Tedeschi Trucks Band and Leon Russell’s Mad Dogs & Englishmen Revisited is a vibrant tribute to one of the most iconic live rock collaborations in music history. Originally led by Joe Cocker and the legendary keyboardist and bandleader Leon Russell in 1970, Mad Dogs & Englishmen was a raucous, soulful tour that brought together a massive ensemble of musicians. In September 2015, Tedeschi Trucks Band – helmed by guitar virtuoso Derek Trucks and powerhouse vocalist Susan Tedeschi – revived this landmark event, infusing it with their own blend of Southern soul, blues, and rock.
The historic, star-studded tribute concert took place at the LOCKN’ Festival 45 years after the original tour. That night, TTB’s 12-piece ensemble and Russell welcomed original Mad Dogs members, such as Rita Coolidge, Claudia Lennear, and Chris Stainton, along with a diverse group of special guests including Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes, Warren Haynes, Anders Osborne, and Dave Mason. The stage often swelled to over 20 musicians, echoing the original tour’s grand, communal spirit.
