Tiggi Wrote:The Derek Trucks Band - Live at Georgia Theatre
Young slide guitarist & his band.
Trucks is the nephew of one of the Allman Brothers Band drummers, and has apparently played with the band himself.
Definitely Blues, but with strong Jazz, Soul, & World Music influences (not all at once, of course, that would be silly !!)
Trucks has a very distinctive style of playing, and this is a good live album.

What he said about influences: http://www.allmusic.com/album/live-at-ge...0000470485 << Mr. Trucks has had 4 albums since, all 4 stars...and let's not forget his work with his wife, Susan Tedeschi, a major player in her own right.
