April 23, 2011 By GuitarDaddy

Derek Trucks provides an education in the BLUES.

He first picked up the guitar in 1988 when he was only nine years old. Instead of focusing on hard rock or metal (like most aspiring guitar players who were also born during the late 70’s), Derek studied the music of blues greats like Albert, B.B. and Freddie King…
