Someone turned me on to this one. My goosebumps have goosebumps hearing this stuff. Simon Phillipshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rxYw7Y45EoVinnie Colaiutahttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drAv2FoYji8
Where can you go from here? Two monsters. Saw that cast of Beck's a few years back, in a great room - Mesa Arts Center. What a show!
So many great players and types of music to have just one influence, for me. Strangely, no one's mentioned Dennis Wilson. :-)

Ha, haaaaa!! That's my fav Dennis, too. The Niacin stuff is killer and I love his playing with Howe and Wooten. Another monster!! (How many monsters are there?)
Thank you, Longjohn!

As I stated in my previous post here, I'm a BIG fan of Matt Abts. It took me a while to figure this one out too. I've been listening to Gov't Mule for years and still can't duplicate some of Matt's grooves. Anyway, I'll try to show where he drops the kick in below.

He also drops the kick in on the 1-e and the 1-& throughout.
My band has been working on Thorazine Shuffle lately...I've almost got it.

Oh man, Mike, Lynn, did you scratch an itch with that one! I LOVE Gov't Mule!
Gotta get one of those "Got Mule?" T-shirts.
The first time I heard Warren play was when he was standing opposite Dickie Betts in the Allman Bros. Band in the 90's. I saw the Bros, at a show they performed at the Beacon Theater in NYC and Warren's guitar playing knocked me on my a$$. As soon as he left the Bros. and started working with Gov't Mule full-time, I caught them anytime they were playing the city. I've been to four Mule shows and had a complete blast each and every time. I don't think that band is capable of having a bad night.
The groove in the tune you posted reminds me of the groove (albeit much simpler and straighter,) on Freddy King's, monster Classic, 'Going Down.' My band used to open the first set of every gig we played with 'Going Down.' It's a hard driving groove that gets the people on their feet right away. As a drummer, this is one of the most fun tunes you can play. You get to push the band from behind and it really makes you feel like you're in the driver's seat. When the band gets it just right, it's like a freight train coming through doing 90. Heavy...
Here's a couple of versions: CRANK THE VOLUME! Meant to played LOUD>
