Love the interaction between the bass player and Warren. The first solo is a tease, the outro solo delivers the goods then falls right back into the groove. This has been out for a few years but it's one of my faves.

Man, I dig Warren's fingerstyle playing.
That's a bit of a departure from his normal amp setup, no?

Phenomenal. Best band currently in activity by a large margin.

hmmm - hates the Dead - loves Gov't Mule.
They seem cut from the same cloth to me - sure the Mule rocks a bit more - but both grew from the Allman Bros./jam band scene.

Its more like the Allmans and Mule both grew from the Dead/jam band scene. But I know whatcha mean.
But the Mule rocks about a thousand times harder than the Dead. Its like they took the jam mentality of the Dead and blended it with an equal dose of Sabbath.

I can agree with that.

SLO and Diaz head have been his Gov't Mule rig forever now.

Interesting, I've never seen the Diaz. Sure sounds good! I feel like he used a different rig when I saw him with the Dead a few years back, maybe the SLO and a Fuchs?
