Gov't Mule has been lumped into the jam band category, but their music is hardly just noodling solos, half-a*sed melodies and nonsense lyrics. Their albums are cohesive, SOLID, INTENSE, GREAT SONGS! A little jazz influence, too, of course. And they do like to solo--hey, it's Warren Haynes with the Allman Brothers, after all--but their material, along with the Black Crowes' latest offerings, is heads and shoulders above ANY hard/southern/blues rock band out there today. For a long time I avoided Gov't Mule because I thought they were just a jam band with long, boring, jazzy songs. Boy, was I wrong! DEAD wrong! Get ALL of Gov't Mule albums if you like Skynyrd, the Allmans, Led Zeppelin, Blackfoot, the Black Crowes....you will be KICKING yourself for not discovering this band years ago!!

The only album of theirs I DON'T recommend is their latest--Mighty High. It's nothing but boring, industrial-ish reggae. If you like that kind of music, then fine, you'll probably like it. For me, it was a waste of money. I just hope their next effort is back to the blues rock that they are best known for.

Find the 3-disc version of this release if you can. Two CDs and one very long concert DVD! What a deal!!

THIS IS NOT A REVIEW! BUT A NOTICE TO THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW. THE SAMPLES ARE NOT OF GOV'T MULE. AMAZON HAS THE WRONG ARTIST (SOMEONE NAMED GELMAN?) PLEASE REMOVE THESE SONG SAMPLES.

This has got to be one of the finest live performances of Gov't Mule. In every track, both audio and DVD, Warren Haynes delivers BIG. He certainly is one of our very best rock-blues guitarists/composers and in every instace he is accompanied by world class instrumentalists. AND it's great value for money -- over 6 hours of music!

It should be mentioned that the import version DVD is regional and will not play on DVD players in the US. I give the 2 Cd set by the mule 5 stars and Amazon a 0 for not alerting US customers the DVD will not play.

Great 2 CD, 1 DVD set. Gov't Mule is one of the best Rock and Roll bands of this age, and this is some of the best evidence of this fact.

Am I crazy, or are the samples on this page NOT Govt Mule? Im gave it 4 stars because it made me put a star rating on, but that cant be G Mule. to hear correct samples listen to the mp3 samples

I wish I had read the reviews and seen that the DVD won't play on US DVD players. The seller and Amazon specifically omits this key piece of information and therefore is misrepresenting the product. Additionally, the CD case arrived smashed and cracked. At least the CDs play and the music is great, I just wish I could see the concert.

The songs listed above here are NOT on the Deepest End! I don't think they are even by Gov't Mule. Never heard of these songs. If you are looking for The Deepest End, Live in Concert, don't choose this selection just in case....

Teriffie seller, gread prices and service. Many outstanding artists perform with Gov't Mule on this CD. Great jam sessions- an outstanding performance by all.
