Derek Trucks on the Death of Les Paul: Excerpt from the Dusty Wright Show

[strick3769]

Dereck: The U.S. entertainment is so very lucky to have you out there playing and peforming. You are truly a wonder. You are the best case for reincarnation I've run across. You are very young man with the wisom of an old sage... May your health and good fortune never end

i saw him a few days later in concert and he had a les paul sitting on stage the whole show

[ohvnaq]

haha Trucks has a slide on the whole time

[squabs217]

... Just another example of why Derek Trucks is known by so many as the nicest guy in show business .

[ICouldNever]

@squabs217 who says that?

[CharlottewithanS]

This was one of the best Derek Trucks interviews out there. You asked the right questions. Thanks so much for chasing him down and getting him him to come on the show.

Taylor410ce makes such a good point...here was Les Paul who gave so much music and barely a mention in the press.

[taylor410ce]

Derek just said exactly what i was thinking and more!

What i don't understand is why people made such a big deal about micheal jackson's death and no one said or did anything when Les Paul died? with out Les Paul there would have never been a micheal jackson. I guess everyone is too fucking dumb to realize that.

[BadBoysBlues]

you are so right man!!

[RHMETAL]

I can't wait to see it.

[RHMETAL]

Dusty, what happened to Culture Catch? I thought you were still doing that.

[MyBrokenLeftFoot]

Nothing. Culture Catch is still going strong. Just rebranded my show under the CC banner. Wait til you see this complete interview. Thanks for keeping up to date.
