Taj Mahal, Jerry Douglas & Jaimoe Guest With Tedeschi Trucks Band

Last night the Tedeschi Trucks Band kicked off a four-show run at NYC’s Beacon Theatre that continues tonight and then again with a pair of additional performances on Friday, September 26 and Saturday, September 27. Taj Mahal, Jerry Douglas and The Allman Brothers Band drummer Jaimoe each spent time on stage on Friday night as what promises to be a guest-filled run commenced.

Tedeschi Trucks Band began a cover-heavy set with a take on Traffic’s “Who Knows What Tomorrow May Bring.” Later Douglas, the run’s first guest, came out with his dobro for an acoustic-based segment that included “Idle Hands,” a cover of Led Belly’s “On A Monday” the TTB original “These Walls” as well as covers of “Done Somebody Wrong” and “Don’t Think Twice, It’s Alright.” Taj Mahal then joined the group for “Diving Duck Blues.” The action continued with Mahal and Jerry contributing to an electrified version of Taj’s “Everybody’s Got to Change Sometime.” Tedeschi Trucks Band originals “Bound For Glory” and “The Storm” brought the main set to a close. For the encore, the TTB were assisted by Taj Mahal, Jerry Douglas and Jaimoe for “Leavin’ Trunk” and Rollin’ And Tumblin’.”
