Warren is one of the more talented jammy jammers out there.

looking at the related vids on there, it seems after Woody died they're been right into the gloryhole era & grunge covers.
There's Pearl Jam, AIC and more....
These tracks with Warren singing contain lots of win... what a voice!

It makes sense though, given the political leanings of the songs/bands he's picking from. I would imagine he feels a kind of kinship with a lot of the grunge mentality. Plus it's not like he's playing the crap grunge; having looked at the related vids, he's gone with most of the most musical songs from that era.

They do kind of tend to fly in under a lot of people's radar.

they do.
I've been into them since high-school (1995).
My first band's guitarist was a big Allman Bros fan, and when the Allman's recruited Warren & Woody into the band, he found out about Gov't Mule.
He showed me, knowing i'd dig it because it's quite 'heavy' blues-rock.
I pretty much fell in love with them.
They got 'bigger' when their bassist Woody died, and suddenly all these big bass names jumped on the "i'm a fan" wagon and did this big-arse album.
Personally anything after Woody's death is a bit meh, except for these recent grunge things.
I'll post their albums in the FS section shortly for you Tom.
and here's some reading for you Tom

and & I've found boots of the grunge & Floyd tribute shows... oh yeah... i'll up 'em once they finish d/ling (slsk, so will be slow....)

this thread came about when I was looking for a youtube vid of "Dolphineus" from their debut, as I wanted to show you guys, as it's a beautiful song.
and here you go Tommy!

they became jammy i guess.
started out just doing their rad shit - longer versions, and got big on that circuit. then i guess those bands on those bills started asking them to join tours etc...
i'm not into jambands much, but I allow these guys in my collection.
