Have you heard about this guitar player, Derek Trucks? If you have not I suggest you Run, Search, Scream, do whatever you can to find & listen more about this Master.
I have been following Derek and his playing since 97, he was 17 then. He turns 30 in early June. He has played in Eric Clapton’s recent tour, is a member of the Allman Brothers Band since 99 and is the nephew of the Allmans Original drummer Butch Trucks, other notables he has played with B.B. King, Johnny Winter, Carlos Santana and so many more its just too many to list let alone his own project the Derek Trucks Band. I have had a variety of times to sit & talk with Derek, He is so humble "a true kind soul". He is Married to the Beautiful Susan Tedeski who's voice will knock you out, he also has a project with Susan called Soul Stew Revival.
Derek plays in open E tuning, his slide and fretting is unbelievable beside tone, his openness to other influences- Music has taken him "in my opinion" further than any current guitarist alive or dead. Like I said, if you have not heard of Derek, his playing, take the time to discover what he brings with his being. Sure he may not be your cup of tea but as Carlos Santana spoke of Derek he said, "we had John Coltrane, Miles Davis and now we have Derek Trucks....He is truly the genius of our time."
