Brutal / Wonderful, January 18, 2006
This is my favorite Mule album. Hard to find, don't know where I got it. Best sound of all the Mule albums, sharply defined in a medium sized concert space. The bass oh the bass!
Anyway, the music is also wonderful. My favorite is the first cut, "Trane". John McLaughlin fans take note: in the middle of Trane, Warren quotes Eternity's Breath from the Mahavishnu Orchestra's Visions of the Emerald Beyond NOTE FOR NOTE.
It really is overwhelming when that breaks out.
Explosive playing, no dross.
Buy this album!

The way rock oath to be........., January 24, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Live at Roseland Ballroom (Audio CD)
For me this is Gov't Mule best record. Hard rocking blues with a twist of jazz. This is very raw and straight forward and I know they don't make records like this way anymore. Only the Mule could and play this kind of music that other bands dare not to trend. My favorite is "Trane" ala Mahavishnu style with more blues put in it. All the numbers in this record is an "A". I would consider this a collector's piece. It's the next best thing seeing the band live. Warren Haynes, Allen Woody and Mat Abtts, these guys know what they're doing and they are doin it good.

The Mule Delivers!, March 3, 2004
This review is from: Live at Roseland Ballroom (Audio CD)
Live at Roseland Ballroom is yet another excellent example of the musical prowess of Gov't Mule. As usual, Warren, Allen, and Matt each bring their best to the table, which leads to one amazing CD. The tracks flow incredibly as the band continues to outdo itself as the album goes on. A loose, jammy feel permeates the CD and results in an extremely enjoyable listening experience. Like one of the other reviewers said, if you can actually find the damn thing, buy it!!! And check out more Gov't Mule!
