Any Derek Trucks Band fans?

Although I'm generally not that into blues I've recently purchased 2 CDs by this band and enjoy them quite a bit. I find them to be somewhat eclectic in that there seems to be diverse influences. Anyone care to post some opinions or observations on this group? Favorite titles?

Saw Trucks live as he opened for Santana. I have most of his disks now and love them all. Funny thing, I kept feeling I was watching Duane Almond as they played, that distinctive guitar sound just brought me back. I later discovered Derek was the guitar player for Almond Brothers Band, go figure...

Hey look into Derek's wife too, My favorite Susan Tedeschi, the best blues woman since Janis!
