@bthoma1 Nope. Even Duane would have told you differently, Derek is at the "Mozart" level of playing, it just flows naturally through his veins. Duane was great, Derek is perfection.
-
Derek formed The Derek Trucks band when he was 15, not 18. He also joined ABB before 2002.
-
@aditya773 I think it's "Woman Across the River". If you like this kind of music at all, you should buy the "Live at the Beacon Theater" DVD that it came from. It's fantastic.
-
"...purest tone possible by connecting his 2061 SG Reissue guitar directly to his amplifier, a Fender 1965 Super Reverb,." I'm sure he meant his 2000 Gibson SG 1961 reissue...but it came out a little strange. great video though!

Voluntary slavery? Its called "paying your income tax". wake up people.
thanks Derek!!!
-
@papadog101 you're out of your mind. Derek is the BEST slide player like Jerry Douglas is the BEST dobro player. There's nobody even close: Duane Allman, Johnny Winter, none of 'em even come close. There aren't too many musicians that you can say that about but Derek is an obvious incarnation of something very, very special.
-
Thanks for doing this! =D Very informative. Cleared up a lot of unknowns for me. A+ ;)
-
Derek Trucks was a prodigy...he's now a master. But trying to choose the best slide guitar player is like trying to choose the best jelly doughnut. They are all good! The guys that preceded him are legends in their own time.. Derek is here and now!
-
He's damn good...he was a prodigy....he's now a master. But trying to choose whose best slide player of those that were previously mentioned is like trying to choose which Krispy Kreme taste better. Hell they're all good. But Derek is here and now. Duane is gone and (as far as I can tell) Dickey is absent.

Duane is dead, Derek is alive im pretty sure Derek is better. RIP Duane
