Not bad, just got it myself. Only had one listen while I was working on the computer. I like the Mule, but it's nothing different than most of their other stuff. Not saying that is bad, just right in line with what I expected.

Go see them live though, they put on a great show that is definitely worth the money.

I really like the Deep End, Vol. 1 - lots of good guest players on that. Still need to get vol. 2. A couple of my favorites on there are "Down & Out In New York City" with Flea and "Effigy" with Mike Watt.

Honestly though, if you are looking to fill out your collection, it's hard to make a bad choice with any of their albums (OK, CDs - maybe I'm showing my age!)

I'm going to pick this up today for sure (along with Yonder Mountain String Band's - Mtn. Tracks Vol. 3)!! Deep End Vol. I&II are both great!! Soulshine, although overplayed, is a fabulous song. Also check out the DVD, "Rising Low" that was filmed and produced by mike Gordon of Phish.

I'm not a huge fan of old school sounding rock... but GOv't mule is tight, no question bout that.

With regard to the dude that said he was into YMSB... have you caught the acoustic planet tour yet? If not you should! Keller, YMSB, and Bella. Non stop music and jamming, no set breaks etc etc... whenone of the bands needs a break another band will come out and jam with them and eventually the band that needs a break just files out and its the other bands show from that point forth.

I have not been able to see the Acoustic Planet Tour, although I have seen Bela', YMSB and Keller all on seperate occasions. In fact, I"ll be seeing them all seperately over the next 3 months! :thumb:
