Tedeschi Trucks Band: Midnight In Harlem, Live with Oteil Burbridge
Oteil Burbridge lays down one tasty groove behind Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi in this live performance of “Midnight in Harlem”, recorded at the 2010 Crossroads Guitar Festival at Toyota Park in Bridgeview, IL. This tune was written by Tedeschi Trucks Band vocalist Mike Matteson.
Kevin sent this to me, and I’ve lost count on how many times I’ve watched it. Bet you’ll watch it more than once too.
Sure thats Oteil and not Kofi?
Both! Oteil on bass, Kofi on keys.
Kris,do you play bass? haha! Just teasing with you bro…you know a bass site isn’t gonna make too many big mistakes like that…not that it can’t happen though.That is indeed Oteil on bass! :-) Again,I’m just teasing bro! Peace!
This is such a beautiful song and performance. And YES, I have lost count on the amount of times I have hit the replay button…so beautiful. Mr. Brown, you are so RIGHT that is one TASTY groove.
Very nice tune… Sweet voice, amazing voice, great guitar solo, and the bass made me think of “What’s going on”…
I guess I’ll play it more than once… ;)
is that the guitar player from the allman brothers on there new stuff?
yep, I’m up to about 127 plays now.. ‘course I was an Allman Bros fan since… & my band has been covering Susan’s ‘Just Won’t Burn’ for a while now…
Love Love Love this!
I had no idea that Oteil ever played anything less than 6-strings…. Love It!
amazing….Oteil….Susan….Derek….the band….I am flattened out!
I want to play with this band.
il sonne tellement Oteil avec sa Road Worn Mexicaine…
This is MUSIC. Lovely!
Beautiful…
My favorite live version of any TTB song. Brings me to tears.
It’s really fantastatic bass playing by Oteil and I did a transcription of it two years ago for a lesson about so-called line-clichés (which describes the underlying chord-structure of the tune). You can find the transcription here:
