Songlines

I can't believe I'm just now finding out about this super-talented guitar player and his band. This guy is fantastic with ear-catching chops that are also super-melodic. He's got tremendous feel, probably one of the best guitar players I've ever heard.

The whole album is very listener-friendly, energetic yet easy going. It's bluesy and really funky. Great keyboards too. In fact, the singing, the drumming and everything else here is first rate.

Very pleased with the entire recording. Shows off Trucks' guitar heritage. Find myself reaching for the CD more and more.

I recently read the Rolling Stone list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists from a few years back, and Trucks was on it. At 24 years old! This album showed me why. From Sailing On, Revolution, and I Wish I Knew, Trucks shows his wide spectrum and ability as a slide guitarist. His cover of Nina Simone's 'I Wish I Knew' has the gospel tone with vocalist Mike Mattison, and it's definitely my favorite song on the album. Also, his wife and great guitarist, Susan Tedeschi, appears on this album, giving it even more firepower.

He's going to be remembered as one of the greatest guitarists ever. I know that's a bold statement seeing as he's only 28. But if you don't believe me, get this album. It's worth it!

no time to get into detail, but the second CD is so good, it's been in my cd player for the past month............

I was pleasantly surprised with the entire CD - it's a very eclectic mix of bluesy rock, rythmic African flavored drumming and a bit of Indian rock thrown in for good measure and the vocals are awesome....something for everyone!
