Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi - Soul Stew Revival (Page 2 of 3)

I was just saying that because she plays with Derek on Crossroads, and that's been on PBS lately.

You can also check them out on Eric CLapton Crossords DVD. Hey Rocking Ron! Have you heard they closed Lucky's? Sad day when I heard that one............

Hey Susan.  You must try to check out the Crossroads dvd to watch Derek and Susan perform.  They put on an amazing performance together, however, the best part for me is when the camera pans over to Bill Murray (he introduces the bands that day) and you see his facial expressions..........he is COMPLETELY blown away watching and listening to them perform.

Never too late...Merry Christmas!

So Susan, did you get the DVD of Crossroads?  If so, what did you think of Derek's and Susan's performance?  Hope you enjoy the show at the HOB!  We just got tickets for the Fox Theatre for the 31st in Atlanta... 
Should be some excellent shows.

All I can say is WOW!!!  What an incredibly fun night.  I saw my 2nd favorite guitar player in the world last night. (We all know who No. 1 is).  We hooked up with some friends from Tampa outside the HOB and when the doors opened, we headed up to the front of the stage.  Scrapomatic opened up the show.  They are very good, but making it better, Susan came out and sang one song with them.  Scrapomatic played a funky rendition of Prince's "1999",  and it took me half the song to realize what they were playing.  Very cool song.

With Susan's smokey vocals and Derek's amazing slide work, I knew I was in for a treat and I was. I was not familiar with all the music, but every song was so good. The rest of the band was not to shabby either.  First, there's vocalist Mike Mattison, who shared the stage with Susan. Then there was a great flute solo by the keyboardist Kofi Burbridge, then there was the great saxophone work (Ron Holloway).  Not to mention the two drummers (Yonrico Scott and Duane Trucks),  percussionist (Count M'Butu) and bass player (Todd Smallie). 

After the show, I was handed a very cool artistic set list of the show by someone on the stage.  We went over to the bar and ordered a drink and Kofi Burdridge came over and talked to us.  He also signed my set list.  Then, we walked outside and decided to walk around backstage. Nobody stopped us and before you know it, we were outside the bus and ran into Susan.  We shook hands and talked to her for a minute and she also signed my set list.  Then we saw Derek on the bus.  With a little coaxing, he came out.  I shook his hand and talked to him for a little while.  He also signed my set list. I told him I saw him play at a club in the Orlando area called the Junkyard when he was a kid.  He sort of chuckled and said "Yeah, that was in Casselberry. I was playing with those Blues guys". 

We took a few pictures of the show with my cell phone.  Also took one of the set list.  Some are pretty fuzzy, but no cameras were allowed in.  They are best viewed by clicking on "Slideshow".

Enjoy,

Susan
