    Tedeschi Trucks Band

    Man it sucks being out of the music business, still no excuse for missing this one. Just checked out some stuff on youtube and will definitely be buying the disc soon.

    Anyone here have it? Thoughts?

    Man, I heard about this, picked it up, listened and thought, "Wow, good players, but they really need to work on the songwriting."

    Bleagh.

    Agree. A buddy at work introduced them to me. Great playing and the gal has a great voice, but the material was pretty weak. Not everyone should write their own material!

    I have some vidio of them from a recent Crossroads show and it rocks decently.

    If you wanna hear a woman's vocals and some slide gittar, just hie thee to your nearest used CD shoppe & pick up a buttload of Bonnie Raitt CDs for a quarter apiece.

    You're welcome.

    Have to agree with that.

    I realize they're married and wanted to work together, but there's nothing here to sink your teeth into.
    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.

    Yep, the most interesting things I've heard from these two were the cover songs they've done, like Les Dudek's "I Gonna Move." Same with Truck's solo stuff. He's better off touring with the Alman Bros.

    Wow, tough crowd. Couldn't disagree more on this one - I'm not a big fan of Derek's solo stuff at all but together they're pretty good. Great live show too.

    I'm with Kex, haven't heard anything of Derek's I'd buy but I did pick up Revelator and like it quite a bit, I think it's the mood or feel of the album. I favor Midnight In Harlem and Bound For Glory, although when in the mood I can listen all the way through.

    Hate to hijack but on the subject of bluesy material any one heard the last couple of Steve Miller albums? Pretty tasty
