lol i know what your saying but, the song IS in E minor so its not that amazing hes playing it in open E. I know he can play in other keys i just thought i point it out before someone makes a mean comment :)

Interesting - his style is unique for sure. Between Derek and Sonny Landreth, they both have broken new ground on this wonderful art. I am amazed that Derek does all this in open e, but then again, it is just as natural for him to play all keys in open e as it is for a banjo player to play in open g.
I also noticed Derek popped a string in this vid! He handled that well too!

derek plays clean into a fender, open E tuning
|
what tuning is derek trucks using? is that open e?
|
the wah pedal sound is with the keyboard
|
but BB King came before Stevie Ray Vaughan. Derek Trucks would be since SRV.
|
derek trucks would never cover a robben ford tune.
|
blvdben you are right, it's a Taj Mahal song
|
It is a Robben Ford tune.
But still sounds great here.
Derek trucks 'owns' his guitar!
|
Isn't it Taj Mahal, actually? I know Robben Ford plays it but I'm almost positive that it's a Taj Mahal tune.
