IT
has been a long while since I reviewed one of my favourite bands from the USA,
Gov’t Mule. This is a very impressive package with 3CDs and a DVD of the entire
concert as well. This show was recorded on Halloween in Boston and it was only
the 2nd show with new bass player, Jörgen Carlsson. Basically, this
was the first time he had ever played any of these songs live and he does a
great job. The band really play a great first set with some standards from the
latest record like Brighter Days, Brand new Angel, and Child of the Earth. St
of the rest of the set is really jammed out stuff with a long jam in Game Face,
Trane-Eternity’s Breath- St. Stephen Jam and then ending the first set with the
great instrumental, Kind of Bird! The
next disc is what Warren states some of the bands favourite Pink Floyd tunes.
They actually managed to get two female singers who actually toured with Pink
Floyd and brought in a laser light show and Ron Hollaway on saxophone. So what do they play, it all focuses on 70s
Pink Floyd from Meddle to the Wall, including the full Shine on you Crazy
Diamond, One of these Days, a bit of Dark Side of the moon, and Comfortably
Numb. The encores include Million miles from yesterday and a long jammed out
Blind Man in the Dark. Amazing show..
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
