Tedeschi Trucks Band<\/a> made their way to Morrison, CO\u2019s Red Rocks Amphitheatre for marquee shows on Friday, July 31 and Saturday, August 1, after Susan Tedeschi cancelled a pair of festival stops due to appendix surgery a few weeks earlier. Lukas Nelson opened both nights and the guitarist honored Jerry Garcia on his birthday Saturday by performing \u201cAlthea\u201d for the first time with his current solo combo.<\/p>\nThe evening\u2019s headliners kicked off Friday\u2019s show with a pair of Sly & the Family Stone favorites, segueing from \u201cYou Can Make It If You Try\u201d into \u201cEveryday People.\u201d In addition to their own modern classics and trademark mix of covers, the outfit prominently nodded to Derek Trucks\u2019 time in The Allman Brothers Band, offering up \u201cCome and Go Blues\u201d and \u201cDreams\u201d as well as a bit of \u201cMountain Jam\u201d during their original \u201cPasaquan.\u201d<\/p>\n
As luck would have it, The Black Crowes were enjoying a day off in the Denver area between gigs in Riverside, MO and Colorado Springs, CO. And, at the end of their set, TTB invited out their old friend Chris Robinson and his current Black Crowes guitarist Nico Bereciartua for a take on Matthew Moore\u2019s \u201cSpace Captain,\u201d which Joe Cocker famously performed on the Mad Dogs & Englishmen live album that TTB paid tribute to at LOCKN\u2019 with Robinson\u2019s help.<\/p>\n
The sit ins continued during TTB\u2019s encore, as Robinson and Bereciartua returned with Crowes keyboardist Erik Deutsch and their backup singers Mackenzie Adams and Leslie Grant for \u201cLoving Cup.\u201d (TTB started covering the Rolling Stones gem this year, and Crowes performed the classic a handful of times in the 2000s.) The members of The Black Crowes then remained on stage as the tune moved into Sleepy John Estes\u2019 \u201cLeaving Truck\u201d and Rahsaan Roland Kirk\u2019s \u201cVolunteered Slavery.\u201d<\/p>\n
The surprises continued during Tedeschi Trucks Band\u2019s show the following day. Partway through their set, the ensemble paired the ending portion of \u201cMountain Jam\u201d with the rest of \u201cPasaquan,\u201d completing the previous night\u2019s sequence. Trucks also picked up a Play V guitar and utilized it on a cover of Blind Joe Reynolds\u2019 \u201cOutside Woman Blues\u201d while the Allmans tunes continued with \u201cStand Back.\u201d After Nelson offered \u201cAlthea\u201d during his show, TTB honored Garcia the same night with their take on his enduring Robert Hunter collaboration \u201cSugaree.\u201d Finally, during Tedeschi Trucks Band\u2019s encore, they brought Nelson back to the stage for Derek and the Dominos\u2019 \u201cWhy Does Love Got to Be So Sad?\u201d and a show-closing run through Joe Tex\u2019s \u201cShow Me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tedeschi Trucks Band will perform at Woodinville, WA\u2019s Chateau Ste.
