What makes some shows turn out to be special? Sometimes it’s the setlist, sometimes it’s the guests. But other times… what is it? Did Jaimoe eat a good breakfast? Did Warren put on an old pair of pants and find $25 he’d forgotten about in the pocket? Did Oteil get a good night’s sleep? Was Mars in Jupiter?
There was nothing really special, nothing out of the ordinary Saturday night, but it seemed to be one of those special nights. I don’t know why, but everything worked. From the first song, it seemed that there was a little extra zing, even though much of the evening the playing was a little laid back. Indeed the laid back confidence was part of what worked so well. And it was a blue evening; two Muddy Waters songs, two Howlin’ Wolf, plus “Preachin’ Blues” and “Not My Cross to Bear.” But if I over-analyze it, all I’ll do is spoil the magic.
Gregg jumps right in with his solo on “Don’t Want You No More,” electric, present. Derek pierces the night; Warren announces himself with clear, ringing stinging tone. On “Not My Cross to Bear” Warren skronks over Oteil’s walk, and plays lines sympathetic to Gregg’s vocals. Derek squeezes out the mojo; then Gregg’s road weary vocals over twin guitars. Together these two songs strike deep into the mother lode of what Allman Brothers music is all about; together they remain the perfect opener…
…and then right into “Can’t Lose What You Never Had,” which has been transformed fully from the cascading licks of the record to a very “Gilded Splinters” kind of vibe. Warren does an extended blues burn over the groovular riff.
Oteil lays a deft foundation for “Who’s Been Talkin’,” with Marc and the drummers. Derek enters, moving like a bee from flower to flower. Warren plays some ominous voodoo leading into the vocal section, then plays a low simmer. Derek solos, straining against the limits of the standard blues form; Warren seems to interrupt him with the song’s lick, but Derek stops on a dime, smiling at Oteil as Warren takes the band back into the song. Warren turns in toward Derek, sends him a signal with a small guitar flourish, then Warren and Derek go to town, but in a restrained way; Jaimoe is keeping steady easy time, right in the pocket. The music falls away to almost nothing, just soft drums… and… Warren… brings the band… to a close.
I love “Who’s Been Talkin.’”
Warren’s solo on “Come and Go Blues” hews close to the song; Derek shreds all over the place. There is no extended outro.
Next up is “Shake for Me,” the Howlin’ Wolf song that has an Allmans connection owing to Duane’s appearance on John Hammond’s cover. Warren strums the riff as Derek goes briefly off script; then vocals. It is a different song than it had been opening night with Hubert Sumlin, who had kept it grounded in the early 60s. Warren shakes it, then back to the vocals, then Derek spins out a line that shape-shifts the song into a spacey one-chord guitar dance. Warren locks down the rhythm, Derek embarks on a furious slide run, climaxing in the band turning back over into the I-IV-V blues again, while Derek just keeps on tearing up over the top. A highlight; killer.
Next up is the set piece, “Desdemona.” In his solo, Derek plays a full chunk of “My Favorite Things” (which is always just out of reach on the instrumental mid-section) right in the middle of his ultra-violet solo. Then he chang
