Layla Revisited: Tedeschi Trucks Band; 3LP/2CD sets

They've done a Derek & The Dominoes song almost every time I've seen them. Got the blue vinyl from Bull Moose.

 

More from Bobby Tis on Facebook:

it’s not technically AAA because the original multi-track recording was digital. But it was mixed all analog, mixes were printed to half-inch analog tape and assembled onto master reels. Those master reels that i assembled were then transferred directly from tape to vinyl and also back to digital at a ridiculously high sample/bit rate for the CD and Streaming formats.
This info is on the “hype sticker” on the vinyl.

 

Can’t wait for this. Honestly the only Clapton album I remotely care about anymore, and I’d rather listen to Derek & Trey than Eric anyday.

I hope they put out their Mad Dogs & Englishman show one day as well.

 

Apparently the Mad Dogs set was supposed to come out before the Layla, but there are apparently lots of rights issues that are complicating the release.

 

We multitracked the show to hi-res files with the intention of mixing and mastering 100% analogue. Chris Bellman cut the lacquers and Gary Salstrom did the metal work. I think you’ll all be very happy with it.

There will be plenty of exciting Maddogs stuff coming soon as well. Sit tight for that! It’ll be worth it.

So happy that the TTB crew care about sound and take the steps necessary for good sounding vinyl. Thanks much for the work and efforts!

 

Well, I'm glad at least they're considering it. Hopefully that gets worked out soon.

 

I saw the webcast and thought it was a stunning achievement. The Layla album is peerless and these guys breathed new life into it. I will be in for this release and echo the call for a blu ray but industry finances dictate that sadly this is unlikely.

 

Just ordered the black vinyl!

 

Preordered CDs

 

+1

 

Pre-ordered the blue vinyl edition from a German website. Most likely will get the 2cd version as well (someday) but vinyl edition has my priority. My favorite active band at the moment (together with Gov't Mule). Keeping my fingers crossed for a Mad Dogs & Englishmen release. Would definitely buy that as well.

 

From the link in the OP:

"Layla Revisited (Live at LOCKN’) will feature sleeve notes written by Derek Trucks himself, and the album concludes, as did the 1970 release, with Trucks and Tedeschi’s studio duet version of “Thorn Tree In The Garden.”"

 

Hopefully they will. I have an "unofficial" video of the entire set and both the video and audio are awesome.

 

Nice. Pretty impressive that Derek and Susan were also on the 1970 album since they weren't born yet!

 

Combining words and interpreting words always a challenge.

 

Wow, I had no idea about this. Just pre-ordered it. Thanks! Excited that the vinyl is being pressed at QRP, should be great.

 

Oh, the vinyl will be great, but the recording itself? It’s Layla, after all!

 

The Black vinyl is being pressed at QRP. All pressings are being done from mothers made by Gary at QRP.

The last side features a AAA studio performance of “Thorntree in the Garden” as well as a rehearsal recording of “I Am Yours” and an etching of a piece of art inspired by the same short story that the original Layla artwork was inspired by.

I agree. same on their live shows. I’ve noticed the sound is absolutely fantastic no matter the venue.

 

Excited for this, but it’s unfortunate a BluRay + multi-channel is not in the cards. I just re-watched the download from 2019, and everyone on stage is so exuberant, obviously having a great time.

 

Pre-ordered and very excited to be getting this. Amazing band.

 

I pre-ordered the Blue indie vinyl. But reading the above comment has me wondering if I should reconsider that. Doesn't QRP have a better reputation than Memphis for pressing vinyl?

 

Indeed it does. But the last two records i got from Craft which were pressed there were perfect. So you never know, but QRP does have the better reputation.
And, based on this, and release date, i did the same. I had an order in with Legacy for the blue colored vinyl but changed it to the black.
