Loved it when the Box Tops did it. Loved it when Joe Cocker did it with Mad Dogs & Englishmen. And now, TTB nails it again. Three great performances.

Absolutely hands down, the best ever cover of this song. Just when you thought Joe Cocker brought the soul, enter Susan Tedeschi.

It's the Bass player, man he's so on it !! perfect time keeper. I also remember Sue's very early version of 'Don't Think Twice', & I recall thinking this Gal's goin' to be right up there..!! Terrific.

Dear Lord. I’ve been listening to this band for three years now, own their last four albums AND JUST WAS FLOORED BY THIS PERFORMANCE. They never stop amazing me with their love of the music and vibe together as a band.

[Nicholas-bm]

Absolutely fantastic.The level of talent here is immeasurable!

Tedeschi Trucks is an amazing band and Susan has some great pipes, she can really lay it down!

[jmccullough]

Man, these Leon Russell arrangements are still amazing, .

[ikkenhisatsu]

Man, what a voice. And Derek is one of the greatest ever - just perfect.

[oregontrail]

Holy mother, that was freaking awesome, Susan's voice is fantastic!

[miltontoro]

From 2:50 on is some of the best music I have ever seen & heard played. Susan love the leather & pigtails! There is no better band. The sky didn’t just fall, it was knocked unconscious.

Story is they used to tour together but as separate bands, and saw the Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour organized by Leon Russell and saw how much fun they were having playing with a big big band on stage. They got a horn section and backup singers and started touring as the TTB. I for one am glad they did this. Their sound is so much richer now and they're also able to play more music that requires a big band, rather than the 4 piece bands they used to have when they were separate bands.

This version of the Letter has such a Joe Cocker, Leon Russell feeling to it.

[armadillotoe]

This is wonderful! There is more talent on that stage than most will ever see.

[tomderrick]

Amazing voice and one of the best guitar players alive

[LarryCorkBourgeois]

I remember seeing them at the House of Blues where she came on stage unexpectedly, it was so fantastic. I remember her as a kid from our neighborhood, belting out tunes at a very young age

[robertpulica]

By And Far The Best Band Playing Today. It's so awesome they continued to pay the salaries of their band and crew while sidelined by Covid.That says it all the best of best as people as well as musicians their kids are so lucky to have them for parents.

Folks if you have the opportunity to see TTB in concert don't think twice, buy your ticket and go. I saw them in Jacksonville Fl, A three hour drive from my home. It was worth every minute of travel time and worth every dime for admission. Susan is beautiful and her voice makes angles cry. Her hubby has a little talent on slide guitar. 👍 The entire band is just a wonder to hear and also to see. It is quite the party. GO SEE THIS BAND IN CONCERT! Your soul with thank you.

It's great to see a band use actual instruments - the horn section is inspirational.

[Jakelyn]

TTB really is one awesome band. What a voice of Susan. Wow !
