DVD Reviews of Susan Tedeschi - Live from Austin, TX
DVD Review: Susan Tedeschi " Live from Austin, Texas"
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very good, soulful, "blues-oriented", guitar and band concert that was filmed June 17, 2003 on the "Austin City Limits" television show. The music is great, smooth, relaxing and very enjoyable to watch and hear. Susan Tedeschi and her band perform at their best.
The line-up consists of: Susan Tedeschi on lead guitar and lead vocals,(Susan is an excellent "blues" vocalist); Jason Crosby on keyboards, violin and vocals, William Green on B3 Hammond organ and vocals (His playing style is very unique, he moves with the music.),Ron Perry on bass and vocals, and Jeff Sipe on drums and vocals.
The concert consists of 15 songs. Some highlights include: "You can make it if you try" (A Sly Stone song); "The Feeling Music Brings" (written by her and her husband Derek Trucks along with Kofi Burbridge);"Love's in Need of Love Today" (A Stevie Wonder song); "Don't Think Twice,it's all Right"(a Bob Dylan song); "Voodoo Woman" (a Koko Taylor song); "In the Garden" (written by Susan along with Tommy Shannon of Double-Trouble); "I Fell in Love"(written by Susan and Tom Hambridge); and it ends with an excellent performance of an excellent song "Angel from Montgomery" (Written by John Prine).
This is a very good concert consisting of very good music that is performed very well. It's a very enjoyable concert dvd to watch and enjoy, and I recommend it.
DVD Review: Come and visit Holland, Susan!
Summary: 4 Stars
I saw and heard Susan for the first time performing on the DVD "Crossroads-2007". Immediately I fell for her voice and handling of lyrics. The DVD "Live from Austin-TX" brings me to tears, at certain moments. What a performer she is! Powerful as well as poetic, she captures my attention every time I put on this DVD. Supported by a great band, with unknown names to me, she offers the audience a program with a lot of choices. And when she starts to sing ballads like "Love's in need of love today" (a Stevie Wonder cover) or the self-written "Wrapped in the arms of another" (listen to the piano-part!!) she touches my heart and soul!DVD Review: Susan Tedeschi Live

Susan gives her music this force, this feeling which is very unique and heartfelt.DVD Review: A performer on the rise
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently saw Susan Tedeschi in performance with her 2006 band, and I bought this dvd to see how her show compared with what she did in the past.
Anybody with any familiarity with Tedeschi knows that her greatest asset is her voice. She has "pipes" that are the equal of Joss Stone's, or Beth Hart's, or anybody else working in a blues/r&b vein. She can handle almost any material with ease.
This set on "Live From Austin" shows her versatility, as she tackles funk ("You Can Make it if You Try"), folk ("Don't Think Twice"), blues, torch songs and rock and roll. The diverse material is particularly suited for (then) band member Jason Crosby, who contributes some tasty violin to "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright", and "Angel From Montgomery", as well as underscoring some of the funkier offerings with electric piano.
"Live From Austin" is a pleasing mix of Tedeschi's different styles. She is a very competent guitarist, but I share the opinion of another reviewer in that I think she could benefit from the addition of a second guitarist. This would free her up to concentrate more on her vocals and showmanship. On this dvd (and when I saw her this year), she relied on her flamboyant organist Wllliam Green to get the crowd going. With players like Green in tow, Susan will always provide a good to great show. All she needs to do is go further with what she began with at the time of this dvd's creation--- pump up the funk, maybe record with a horn section, keep covering the great old tunes along with her originals.
In summary: this dvd portrays a solid but shy performer with great vocal chops and good instincts for well chosen tunes to cover. It's a good dvd, but it should pale next to what she does in the future...if she makes the right choices.
DVD Review: A Great First DVD
Summary: 4 Stars
When I first saw that Susan had released a live recording, I was afraid to buy it in case she was not as good live as on her studio cds so I put it on my christmas list hoping Susan would deliver. My fear was totally unfounded and instantly disproved, this DVD is great from the first song to the Angel From Montgomery encore. Jason Crosby is great on piano and electric violin, and across the stage from him William Green plays Hammond b-3 looking like he's having a seziure. The rhythym section is great, Susan sings every song beautifully and her guitar is not in the same league as her husband, Derek Trucks, but if you've come to a Susan concert expecting mindblowing pyrotechnics you're in the wrong place to begin with (Try an Allman Brothers Concert Dummy) So if you're worried that Susan isn't the same live, stop worrying and buy this DVD. I still have not had the chance to see Susan live, so I don't know how this concert stacks up with her other live performances. Neither do I care. I still look forward to a live Susan Tedeschi show, but in the meantime this DVD will do fine.

Though the Austin City Limits series often spotlights Texas talent, this 2003 taping finds New England blueswoman Susan Tedeschi making herself right at home. Like Bonnie Raitt a few decades earlier, Tedeschi extends her musical inclinations beyond blues purism, sampling from the songbooks of Sly Stone ("You Can Make It If You Try"), Bob Dylan ("Don't Think Twice, It's All Right"), Stevie Wonder ("Love's in Need of Love Today"), and John Prine ("Angel from Montgomery," also a signature tune for Raitt) in addition to the more straightforward blues of Koko Taylor ("Voodoo Woman"). Though Tedeschi's stinging lead guitar provides the focus, she receives strong support from a band featuring the interplay of electric pianist Jason Crosby (who doubles on violin) and William Green on Hammond B-3 organ. Highlights include a tribute to jam-band inspiration Col. Bruce Hampton on "Hampmotized" and the simmering "Wait for Me," with its echoes of Aretha Franklin. Tedeschi has yet to show the suppleness as a vocalist to complement her guitar chops, but the musical range she displays here bodes well for her artistic development. --Don McLeese
