| Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating : - The Derek Trucks Band "Songlines Live" This is an outstanding concert that was filmed at The Park West in Chicago on January 28, 2006. The music is very "soulful", "jazzy", "smooth", "jam-oriented", and "spontaneous and improvised" at times. The band is very talented and work very well together as musicians.
The line-up consists of: Derek Trucks on lead guitar(he plays excellent guitar work including slide guitar play), Todd Smallie on bass and vocals, Yonrico Scott on drums and percussion and vocals, Kofi Burbridge on keyboards, flute and vocals, Mike Mattison on Lead Vocals( He is an outstanding vocalist- his vocals flow along with the music just perfect), and Count M'Butu on congas and percussion. The Band works together "like a well oiled Machnine".
The set list consists of 20 songs (about 2 hours of music), some highlights include: "Joyful Noise", "Key to the Highway", "I'd rather be blind, crippled and crazy", "All I Do", "Sailing On", "Soul Serenade", "For my Brother", "Let's Go Get Stoned", "Voices Inside", and "Anyday".
The encore consists of two more songs. If you like "smooth","jam-oriented", "improvised" "bluey-jazzy" music with excellent lead guitar work, you'll enjoy this one. I highly recommend this concert dvd.
