Derek Trucks Band- LIVE June 09, 1999 Liz Reed

MUST SEE-This is the last ten minutes of the encore that night, the day AFTER Derek's 20th birthday. This one builds slowly, stick with it through the broken string and all, you won't be disappointed.

i dont see no broken string

[PostToastie]

At 9:28 - 9:30 he smooooothly pulls it out of the way.

[sbnewman]

how do you go from Derek Trucks to RIP Tupac?

[Hektor88]

well everyone has their particular style. Trucks has his signature riffs, so does EC, Hendrix, Santana, etc.

I think EC is better than ever. His playing has so many subtleties now, its not just about power and aggression like it was with Cream (although that was great too).

[Aegis90]

Haha..you gotta love the chromatic insanity about 7:00 8:00

[gretschdude01]

I agree

[brendanm22]

i think he is washed up. and that tone of his doesnt work for me. its awful. plus he's been playing the same solo for about 40 years. but he is god right?

[Hektor88]

i guess thats why Trucks agreed to tour with him? Cuz he sucks?

[brendanm22]

clapton sucks. his tone is bland nowadays.

[soulbrotha4u]

I love these guys. I've seen them twice now. This is one my favorite songs to cover

[HendrixClaptonSRV]

i thought the same way, but i heard trucks saying that he was trying to give it all he had talent wise with clapton and doyle. not to prove whos better he said. but to keep the excitement up, not in like disrespect a gainst the guys but they are competetive when it comes to that.

[codyr222]

The first phrase that Derek plays around 3:25-3:30 is the best intro lick to Elizabeth Reed I've ever heard, even when considered alongside Dickey's volume swells at the Fillmore East.

i remember hearing liz reed played in 99 in kc and wondering because he never played abb covers before... the next week it was announced he was joining the brothers

his popularity has gone up ever since, and deservably so
