Live: Everybody's Talkin' album Product Description
Live: Everybody's Talkin' album by Tedeschi Trucks Band was released May 22, 2012 on the Masterworks label. The Tedeschi Trucks Band is an 11-piece ensemble made up of guitarist-vocalist Susan Tedeschi's and guitarist Derek Trucks' individual bands. Live: Everybody's Talkin' music CDs They made their debut with 2011's Grammy-winning Revelator, a sprawling collection that showcased funky R&B, gospel, blues, and scorching large band rock. Live: Everybody's Talkin' songs Everybody's Talkin', a double disc, is a live offering from that supporting tour. Live: Everybody's Talkin' album Produced by Trucks, it includes live versions of some album tracks and six beautifully chosen covers; all its tunes are given extended, imaginatively arranged treatments. Live: Everybody's Talkin' CD music It's an unusual live record because its balance of sonic precision and stage-born kinetics is perfect -- this band transitions seamlessly between R&B, blues, rock, gospel, and jazz. Live: Everybody's Talkin' music CDs These performances never succumb to mere jam band clichés. On disc one, "Midnight in Harlem" is introduced by a mini raga played as a slide solo by Trucks. The band enters gradually, and Tedeschi's soulful vocal carries them all the way in. (Tedeschi is revealed, song after song -- far beyond her solo records or even Revelator -- to be among the truly great singers in modern blues and rock; by turns graceful and grainy, her expression reaches the spiritual in execution. ) At over 11 minutes, the interplay between guitarists, Mike Mattison's backing vocals, keyboards, and rhythm section are impeccable. Things get rowdier on "Learn How to Love," with nasty guitar work by Tedeschi, and a burning tenor sax solo by Kebbi Williams. The horn section really pops in "Bound for Glory"; the exchange between the Burbridge brothers on bass and keys, with drummers Tyler Greenwell and J.J. Johnson, adds a knotty improv bridge where deep funk and blues grind together. The disc closes with an astonishing reading of John Sebastian's "Darlin" Be Home Soon." With horns tastefully accenting and underscoring lead vocals, Trucks' slide solo stays melodically true, yet moves through the band's shimmering groove into the stratosphere (and he does this throughout this album, over and over again, helping to elevate not only the tune, but the sense of groove, space, and texture). Disc two contains only four cuts but they're all gems: Pearl Woods' "That Did It" (a Bobby "Blue" Bland vehicle) is a down and gritty strut, with excellent, in-the-grain guitar work by Tedeschi. ...See Full Description

| good drivin music everything about this cd is great By jdmanchester (manchester nh)  This review is for a different format. |
| I like this album, but... ...after a couple of listens one realizes that the songs all follow the same pattern. Susan Tedeschi's voice - I think she is the greatest female vocalist since Janis Joplin. Derek Trucks' slide guitar is very good but he is no Joe Bonamassa. The band's bass player needs to scale it back several notches - he plays like he's trying to be a lead guitarist instead of a bassman. If this band stays together long enough they may mature and correct these deficiencies. I hope so. They are very talented.
