If you are into music in any way there is one thing you should do before you leave this blue marble, it’s to go and see Tedeschi Trucks band live. Trust me, it will be a life altering experience for you. There is so much love and positivity flowing off that stage. Not only are they a touring family, but in real life Susan and Derek are man and wife who have their kids touring with them.
This album is sooo good, melding styles of blues, R’n’B, funk, and good old rock and roll, all fronted by Susan’s incredibly soulful voice and that distinct slide guitar of Derek. I love every inch of this record, it’s just superb. The melody and Susan’s voice on Midnight In Harlem brings a tear to the eye, as it’s such a moving piece. If I’m pushed, my favourite song is opener Come See About Me. From the swamp acoustic guitar at the intro, to that killer hook and chorus.
I think everyone should have this in their soul just to switch on when things are down. Trust me, you need this.
10/10 from The Grooveman.
