Being true
Falling out a window
For the view
All of us laugh
How many of us sing?
This sky where we live
Is no place to lose your wings
So love, love, love
Lose your body
And your mind
And the bitter
Taste of time
All of us cry
While we should be dancing
This sky where we live
Is no place to lose your wings
So love, love, love
Fly, fly away
Do you remember?
All of us sleeping
How many of us dream?
This sky where we live
Is no place to lose your wings
So love, love, love

Well, unless I'm driving... then I pretend I'm driving down a cool coastal road.

Ditto
When we should be dancing
This sky where we live
Is no place to lose your wings,
so Love, Love, Love!
Tell it brother! Tell it with that super-funky slide guitar!
Pretty much exactly what I'd say to ppopp...LLRP!
I've noticed that before about him. Sometimes he's right in the Robbie groove.

So true, that's why I think Derek Trucks sucks...
c.
It's all about the feel on this one, sometimes the slide just sounds right for the lyrics, and that's the case for me with this one.



It's the real deal.
While we should be dancing
Amen, brother.
Tell that to this fucker of a 2017 comfortably numbnuts president.
Sorry, political vent.
Thanks, Derek.
Hey, Butch Trucks is a relative of Derek Trucks.
Butch Trucks played in the Allman Bros.
Duane Allman was a brother, and a co-pilot in Derek and the Dominoes.
Derek rhymed with Eric. And so on.
I haven't read up, I think there may not be a connection, but is there?
Derek is Butch's nephew and played in the ABB until the end. He's 2nd gen Allman's...
I'm always out of here via PSD when that band plays....
really?!?

It's this style of white guy electric blues that kind of irritates me.

Me too. Don't know why, because I usually like slow, dreamy pieces like this. This is just boring.
That is exactly what I was just thinking...hmmm... how did you do that?..

Down to 4 for me...
Sadly, Duane is not making any new music. I see this comment like I would someone saying "If I wanted to listen to real blues, I'll listen to Robert Johnson." So, no one else can possibly make anything new/interesting/better? Kind of a depressing thought.
Not really.
clearly your range is not as wide as you think

I'm not sure it's a contest.

Yes I agree it would be no contest.

Yes, maybe you're right, every emotion "should be allowed."
Including, say, racial hatred and religious rage?
Anyway, are you saying it's better to be sad than happy?
Because most of us can think of a dozen or more in-the-news place in the world right now where that sentiment would be total bullshit. And that's just for starters.
If music could encourage and foster more "emotions" like those who "should be dancing" I think about 5 billion people would be better off.
Just sayin'.
That. Just that. And the thing that I just cannot be angry at anything or anyone anymore after hearing This song. Peace.
But I dislike the harah krishna "all of us cry, while we should be dancing"
Every emotion should be allowed

Agree, but i thinks it's a wasted opportunity.
it has the Indian/Asian flavor at the outset but squanders it with a Western ADHD affliction. They got the notes but not the sense.

His slide work here is so damn good I had absolutely no idea it was a slide until reading your comment, and even then had to listen reeeeeally carefully.
Edit: .... until the solo

Bears say "+1, babies!" This is a 10. Something happened when thy cut this track....

Or the evening.


I really liked my first time too.
A lot of lyrics in the blues music is not very "high spirit" something, but the music is great!!
True, but it would be sort of contradictory for a blues tune to have happy lyrics.

Yea- really "Hud," now that you've tapped the awesome power of the internet, Google the lyrics to "Crossroads"- they dont need to make sense to be the giant cornerstone of American music and culture that song represents. It's poetry, yo?- it creates a picture, and you can still barrelhouse on- the riverside— baby!
All of us cry
While we should be dancing
This sky where we live
Is no place to lose your wings
So love, love, love
Amen, brother!

How about Joe Bonamassa? I think he's better. (Not taking anything away from Trucks.)

Yes, play some more of his rocking tunes.
After all...he is probably the greatest living guitar player under 40.
And he needs to tour more!

Would fit my 2 AM mood a bit better...
Romantic, dozy, sleepy, romantic... Not work-work-work thing...
Still an nice steady -8- just because it's that good.
Seeing Tedeschi Trucks Band for the fourth time tomorrow night!
Looking forward to a great show and enjoying a few cold ones on a beautiful summer night.

Amen to that thought. I was watching a rerun of a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction show on Palladia last weekend, and they were flashing up a montage of photos of Aretha Franklin... in one photo, unaccountably there's Duane Allman kind of gazing out past Aretha at something. Reminded me again how much great music we probably lost in that accident. Sometimes when I listen to stuff from "Layla and other..." I get a little verklempt thinking about that. But Derek is definitely some solace.


Calming and fun- I will have to cave soon to the urge to purchase this...
