Gov't Mule Gov't Mule | CM The Roxy - Atlanta, Georgia 02.27.98

Gov't Mule - Classic Mule
The Roxy – Atlanta, GA
02/27/98 Dose CD release party

Let's step back into Mule history: DOSE, the finest Gov't Mule studio CD up until that point, had been released three days prior. This was it's coming out party. Atlanta was considered home to the Mule, not physically but spiritually and 1,900 fine souls were there to be saved on this historical night. So the stage is set.

Warren steps up to the microphone and thanks everybody and tells the crowd that Mule would be playing DOSE in its entirety and then taking a break and the second set would feature a lot of guests and that if anyone left, it would be their own fault for missing out.

Matt Abts is so amazing. His work on Thorazine Shuffle is brilliant. He and Woody do a dance on this song that is so hot. Warren's sweet licks on Towering Fool are indescribable. This was my first time seeing Woody play the new axe with the bass/mandolin combo. It's great to see him play that monster. The She Said She Said > Tomorrow Never Knows jam was a religious experience; a major musical expedition.

The second set was another mind blower. But what happened next was the most awesome God spirit jamming I have ever heard.

What an ASS kicking all-star jam. Put Chuck Leavell, David Schools, Jo-Jo Hermann, Derek Trucks and Jimmy Herring on stage with the Mule boys and one would expect fireworks to go off. And do they ever!

Gov't Mule and long time Mule archivist Jim Baadshaug presents the first of what we hope will be many Classic Mule Tracks.

There is a slight pop on a microphone line going into the drums at the beginning of Thorazine Shuffle. It causes slight distortion for a short period of time before it is corrected by the sound engineer.

CM Mama Kin's - Boston, MA 09.18.98

Gov't Mule Mama Kin's 09.18.98 Boston, MA "28 years ago tonight..." and Warren stops mid sentence, you are here on a very special night. 28 years ago to the day Jimi Hendrix died. Gov't Mule and long time Mule archivist Jim Baadshaug present the first of what will be many Classic Mule Tracks. According to sources, Allen Woody had made statements to several fans that he was going to personally kick their asses. He obviously knew what was about to happen. An understatement for sure. WHAT AN EXTRAORDINARY SHOW. This one is sure to go down as one of the greatest Mule shows ever. It wasn't just the song selection that gets you. The Hendrix tunes were played with fire and a tremendous amount of soul and love, but the whole show just dripped with intensity. Best Guitar Solo, Little Wing. Absolutely gorgeous. Melodic and rhythmic, perfectly played and phrased...it was a thing of beauty. Best Bass Song: Trane. Allen was playing bass faster than Warren was playing lead. At one point during Trane I swear Warren and Allen were headbanging just like a metal band! Best Song Overall: I think this one goes to Left Coast Groovies. The Hendrix tunes were very soulful, but as far as BAND songs they weren't as compelling. Left Coast Groovies was tight sounding after listening to all the 12 bar blues. It was the perfect counterpoint. It absolutely smoked. What's the difference between FLAC and MP3? Click here to check it out. We recommend reading up on the file formats before making your purchase.

Vic Theater - Chicago, IL 04.15.00

Gov't Mule - Classic Mule Vic Theater 04.15.00 Vic Theater - Chicago, IL Classic Mule Tracks returns with the thunderous Allen Woody driven roar of 04.15.00 from the Vic Theatre in Chicago, IL. Wandering Child, Lay Your Burden Down, Bad Little Doggie & Left Coast Groovies starts off the show and a spoken word performance by Brodie Hutchinson (Mule's Old Soundman) of Earache in My Eye leads into a run of Madman Across The Water, Life Before Insanity, War Pigs, Lucky and Dazed In Confused to close out the evening. Almost better than the start and the finish is the middle. This is truly a special show from the Woody era that the old school fans would appreciate. What's the difference between FLAC and MP3?

Birch Hill in NJ 06.02.95

Gov't Mule Birch Hill Old Bridge, New Jersey 06.02.95 The early days of the Mule is a favorite time period of any old school Gov't Mule fan. Up until this point with Classic Mule Tracks the earliest we have gone back is the beginning of 1998. Well here we have two shows, one from 1994, one from 1995, both from The Birch Hill in NJ. This is the trio in its early years, six months apart. A very special release indeed. June of 1995, a year into the new band brings the Mule back to the Birch Hill in Old Bridge, NJ. A memorable venue to those who remember it. Packed away from the jersey highway by about a third mile down a dirt road. An almost perfect place for the Mule to unleash 90 minutes of fury on a somewhat suspecting audience. This classic Mule Tracks release is just what you think it would be. The power-trio at its finest. From the opening of Mule to the encore of Look on Yonder Wall, this show is a perfect time capsule for Gov't Mule in 1995. What's the difference between FLAC and MP3?
