Derek Trucks


I have seen Derek in a number of DVD's and finally decided to try some of his own cd's. I picked up Derek Trucks Band "Songlines", this cd is fantastic, I keep playing it over and over. Guitar, flute and vocals kick. Another great cd I purchased recently that is also great is Jason Isbell(formerly in Drive by Truckers) "Sirens of the Ditch".
It's hard to find cd's like these two that from the 1st listen, just grab you.
Any rec's for other titles from Derek or Jason that are must haves?

Thing to do, if at all possible, is see the Derek Trucks Band live... I started seeing them years back... before they got "big"... lots of musical fun, they played small clubs then..still do in some towns..
DTB website has touring schedule.. this is one of those bands that is fun on cd and dvd, but live.. they really get the energy out there... very creative and diverse.. Bob Marley, Blues, Coltrane, originals... Derek is one of the all too few people who seems to channel music through himself at times..
kind of how a superb stereo gets out of the way... he does too.. the music just flows..
