Derek Trucks — Already Free
Check out Jambase.com’s piece on Derek Trucks and his upcoming album, Already Free:
One of the most critically acclaimed guitarists and the youngest musician to be named in Rolling Stone‘s list of the Top Hundred Guitarists of All Time, Derek Trucks has completed his much anticipated sixth studio album with The Derek Trucks Band, Already Free, available January 13, 2009. As well, the album’s first single, a stirring cover of Bob Dylan and The Band’s “Down in the Flood” from the album The Basement Tapes, was just released.
The album was self-produced by Trucks and recorded in his Jacksonville, Florida home studio. Nearly a year in the making and brimming with a newfound focus on creating original material, Already Free is the band’s natural evolution as they move forward integrating influences that span a variety of musical genres. Known for their blues roots, the group takes this album well beyond blues to incorporate the larger sounds of rock & soul. (more…)

Jack Bruce of Cream — “Zeppelin, you’re crap…”
We’re not sure if he was joking or if he was drunk or both, but Jack Bruce had some rather insulting words for Led Zeppelin. Classic Rock Magazine reports:
“Well, the trouble is that I’m doing so many amazing things on my own. Cream is just a band from many, many years ago, and we did do something [referring to the reunion shows in 2005]… (more…)
Remembering Mitch Mitchell
Jimi Hendrix Experience drummer Mitch Mitchell was found dead in a Portland, Oregon hotel this morning at the age of 62. Early reports indicate he died due to natural causes. Raised in London as John Mitchell, he and bassist Noel Redding comprised Jimi Hendrix’s rhythm section from 1966 until 1969, with Mitchell joining the guitar great on all three Experience albums — Are You Experienced?, Axis: Bold As Love and Electric Ladyland — as well as legendary performances at the Isle of Wight and Woodstock. Mitchell also played in the Dirty Mac with John Lennon, Eric Clapton and Keith Richards for The Rolling Stones Rock & Roll Circus. (more…)
