusic I didn't say it bothered me any, I was just stating the fact. Yes, he is great!

  • Dereck Trucks is a wonderful player..., but I think that Lowell George was the most soulful slide guitar player ever

  • this is just fuckin unbelievably beautiful!!!

  • There`s thousands of great musicians out there who you`ll never hear. My own personal choices of great guitarists all have an attribute that , in the beginning, was the whole purpose of playing.... I can feel what they play, no matter how fast or technical, it`s all about relaying emotion. You newbies out there keep that in mind when your praising people like buckethead or some of those lightnin fast players. Fast doesn`t mean a thing, fat does.

  • Well guys when you start the "who`s best" thing there`s never a resolution. That`s like trying to say any person is the "best" guitarist ever. He or she may be great but at what? which style? which era? etc.etc. Yes Derek is ONE of the best slide guitarist ever but Warren has won best slide guitarist a few times in his life. Yes todays music is crap for the most part which is controlled by teenie boppers because the parents are too broke to buy CD`s or tickets. The music industry is a racket

  • @guitars777actually the best guitarist one is easy its buckethead no proffesional will disagree big b is plays things that no other human can he may not be able to play the way he used to but he has taken the instrument the beyond anyone and does it with a mask and kfc bucket on his head

  • this is awesome, but there is no way that Derek is the best slide player...Duane Allman, Ry Cooder, Fred McDowell, Elmore James...just to name a few

  • NOTHING BETTER THAN THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • tunning?

    

  • @TermsOfService22 I believe it's open G, but i am not sure...

  • @eduf93 ok thank man.

  • this is pure talent

  • @survivinavan I was speaking of the 37 people who "disliked" this video. It's a joke at their expense. Further, I submit that sociopaths don't make true friends in any medium.

  • Thanks so much for sharing this!

  • Very well might be the greatest bit of music caught on film....

  • 37 people have no friends ..bloody sociopaths.

  • @Seannixon36 maybe they make friends without a glowing screen!

  • This is seriously some of the best music i've ever heard. Period.

  • just awesome!!

  • Who missed the like button?!

  • I love this stuff! Can't get enough! Question: a couple of months ago I watched Warren and Derek in the same setting on youtube play "Mean Old World (blues)" (honoring Duane & Eric on Duane Allman's Greatest Hits Vol or II ?), now I can't find it - does anyone know how/where it is???? Appreciate any help, thanks!

  • Comment removed

  • anyone know who wrote this song?

  • Comment removed

  • what the key are they plaing in ? sorry

  • what the key are they opling in ?

  • Great video, thanks for posting. No matter who your favorite artist is, it must be awesome to be in their living room while they are just playing around like this.

  • it's too bad the radio is dominated with shit these days. this is fucking real music. derek trucks is the best slide guitar player ever, period.

  • @crowesfan1332

    I agree on everything except I won't put him over Duane Allman: Duane died at 24, man. What would he have been at 30???

  • @ezekielwahwah respect to duane he laid the foundation for derek, but i think derek takes slide to another level. i think we can agree duane would be proud

  • @ezekielwahwah I have to think of it like this, Derek was born just a few years after Duane. Warren and Gregg touched on it a bit in a Guitar World interview, Greg saying "I don't know if I believe in reincarnation, but if you listen to Duane, and where he was when he passed away, and you listen to Derek when he joined the band, it's almost like a continuation." So, we won't ever know what Duane was capable of, except in the shadow and guise of Derek, he's the closest we'll ever get.

  • @ezekielwahwah i'm going to have to disagree and even say he's better than duane. you can't pull the "what would have been" card because no one will ever know. you gotta take what they gave when they were here, and derek has surpassed duane. derek is the greatest slide player ever.

  • @ezekielwahwah At the time of his death he had only been playing slide guitar for 3 years! He would have been a god.

  • @MrFuckyouintheneck They are both still alive brother!

  • @survivinivan Oh I know these guys are, I was talkin bout Duane bro, haha.

  • @ezekielwahwah There wouldn't be a Derek Trucks if there never was a Duane Allman...period.

  • Comment removed

  • @ezekielwahwah Skydog is the master

  • @ezekielwahwah ever thinking about bieng a lawyer? i think you just won your first case!

  • @ezekielwahwah 24?? fuck man, I would seriously have said he was about 45, wow that's what showbiz does for you i guess? thanks for telling me though.

  • @crowesfan1332 Couldn't agree more about Duane Allman. If you haven't listened to "Live at Fillmore East.." Listen to the first 3 songs on Disc #1.. And the long jams on Disc #2 (Whipping Post, Mountain Jam). Your spine will be numb from Duane's pure genious.

  • @Bodomchld Live at the fillmore is the blueprint for which all musical genius is based no doubt. One thing I don't understand... what are these disc's you speak of? Vinyl... brother ...Vinyl. peace to all

  • @crowesfan1332 Warren aint no slouch with the slide himself. I've seen him with Gvmt Mule and The WHB several times. Up close and personal. Derek 'is' amazing though.

  • @crowesfan1332 thank u for the support

  • @crowesfan1332 he's the realness that's for sure, but better than duane?! blasphemy.

  • @crowesfan1332 well if you like slide check out bluesman Roy Rogers he is brilliant aswell

  • @crowesfan1332 him and ry cooder

  • Freaking awesome.

  • Amazes me how Trucks plays with no pic.....maybe normal to most....but it blows me away......Warren sings his soul out.....!!!

  • @pistolpaul21 Hm. Well for me, I have to use a pick to get a stronger sound out of my resonator which has heavy gauge strings, but with normal acoustic guitars or electrics I think there is no difference

  • @pistolpaul21 some of the best slide players use there fingers youve got much more versatility with your fingers so much more you can do. the only exception roy rogers uses his fingers and a flat pick and that guy blows your fuckin mind.

  • Holy Crap how come I've never heard this before today.

    Wow!!!!!

  • Stellar!! 

  • wow you hear the drummer talkin a little shit at the begining doin that thing where he answers questions that are not a dderssed to him yeah no I think ill go ...............

  • @dellinger1000 ?

    i didnt hear him talking shit but youre right he sure did leave in a hurry, maybe he had a hot date? or maybe hes tired of his nephew stealing all the thunder at such a young age. haha.

    poor butch he never gets the respect he deserves, a loyal man all the way through and through and a great addition to the ABB too..

  • @caveman1968 well iv watched this 100s off times I think it has something to do with dereks father he seems disrespected by them playin this or offended by the fact that warren is goating derek into playin this song theres alot more to this vid than just the music you can see the broken relationship between the band members

  • the 2 best guitar players on the planet!

  • @Laf1960 Got that right. I don't even think there's competition.

  • Derek trucks has a really long thumb.....like its huge.

  • Yea oggi3 drop d is the correct tuning. It amazes me how Warren can wear a ring finger slide and still make all the chords not playing in an open tuning. Esspecially in the early ninties when he playing all duanes parts before dickey left.

  • Btw Trucks is playing in Open D ( D A D F# A D) rather than his usual open E. Warren, as always is playing in standard.

  • verses are D F G

    Chorus is. Am C G

  • any one with a better ear than mine know what tuning they are in?

  • @akxeman Warren is in drop D- low to high( DADGBE), and Derek is in open D tuning low to high (DADF#AD).

  • @oggi3 Thanks! I knew Derek was in open D, but the tuning Warren was in was throwing me. Figures it would be something as simple as drop D standard!

  • what guitar is trucks using?

  • . . . these guys are outstanding musician - superior ! ! !

  • allman brothers band

  • who is this song by?

  • Just incredible.

  • That was sweet!

  • Who in hell dislikes this?? seriously. it puzzles my mind.

  • This is clearly an open tuning, but I wonder in what key?

  • @sigilopator Open C

  • Look at the Coricidine bottles, the Duane Allmane style od slide playing!!! Man that was great!!!

  • i see 34 friends of the rap music visited here......

  • I love these guys!!! They are really awesome musicians and really nice guys!!! I miss the beacon theater and the wetlands... I miss NYC and going to see these guys!!!

  • @Honeypietwinny Went and saw them 2 nights in a row this past spring brother. Was there for the 40th Anniversary show of Live at the Fillmore East. Just pure magic to the ears.

  • the look on their faces at the end tells us all there is to know - they look ecstatic!! Truly a great moment

  • 34 dislikes??? really.?

  • GREAT AWESOME  ABB FOREVER

  • That's great, but I prefer when Warren play this song with fabio treves and Alex kid Gariazzo on database...

  • Comment removed

  • fucked my ear pussy

  • Awesome tune.

  • Greatness captured.

  • Damn Warren n trucks amazing

  • Da se smrzneš! 'Bote.
