This is the most soul healing music I have every heard in my life. I am battling with Cancer. I believe that I am winning my current battle. This group is perfect in the sense that it helps my soul heal, as well as my mind. Thank you for the restoration.

Their sound engineer is the coolest dude ever, Bobby Tis. He does a backstage experience before shows where he lets you see all the gear and how he operates. He’s a legend, he’s recorded the Allman Brothers and the likes of Levon Helm as well.

Grandpa loved this song. Neither of us knew that the other knew this song until one day we were driving together in my car one summmer night and it randomly came on from my playlist. Grandpa was like, “I LOVE THIS SONG.” And turned it up. I was like “ME TOO!” We had a little moment of singing together and then I realized that he was tearing up because he was so in love with the fact that the two are married. Grandpa was never afraid to show emotion. RIP grandpa.

[@bigl6322]

@@hillsmith she does not get the respect she deserves standing next to him. There’s a clip out there of him and bb and her all on stage, and bb was drooling all over Derek and completely ignored her. I lost a measure of respect for bb that day. I got to attend a guitar workshop with Derek when he was 21, he was a humble kid (that would shred your face off with that guitar) who has grown into one of the humble greats that is mellowing into a statesman of the craft. The two of them are amazing to watch. I’ve seen her live also, so I’ve gotten to experience them both first hand, I would love to see them together!

[@COMMANDERREVZ]

[@woodywills1904]

Commander - Same family essentially...

[@jamesg9609]

This is flawless. What occurred to me after many viewings is that every single member of this large ensemble does something vital to the song: the background singers, the horn arrangement, both drummers...Derek and Susan are amazing, but remove a single person from this performance and it's going to diminish the whole by a lot. That's a sign of a tight band and a fantastic arrangement. Just in awe of the talent displayed here...

[@haroldbrown6630]

Well stated.

[@bluejayway5321]

Agreed. Apparently they play as a family. I heard they did their best to carry the band through the shutdown. The particular lineup in this song just blows me away. In addition to T&T, Mike Mattison (backup singer with the acoustic guitar) writes a huge percentage of the band's original material, not to mention one of the most musical set of brothers to come down the line since the Marsalis family, Oteil and Kofi (R.I.P.) Burbridge. Oteil and Derek played together for years in the ABB, and Kofi's contribution is huge - I often listen to this piece just for Kofi's parts. Ephraim Owens on the horn! This group loves what they are doing and each other, evidenced in the fact that they are constantly aware of their complete sound - they friggin' listen to each other, a rare treat. Yet this recording has more going on that needs to be considered. Let me say I'm an award winning sound mixer, and I've also been live as a programmer/DJ on radio. Performing live in front of an audience allows that immediate psychic feedback, and when that's working everything is even better. That night the band wasn't just playing to the people in the venue, they were live on the air, seriously increasing the quantity of positive psychic feedback! Wish I'd been there! But we do have this recording, and it is superb. Having been mixed for radio, with a limited dynamic range, it fits well in the 'godforsakenyoutubestream' and is so finely crafted that one can listen to this recording at serious volume on a decent stereo or pro headphones, without wincing. My last comment is totally DT. I've followed him for years, and have non published recordings of him jamming with everyone. He just gets better. He took the time to study raga with Ali Akbar Kahn, a classical Indian music master and stringed instrument virtuoso. Kahn, through his friendship with world beat percussion master Mickey Hart, moved to Santa Rosa and set up a school. Indian music has studied the way tonal relationships affect the human being, regardless of race, language or upbringing, for over a thousand years. Few musicians in the blues/rock world have gone that far in their education... All of these factors are at play in the eTown recording. Need this at least four times a week for the past year and a half.....

[@SantaCruzOM]

Yes

[@stevehanford1753]

Best Band Ever!!!

[@danaguilar4519]

When a person as supremely talented as Mattison is content to be in the backround for the sake of the band you know it's something special.

[@jonathanstickel7479]

He came of age surrounded by people with amazing talent to play and tell their stories , some by family relatives, others by routine exposure to genius...it does rub off... this is why it’s so heartbreaking to see young kids get exposed only to whatever gets played on the radio. nothing else. Never doubt the power or importance of good music to young kids, you make be looking at the next Tedeshi Trucks band

A hard-won victory is still a victory amigo

[@delewan]

Keep listing, keep savoring the music and let it help heal you. You've got this.

[@ethayer1]

Here’s something to think about. You spent 42 years paying for your mistakes. There’s no point in paying for them for one more second. Your mistakes brought you to recovery and a brighter future. Now you’re free to do as you please, and you can’t live your present life if you’re still living in your past. Forgiveness and losing self judgement is the freedom to live in peace. Believe in yourself. These words are what I tell myself when I feel judgemental or hurt by my past. It’s okay to move on. You’ve paid your dues. You don’t belong in soul prison.

Anyway all that was 65 years ago so fast forward to last year when I heard my son and granddaughter sing this song. I feel in love with it right at the show. Been trying to pick it up on the guitar but my fingers don't move like they did.

You’re finally home.

[@ianmastrangelo2427]

When I used to bartend, there was an old timer who was pretty picky about his music, had a ton of knowledge about bands and used to pretty much stick to the same stuff on the jukebox. I played this song one time and he was like, "Who the heck are these people!?" After that, literally every time he would be in the zone, feeling the love and fairly buzzed, he would ask me to pull up this song as he was slightly illiterate so searching on the jukebox was difficult for him. This song has all kinds of love to share, make sure you soak it in when you listen :)

One of the best posts I’ve ever read on KZbin. I was born in ‘48 and from the time I was three years old, when my parents let me play their 78’s of the Ink Spots, Johnny Ray, Frankie Lane, et al., music has always captivated my mind and soul, let me envision myself bringing joy to everyone by pretending I had a fraction of their talent. I gave up on music when Disco became the rage but five years ago, through KZbin, discovered the wealth of talent around the world by singers and musicians I and a lot of the world has never heard of.

We will miss our brother.” They later released a statement paying tribute to the multi-instrumentalist, saying: “The world lost a true genius on Friday.

RIP Kofi Burbridge ...keys and Flute

Derek makes that guitar sing. The great ones seem to know how to find the pocket and keep within the song. This solo fits the music and mood of this song. It isn't a showing off experience. JJ Cale and Mark Knopfler come to mind as guitarists who do the same thing. The guitar is ever present during the song, like a leaf floating down a river and twisting and turning with the current, while at the same time doing its own thing.

Listening to derek trucks play is a feeling I find really hard to describe, I feel proud that one of his slide playing influence's is from an Indian classical player Ravi Shankar, I discovered the trucks band through a crossroads festival when I was 14, just too beautiful!! This song is one of my personal favorites. Love from India.

[@bluejayway5321]

Agreed. Apparently they play as a family. I heard they did their best to carry the band through the shutdown. The particular lineup in this song just blows me away. In addition to T&T, Mike Mattison (backup singer with the acoustic guitar) writes a huge percentage of the band's original material, not to mention one of the most musical set of brothers to come down the line since the Marsalis family, Oteil and Kofi (R.I.P.) Burbridge. Oteil and Derek played together for years in the ABB, and Kofi's contribution is huge - I often listen to this piece just for Kofi's parts. This group loves what they are doing and each other, evidenced in the fact that they are constantly aware of their complete sound - they friggin' listen to each other, a rare treat. Yet this recording has more going on that needs to be considered. Let me say I'm an award winning sound mixer, and I've also been live as a programmer/DJ on radio. Performing live in front of an audience allows that immediate psychic feedback, and when that's working everything is even better. That night the band wasn't just playing to the people in the venue, they were live on the air, seriously increasing the quantity of positive psychic feedback! Wish I'd been there! But we do have this recording, and it is superb. Having been mixed for radio, with a limited dynamic range, it fits well in the 'godforsakenyoutubestream' and is so finely crafted that one can listen to this recording at serious volume on a decent stereo or pro headphones, without wincing. My last comment is totally DT. I've followed him for years, and have non published recordings of him jamming with everyone. He just gets better. He took the time to study raga with Ali Akbar Kahn, a classical Indian music master and stringed instrument virtuoso. Kahn, through his friendship with world beat percussion master Mickey Hart, moved to Santa Rosa and set up a school. Indian music has studied the way tonal relationships affect the human being, regardless of race, language or upbringing, for over a thousand years. Few musicians in the blues/rock world have gone that far in their education... All of these factors are at play in the eTown recording. Need this at least four times a week for the past year and a half.....

Wow, I never knew about Mike Mattison's contribution to the band's original material or the fact that it was mixed with a limited dynamic range. Although I may not have as much expertise as you considering you're an award-winning mixer, I fully agree!! The band's impressive showcase of skill and musical artistry is exceptional, especially in how they create room for each other; it is truly remarkable. And like you said DT's knowledge is way to deep. Every time a solo comes up, he's "In The Zone", There's so much soul in his playing it sometimes reminds me of SRV. Blues is a feeling you can't pretend... I'm 26 and 90% of my age group are in the train which is "trending" so it feels great to be able to resonate with someone on the same frequency.
