Derek Trucks Band, ALREADY FREE, 180G BLUE & WHITE COLORED VINYL, LOW #’D LTD ED

The Derek Trucks Band have been issuing records (live and studio) that are long on fire, improvisation, and inspiration. Trucks’ own skillful leadership has seamlessly melded Rock, Blues, Jazz, and Eastern Indian modal music in a brew that is uniquely his own. Already Free (2009) is an exception to the rule. Trucks himself stated that the album has a different feeling compared to their other works because in the past, he always felt pressure to make a “guitar album”. The difference, he maintains, is that the band has had more time to mature, and the album’s sound is more balanced between the different contributions of its members, who developed its overall effect as they arranged the songs that were recorded for this album. The album has received very positive reviews, and debuted at #19 on the Billboard Top 200 reached #1 on the Blues chart, #1 on the Internet chart, and #4 on the Rock chart. This marks the band’s highest debut on the Billboard Top 200 chart to date. The album won the 2010 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album, marking the band’s first Grammy award.
