Biography

South African native Dave Matthews formed his band in Virginia in the early 1990s, gaining a large fan base with constant college tours. Although musically rooted in live performance, the band's acoustic rock is colored with jazz and world-music influences, making for a mix that's difficult to pin down.

The band began when lawyer Ross Hoffman met a shy songwriter called Dave Matthews and convinced… Read more in Amazon's Dave Matthews Band Store

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Produced by Rob Cavallo (Green Day, My Chemical Romance), Big Whiskey has been hailed by Rolling Stone as the group’s "heaviest album yet, both musically and emotionally," which went on to note: "Throughout, Carter Beauford beats out elaborate, propulsive groves; bassist Stefan Lessard lays down Flea-style funk bass lines; violinist Boyd Tinsley plays cresting, intense runs; and Matthews mirrors Moore’s saxophone lines with scatlike singing." Billboard, in a cover story on Dave Matthews Band, praised Big Whiskey as "its best album yet… Highlights include the funk-rock rave-up 'Shake Me Like a Monkey,' the stirring ballad 'Lying in the Hands of God,' the swampy rocker 'Alligator Pie (Cockadile),' radio-friendly fare like 'Why I Am,' which features playful horns over a solid rock riff and a hooky chorus, and 'Funny the Way It Is,' which parlays a subtle intro into a soaring, syncopated anthem."

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid album, June 3, 2009
By John Markle (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Big Whiskey And The GrooGrux King (2 LP) [Vinyl] (Vinyl)
Since all of my music is downloaded off Napster's subscription based program I was really drawn to buying the LP for two reasons. First, the Dave Matthews Band rarely comes out with LP's and if they do they are quickly impossible to get get a hold of a year or so later. Second, the album art is very unique and wanted it in a bigger form than a tiny CD case. One thing that concerned me (most likely because I do not typically buy Vinyl) was that I didn't know how they would include the album art from inside the CD with all the lyrics and such. Once I opened it I was pleased to find out that they had divided each side of the sleeve holding the record into four sections with the album art displayed and the lyrics on top just like in the regular CD booklet. They have a ultra edition of this with the records, CD/DVD, and more album artwork for $50 and as a big Dave fan I was really tempted to buy it but looking back I am glad I didn't since Dave's art style just isn't my taste and the majority of the DVD can be found legally on [...].
At the time of this review I bought this album at Best Buy for $ which I thought was an excellent price.

5.0 out of 5 stars My wife loved it!, July 7, 2009
By Thomas Carmichael (I love weed in Denver, CO) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Big Whiskey And The GrooGrux King (2 LP) [Vinyl] (Vinyl)
I ordered this LP along with the CD version of this album for my wife as one of her many surprises right before our wedding. She loves DMB, and loves the album, it is her first real LP, and I know it is special to her. I have been collecting vinyl since I was 4 years old and it is by far hte best medium for music ever devised, throw away your MP3 players and get a turntable, you can actually hear the Music, and the emotion inside the music!!!!!!!!! I'm not too much of a DMB fan, but the album is easy enough to listen to. All in all a great buy for the woman I love.
