[southern rock] (1995) Gov't Mule - Gov't Mule [FLAC] [DarkAngie]

    Gov't Mule - Gov't Mule (1995)

Review:
While still in The Allman Brothers Band, Warren Haynes and Allen Woody teamed up with drummer Matt Abts to fullfill their dream of a powertrio. There are some tunes here written by the band and a few covers ,most notably Mr Big by Free, an heavy bluesrock-band from the seventies. The music on this album is exactly that: heavy bluesrock with a few suprises like the acoustic Doplhineus and the Coltrane-tribute simply called Trane, wish is the jazziest, jammiest song on this album. All the songs on this album find their way in the liveset of the Mule, where some songs can stretch out, like the Allman Brothers like to stretch out songs to. The music is played almost live entirely, with only some guitarparts and some vocals overdubbed. The production and overall sound is heavy, with only Dolphineus a moment of rest. Left Coast Groovies has some funk/fusion elements, as it is a tribute to Frank Zappa. Gov't Mule will enhance their sound and leave the bluesrock behind and focus on more jamrock with (especially on Dose) some jazzrock-elements. But here on their debut, they sound like a fullblown heavy bluesrock band. Heavier than Allman Brothers. A great debut. — jazzmusicarchives
