Favorite Cover Songs

[DAA]

Seen The Mule six or seven times. They do a ton of covers, everything from the Beatles to Allman Bros, but a lot of Rock and Roll Originals too. I'm pretty sure that sometimes even they don't know exactly where a song is going to go, or how long it's going to last when they start it. Sometimes you'll see Matt Abts start going somewhere and the whole band will turn to look then scramble to catch up and no telling where it goes from there. Awesome jam band. Saw them jam this one for 20 minutes once. And it was 20 minutes of awesome. This take is only like 12 minutes .

I have seen Mule many times. Matt Abts is one of my all time favorite drummers, I miss Andy Hess on Bass though. Have you listened to their live Dark Side of the Moon? Saw The Allman Bros a few times too, one of the best was "Come on into my kicthen" with Greg and Warren acoustic at Red Rocks in 06'.

Heck yes. Dark Side of The Mule! In my regular rotation.

I miss Allen Woody on bass RIP... Live from Roseland still one of my all times.

And yup, Dave Matthews jamming with them. They jam with damn near anybody.

My 9 year old daughter has discovered my old guitar and showing real interest lately. We just watched this together in awe and started to jam. I think I watched this flip a switch in her brain

About Dark Side of The Mule...

They have been playing Pink Floyd stuff forever. I am still pissed that I missed a show in Park City 18 years ago. They played a bar, one night, appeared as "Pink Mule", original 3 man lineup, and did nothing but Floyd covers. I had insider info of what was up, from a friend from my bad old days before I went legit and started paying taxes and stuff, and wanted to go bad, but, had way more important stuff to do that particular night. Like, my daughter was being born .

Did someone post this one yet? Freakin love this version.

Disturbed and FFP have made name for themselves with cover songs. I like most of them as much or more than the original songs. It is interesting to see their take on how the lyrics apply to today's world in video.

I am a big Metallica Head, but freaking lzzy Hale really sang the crap out of this one! One of my favorite live bands as well

And then there is lzzy singing a forbidden cover, but she still delivers.

Became a big fan of Halestorm when they opened for Eric Church a few years back.

Lexington Lab Band does great covers!

 

[I Lean]

This is a little different from a "typical" cover song. It's just piano, but this girl kills it!

Those two are amazing! I've watched a few live concerts on tv but missed them when they were here.

Along the same lines as Rodrigo y Gabriela..

These guys are like the Lexington Lab Band. Anything they do is done with incredible musicianship. This one features Paul Gilbert (the guy in the tie) who was with Racer X and Mr. Big.
