Check out the rest of this killer show!

Warren is such an under rated talent. Everyone always talks about how good Derek is but Warren is the whole package, Guitarist, singer and a front man with real stage presence. Also the man got's SOUL!!!

[marvincrooker]

I cannot think of any other group that ever had this level of guitar genius so consistently.Allman, Betts, Haynes, Trucks, oh my.

I once saw Derek Trucks open for Santana in Chicago. They did Santana's "No One to Depend On" as an encore with those twin guitars. I almost jumped off the balcony! There was a lot of Latinos at the show(I'm a Brother) because Santana was rolling with "Supernatural" and they thought I was nuts! I was singing in Spanish and everything. That was one hell of a duet between Carlos and Derek. Good

Lord have mercy. I may never play again after 57 years of bluesing

Derek Trucks...it just flows out of him. He is a natural. One of the best blues guitarists of our time.

[timhallas]

The Allman bros. were so lucky to have this "kid" waiting in the wings. Derek filled the void left by Dickey Betts, and then took this band to a whole new level of excellence. (my opinion)

[generalmaximuspatton]

Thank GOD this performance was captured, and so clearly. Epic moment in blues history right there.

[rescue]

God I love blues. Goes right down my spine and gives me goosebumps and the sky cries right down my nose. Some people never find the loves of their lives in another person. I'm one of them. I found it here. I love blues. Blues loves me. The love of my life.

[Ifturnsouttobe]

My guitar is in the corner, looking at me.." you never touch ME that way..." you knew what this was from the start ! My God!! He gets the cleanest, perfect stops always, at any speed and intensity.

[lyad]

Derek Truck is simply a sensational guitar MONSTER. What he does comes not only out of incredible skill, but HEART. He has not rehearsed this, it's all coming out spontaneously! SPECTACULAR!!!!

[petehoward]

Derek Trucks...just so damn good. I cannot get enough. Tedeschi Trucks band...same.

[gregmason]

Wow. I played guitar in rock/blues bands for decades and so I have an emotional meltdown when I hear this man play. He is so brilliant at building up the emotion.

[NilsamNY]

Total respect to Warren - beautiful tone and masterful phrasing with his solos. And his singing is right there too.

[michaelferreri]

Jaw dropping. Spectacular. I've never seen ANYONE do what that guy on SG did.

[bobcardenaz]

Warren was great, but Derek's slide solo gave me chills...and great memories of the Skydog.

[bakuslash]

I like how Derek was really into his solo by the end! He was really feeling it. I mean he always plays with immense feeling and virtuoso, but he doesn't normally show it in his stage presence. It just took him over. It was awesome

[bobdixon]

Can you believe, another generation of virtuoso guitarists came from the allman brothers band and they all love the music they're fathers played. It's freaking great! I was listening when they're albums came out and to listen now is the sign it's not going to die!!!

[bobbynoe]

It's a shame that the video title only highlights Derek's great solo, but ignores Warren's phantastic vocals and his mastership in building and phrasing such an exciting blues solo equivalent to Derek's.

[rzantow]

Even for Derek that was an outrageously fantastic solo. WIth Warren and Derek in the band, both at their peak, this had to be one of the all-time greatest lineups ever.
