Derek Trucks talks Allman Brothers and Bourbon with Fred Minnick


Nice chat. I've sipped a lot of bourbon with bandmates while Derek's music is spinning, so this was some nice synergy.
Not too many nuggets. Nice to hear they are mixing the Mad Dogs & Englishmen and Layla shows. Crazy to think they have kids going to college, still think of Derek as the kid in the room.

That was great. Thanks for the link.

Thanks so much for posting --- terrific! Don't think I've ever heard Derek so chatty. He certainly seemed to know more about bourbon than the interviewer knew about music.
I'm not a bourbon guy at all, but I would've liked to sample what they were having. For all you bourbon freaks, how special and / or rare was what they were drinking?

I'm not a bourbon expert (and didn't take notes of what they were drinking), but it sounded like it was the good stuff.
I wasn't sure what kind of chat this would be considering the focus, but it turns out Derek is always worth listening to. Might as well put him in the booth for MLB games.
