Tedeschi Trucks Band Release “Mad Dogs & Englishmen Revisited” Featuring Tim Lefebvre, Leon Russell, and More
In 2015, Tedeschi Trucks Band unleashed one of their most epic performances of their career. The band teamed up with Leon Russell to put on a star-studded tribute to the Joe Cocker album Mad Dogs & Englishmen, which Russell produced. Now, 10 years later, the group has released their performance as an album called
“The historic, star-studded tribute concert took place at the Virginia-based LOCKN’ Festival 45 years after the original tour,” a press release explains. “That night, TTB’s 12-piece ensemble and Russell welcomed original Mad Dogs members, such as Rita Coolidge, Claudia Lennear, and Chris Stainton, along with a diverse group of special guests including Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes, Warren Haynes, Anders Osborne, and Dave Mason. The stage often swelled to over 20 musicians, echoing the original tour’s grand, communal spirit.”
Tedeschi Trucks Band is currently anchored by bass great Brandon Boone, but in 2015, it was Tim Lefebvre driving the groove. You can watch him in action with the video for their take on “With A Little Help From My Friends,” which features Chris Robinson, Dave Mason, and Doyle Bramhall II.
Mad Dogs & Englishmen Revisited (LIVE AT LOCKN’) is available now on CD, vinyl and as a digital download (Apple Music, and Amazon Music).
