Editorial Reviews
Warren Haynes continues to be one of the most lauded straight-ahead rock lead guitarists performing today. But with his latest album his superior vocals are also at the forefront. Haynes' bold and emotive delivery, shimmering with his smoky vibrato is not to be missed. The album features Ivan Neville on organ and background vocals, Ian McLagan on piano, Ruthie Foster on background vocals, George Porter Jr. on bass and Ron Holloway on saxophone. The album was recorded live in studio to capture all of the emotion, passion and spontaneity at Willie Nelson's Pedernales Studios on two-inch tape with vintage tube microphones. Beyond his solo work, Warren Haynes is also known as the front-man for GOV'T MULE and vocalist and guitarist for THE ALLMAN BROTHERS and THE DEAD.

This is an exceptional album - a great funky soul-drenched set wherein Warren celebrates the music that first turned him on as a young child. Don't expect the monstrous riffs of Gov't Mule (and most Muleheads wouldn't expect them from a solo album of Warren's anyway) but do dig the syncopated licks and fills and call and responses with the horns and keyboards that all coalesce into fantastic songs that pour from the speakers like honey on a hot day.

Those of us who are big fans of Warren Hanyes and Gov't Mule know how adventurous he is and have heard him do "soul" music before. But THIS is the real thing. THIS is the album Stax has been looking to release for a long time. All Haynes originals except for one cover, these songs groove and rock. The sound is tasteful and clean compared to the heavier sound of Gov't Mule yet there is ample room for exploration by both Warren on guitar and the rest of the band including the horns and the keys. Bassist George Porter Jr. holds down and incredible groove that the players weave in and out of with ease. And yet the songs are all beautifully crafted and give ample opportunity for Warren to display perhaps his greatest gift, his remarkably powerful and soul drenched vocals. Backup singers lend a feel of gospel, particularly on the album's highlight, the passionate "River's Gonna Rise." This is a tremendous album by a tremendous artist. Buy it.

Warren hits it out of the park with this nice 10 track effort. Funky, bluesy, roots-ish rock that hits on many levels. I've always loved Warren when he is solo with his acoustic guitar, but don't think I've ever heard him with a backing studio band behind him like this. It is a very solid and well produced recording - with not one "fwd" worthy track on it. On the other hand, it has many which would dutifully warrant a "repeat" button.
Sometimes an album just works; this is one of those times. Thanks Warren. Love each and every track and expect these to "wear well"

Not even Warren Haynes can revive Mo-Town
Those of us who believe Warren Haynes can do no wrong have been proven wrong. Funk has turned sour and the even best cannot revive it. Read more
