Let Me Get By

I Know, Right?How lucky am I? If you hadn't had the opportunity yet, definitely make a point of spending and evening with Susan and Derek!

I've been critical of the last two TTB recordings. Live they are a tour de force, but when I get home or go out in the car, it's "Songlines" or "Already Free" that I reach for every time. Imagine the big grin when I played this latest CD then. Susan's singing is a little less strained and it is all the more appealing for all that. Many of these tracks could easily have been on "Already Free". The last track on the 2nd CD of the "Deluxe Edition" ("Keep on Growing") is flat out Dicky Betts / Jessica. Mike Mattison makes an oh-so welcome return to stage centre. There's just enough of that wonderful guitar to guild the performance without taking over the song. Excellent horns. Even if you have never encountered TTB, buy this CD and then make every effort to see them live. The songs are eclectic which was not so much the case on "Made Up Mind". Highly recommended then.

Incredible album that showcases the merit and versatility of a big band. You won't get bored listening to this one. Tedeschi's voice continues to evolve and refine, Trucks rocks, funks and soars, the brass section owns it, and the keyboardist's flute work is sublime. There are a couple of tracks on disc 1 that I usually skip but the rest are diamonds. Disc 2 is basically studio practice/experimental cuts of disc 1 songs, trending to less refined but still cool. The last cut is amazing, pure Allman Brothers but on steroids, with Susan fronting with delightful effect -- this song alone is worth the extra cost of the deluxe edition, but be aware the unique Fender amp packaging won't fit in typical CD storage. This album instantly became a favorite in my collection.

I absolutely LOVE this band. I recently saw them at the Bell Auditorium, in Augusta, GA, 4 rows from the stage, and the sound was absolutely AWESOME. This band is tight, and they take the ENTIRE band with them on tour. Of course, they play longer versions of the songs live, which is really cool. I can't wait to see them again. They played a lot of material from this album.I think this album is a little slow, but there are some great hits on here, including the title track, "Let Me Get By", "Laugh About It", and "Anyhow". I hope this band can stay together and keep putting out such great soul/blues/jazz mixes, that are really from the heart.

I have intermittent hearing loss due to a birth defect, and it acted up in early January and lasted for over two months. I had been waiting for this album since it was first announced last year, and unfortunately I had to wait until my hearing returned before I could order it. It was well worth the wait. Every song on here is a gem, a true joy to hear and savor. With each album the TTB only grows better, crafting songs that stir the soul. They cover so many genres in their music that it's impossible to peg them as simply a "blues-rock" or "jam band". I've had this deluxe set for almost two months now and still find myself listening to it at least a few times a week.

Absolutely adore this album... Whether im decompressing from a bad day, jamming out while cleaning house or finding my motivation while getting ready for work, this album helps me out. It's a fantastic display of TTB's talent.

Just got hooked on the Tedeschi Trucks band...listen especially to Midnight in Harlem just about EVERY DAY! used to be in the business and played music all day in the office...you got so you knew immediately when you heard a "hit"! This album was extra and I enjoy it all the time.

TTB's most consistent album from start to finish. They get tighter every year, and this time the songwriting consistently stands up to the musicianship. Check out the title track, Anyhow, and the beautiful ballad In My Heart. Derek's slide/lead work shines without overpowering. What can you say about Susan's voice? Fine range and tone, switching effortlessly from sweet to edgy blues. Her vocal interplay with Mike Mattison is spot-on. She's a great guitarist, too, easily bridging rhythm and second lead. The horns, keys, and rhythm sections fill out the tight, clean big-band sound. The deluxe edition contains a few worth-it alternate mixes (again In My Heart is a standout) and a few live tracks from a Beacon Theatre gig. The cover of the Domino's Keep On Growing is killer.

Prodotto di qualità.Venditore puntuale e solerte.

This is a fine example of a group that has matured and grown in its musicality. It sounds like the band has taken a purposeful change in direction, all for the better.Derek's excellent guitar work is drawn back a bit to allow the vocals and other instrumentation to come to the fore. The result is a memorable album of tuneful selections.What adjectives to describe this album? Delightful, harmonic, heartwarming, inspiring!

Descubrí a Tedeschi en un DVD del "Festival de la Guitarra" de Eric Clapton. Tanto ella como su marido Derek Alman, de los Alman Brother (otra banda espectacular) son una maravilla. Un rock muy cuidado fusionado a la perfección con el folk y el country. Recomiendo buscar la otra versión del grupo DEREK TRUCKS BAND

Was früher mal Blood, Sweat & Tears versucht haben: Tedeschi Trucks sind, so finde ich, ein ganzes Stück weiter gekommen im ewigen Wettbewerb der ganz, ganz Großen im Nicht-Mainstream. Ich empfinde die (sozusagen Doppel-) CD als abgeschlossenes Werk plus Workbook einer Big-Band-Rock-Rundum-Wohlfühl-Truppe mit unglaublichen Musikern, genialen Songs, brillant vertont und stark in die Beine gehend. Alles hat sich m. E. noch einmal verbessert, sogar Derek Trucks. Susan Tedeschi erinnert mich nicht nur an Größen wie T. T., Ruthie Foster, Bonnie, sondern sogar an Maggie Bell von Stone the Crows. Auch der neue Sänger - hervorragend, auch wenn nicht wirklich nötig - treibt die Band treibt die Band weiter voran. Kann das nächste Live-Konzert gar nicht erwarten. Auch wenn Let me get by über die Wartezeit sehr gut hinwegtröstet...

le nouveau cd de tedeschi trucks band que j'attendais avec impatience est enfin arrivé,quelques morceaux avaient été joués à Paris au mois de novembre le tout est superbe ,le blues rock de TTB est maîtrisé ,les cuivres impeccables ,les solos de guitare de Trucks la voie de Susan Tedeschi font de cet album un incontournable
