Lyle Brewer and Duke Levine in Somerville MA 7-11-12

Lyle and Duke at a recording session for a new Lyle Brewer release.

Just hearing this in 2022. First time hearing of Lyle Brewer. What a fantastic young guitar player. And Duke Levine is his usual phenomenal self. The trading back and forth is like a layer cake of delicious guitar tones and killer lines. Duke was in the same Math class as I was in high school. He was a phenom even at 16, blew us away at the variety show.

Was unaware of Duke until I saw him backing Bonnie Raitt on the Colbert Show last week which led me on a Duke hunt, culminating here where I've discovered Lyle. Two very classy, chill, understated players producing some delicious Tele magic.

I've watched this many, many times, never gets tiring. Love the flow and the country twang, beautiful.

[@cottinulysse8754]

Duke has the sound , the knowledge and the feeling . Master !

[@Guitargate]

Lyle is so damn good. That country stuff it spot on.

[@ronnieking1025]

Thanks Mr.Fender For The Telecaster

[@HugLovingPanda]

Brewer is one of the best and most fresh guitarists I've heard come out of the modern age, it's a shame he isn't more well known.

[@mitchellkarera]

All the best players are those you'll never hear.

It doesn’t get better than this.

[@richiebeard994]

I heard Lyle on "Mittens" (Ten minutes ago) by Heather Masse and I had to find out who this guy is, and low and behold he's playing with Duke Levine (Another incredible guitarist who I will search out more, also). I feel like I hit the lottery!!!

[@goswo]

The band = GREAT. The young man = GREAT. Duke = out of this world, and such a respectful gentleman. Bravo.

[@dougg5707]

Long time Duke fan and absolutely love Lyles style and skill that just resonates a maturity and focus so rare today and in any era. That track sounds so familiar almost too familiar I'm hesitant to question it and get a "well duh" reply. Maybe its fresh but it screams Kenny Burrell. Or maybe its a Duke creation and I just havnt been paying enough attention lately? Of course the title states its material for Lyles release... Is it his own or a cover? Regardless thanks for sharing this fellas and I hope life is treating you all well!

[@paulharty3081]

Great guitar duel.

[@doodleedledoo]

World class talent right there all of them. Dean Cassell on bass to start with.....maybe you can't hear him cause he's so in the pocket he's almost transparent.

[@Jonathan-L]

Is Lyle Brewer any relation to Bobby Brewer? (the guitar player from The Funkdawgs).

[@liornir]

wow!

[@georgelewis1746]

Those are not old drums. They are Eames, made by Joe MacSweeney at North Shore Drum Shop. Best out there.

[@vizztone]

Nice... very nice!

[@peti802]

The real thang!

[@JoeyFielding1]

this is the shit !!!!!! love it

[@mattsparacino6878]

Bravo !

[@gimmeagig]

Funny how different a Tele is from other guitars. Immediately identifiable. It almost demands to be played that way. Unless you're Jimmy Page or Mike Stern or Ed Bickert of course LOL. Great video, beautiful playing by both of those guys.

Chitlins con Carne!

[@daltonyerby6972]

recognized the tune but couldn’t put my finger on it, thank you

[@MarkoMarcello]

So a great bass can be played seated.

[@doodleedledoo]

Actually he had a really bad back during this time period, that's why he was sitting down!

[@j.b.55]

Bob Newhart’s on bass 😂😂😂

[@Johnny-Burma]

No need for vocals or hair gel.

[@remoall]

Not bad...:-)

Why do these roots guitar players, who are very, very good, always use drummers with 1940s and 50s vintage drums sets? You can make the argument that 50s amps, hand wired, are better amps than what come out now (though with the rise of "boutique" amps, that's really no longer the case). But 40s and 50s drums sets? Sorry, but they just suck. And the only reason to seek out drummers that use them is to cultivate some really bullshit conception of "authenticity." Stop the pretense, man. Get some cats with DWs or high end Yamahas, or if you insist on old, try Gretsch round badges, not these big ass 40s and 50s Slingerland and Rogers stuff. I thought pretense is what roots music was trying to overcome.
