Product Description
Contents: [UHQCD] This new album from the Tedeschi Trucks Band, their first in three years, is a tribute live recording from 2015, recreating the soulful 1970 tour, "Mad Dogs & Englishmen," led by Joe Cocker and legendary keyboardist/bandleader Leon Russell with a large ensemble of musicians. This is the second "Revisited Live" album, following the hugely successful 2021 release, "Layla Revisited." In 2015, the Tedeschi Trucks Band, led by guitar virtuoso Derek Trucks and powerful vocalist Susan Tedeschi, revived this groundbreaking event, infusing it with their own unique blend of Southern soul, blues, and rock. Featuring Leon Russell, who also participated in Joe Cocker's original, this album is a vibrant tribute to one of the most iconic live-rock collaborations in music history. The 2015 reunion concert at Rock 'n' Festival featured not only the 12-piece TTB ensemble, but also original Mad Dogs members Rita Coolidge, Chris Stainton, and Claudia Renier, as well as a diverse array of contemporary collaborators including Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes, Warren Haynes, Anders Osborne, and Dave Mason. The stage often swelled to more than 20 musicians, recreating the grand and communal spirit of the original tour.
