Warren Haynes has played solo, fronted Gov’t Mule and been a member of The Dead and The Allman Brothers. His site has information, including tour dates for Gov’t Mule. Here is a nicely done bio.

Here are links to his recent performance at the White House, Beautifully Broken, River’s Gonna Rise and Before the Bullets Fly. Railroad Boy is acoustic. Please let me know if I’ve missed anything good.

Reading Music

The stories of the great bands and musicians are fascinating. Musicians as a group are brilliant, but often troubled. The combination of creativity and drama makes for great reading.

Here are some books to check out.

Duke Ellington brought class, sophistication and style to jazz which, until that point, was proudly unpolished and raucous. His story is profound. The author, Terry Teachout, also wrote "Pops," the acclaimed bio of Louis Armstrong. Click here or on the image.

The Grateful Dead don't get enough credit for the profound nature of its lyrics. Many of the band's songs are driven by a deep and literate Americana ("I'm Uncle Sam/That's who I am/Been hidin' out/In a rock and roll band" and "Majordomo Billy Bojangles/Sit down and have a drink with me/What's this about Alabama/Keeps comin' back to me?").

David Dodd's exhaustive study tells the story, song by song. Click here or on the image.
