Hit: 5 Stars
For fans of Trucks and The Allman Brothers this live recording needs no more recommendation, it is a great show and recording; familiar songs but done with enough variation to keep it interesting.
For the casual listener there is alot to recommend here as well. A killer tight (but loose) band playing their eclectic mix of southern rock-funk-jazz-blues with passion and playful virtuosity. There is no mistaking this band's sound, the funky groove and sinuous slide. This may not be a recording for all moods (Truck's tends to sound like he's working a large power tool when he gets warmed up), but it is great for what it is. (Look online at the Hittinthenote website to order more cheaply and easily, and check out their latest SONGLINES CD and DVD)
Free Music Review: Great Playing, Not So Great Mix
Hit: 4 Stars
Is it just me? I can't agree with those who rate the sound quality of this otherwise remarkable set. To these ears, there are too many vocals (and some flute) that sound a little off mike, and the balance between instruments is sometimes poor. Although it's not, it sounds to me like a live broadcast mix.
That said, I'd walk across broken glass to see this band play.
This set has a weird retail history, being touted first (I believe) as an iTunes-only release. I bought my copy for a very reasonable $9.98 from www.shopbootlegs.com, but it's out-of-stock there as at July 2007. I certainly wouldn't pay the exorbitant import price. Shop around.
Free Music Review: Good solid performance
Hit: 4 Stars
If you've heard the Derek Trucks Band then you'll want this. It is a good solid performance, maybe not as controlled as the DVD Songlines Live, and a lot looser. This sounds like they're testing out some of the material that ended up on Songlines and it is interesting to see where it is here.
Stop reading the reviews and just buy it - you'll like it.
Free Music Review: Don't buy this
Hit: 1 Stars
You can buy it for $10 at the Sony Music Store (linked from the band's website).
