Since it is the blogs birthday I thought it would be appropriate to go to the man that inspired its beginning, Derek Trucks.
This is the new band I mentioned earlier that Derek was forming. Alas the lineup, listed below, is a little different from the one I envisioned. I am pretty fired up that Oteil and Kofi Burbridge are playing together.
The husband and wife duo are pictured here with Hubert Sumlin and Steve Winwood.
The band plays a bunch of new material they have worked up. They have written some new tunes and also cover some real gems. Including one of the greatest songs ever written, “Corrina, Corrina”, by Taj Mahal. The tunes to close out the set and also the encore are phenomenal.
Listen to a new tune by the band “Come And See About Me” here:

Once again Willie Nelson has put together a new project that has me very excited. For those that missed the PBS Soundstage television broadcast, hopefully this will hold you over until the record comes out.
Willie is plugging his soon to be released record Country Music. I’ve been fired up for this release ever since Linda posted about it on Still Is Still Moving. The album is produced by T Bone Burnett and also includes Buddy Miller, who unfortunately doesn’t play on this show.
For this show Willie pulls together a bunch of the best Bluegrass and Old Time musicians and plays a bunch of new (for him) tunes. It would be great to see The Willie Nelson Bluegrass Band on tour this summer. An appearance at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival looks unlikely, along with one from me.
“Satan, Your Kingdom Must Come Down”
