yet another testimonial to Little Feat and the incredible song writing of Lowell George.. Little Feat truly are musicians and critics favorites and knowledgeable music fans too. Warren's voice is perfect for Spanish Moon.
Got to see Little Feat in mid-70's, one of those concerts you never forget (Lowell George was a genius!). No better band to cover this tune than Warren Haynes & Gov't Mule, best version I've heard since the original!🤟
Envious. I've seen them twice (Toronto and East Stroudsburg, PA) but after Lowell's death. They still had every one else, including the great drummer Richie Hayward.
July 1976 Little Feat was the final “pre” band before The Rolling Stones, at Stuttgart, FRG. Lowell George was simply great, as was his band. Little Feat was a big production! Tower of Power horn section, around 12 people in the band, big and awesome!
Great Version/ Can,t go wrong with Warren's vocals and Sco man,s guitar mastery! I,ve been a fan of John,s since back.in the 70,s when he played with the Billy Cobham and George Duke band. I saw him with Miles Davis in 81, at the Kool Jazz festival!😊😊
Jams take music and technique to new places. Some guys are equipped to go there.... Some not! Mr. S is already there! Nice to hear different "takes" on a good old tune.
For real Classic on fire!! sco-mule!!!! Man Warren was there for all of us heads lost Jerry you know I was at Allman Brothers jam band man long before I was a deadhead Dickey Betts Warren Haynes rock the house but I've never seen John Scofield and it's got to got to happen before I die!!!
B.B. look like he love the sound he can make those strings sing all the way down to his souls approval. Once he found his style I do believe he and his soul drawed up a life long contract right there..
As a big Feat fan AND a Sco (spends most of his time in Jazz genres) fan, this is truly great and the tune was well and truly ‘Sco’d’. However, if you’re a straight rock ‘n’ roll fan, you’re probably not going to get it 🤷♂️
This is exactly why real jazz players such as Scofield think they can play anything but in the process of jazz scholarship have lost the FEEL for "simpler" styles such as funk, New Orleans style in this instance... just check his rhythm comping against the original.
You have no clue what you’re talking about. Check out his “Steady Groovin’ - Live at The Blue Note” record and tell me he can’t play over a New Orleans style... Sco is one of the baddest mf’ers in the business. Also, this rhythm section blows donkey in this clip to be honest.
Steve yes. John's a cool player: never once over 4min plays "behind" the beat like real second line vets like Lowell, Dr. John. Billy Gibbons some too. Listen to Hey Nineteen Dan solos down in that "pocket"
It sounds to me more like the rhythm section dropped the ball on this one. The bass player has no sense of this song's pocket, and the drumming right along with him. I would hate to play this song with what they're doing.
Yea, bass and drums just really don't seem to get it here. Hate to be critical--- I always try to be charitable with musicians in general, especially in a live context. But it just totally flew over their heads on this one.
@@devindevine6887 At the beginning playing the beat solo, it seemed fine. But as soon as the bass came in, it's like it infected the drumming too for ever after.
I don't know this fellow Schofield, but for me, a lover of Little Feat, he ruined the song . Way too long a solo that had little connection to the song. He should have taken a minute and passed it over.
@@robertespenschied8339 Does a jam band get a free pass to make a mess of things? To even make bad music, sir? I do not even geive the Grateful Dead a pass! Because they made some baad music along with unforgettable gems. A jam still needs to meet some standards.
Nah, the bass and drums ruined this song, unfortunately. Nobody else had a chance, playing on top of that absolutely flat, grooveless, pocketless beat.

NICE, two of my favorite guitarists doing my favorite bands favorite song! 🤩😍

I saw Little Feat when they opened for Van Morrison. I came away more impressed w/Little Feat. They blew the house away.
Envious. I've seen them twice (Toronto and East Stroudsburg, PA) but after Lowell's death. They still had every one else, including the great drummer Richie Hayward.
Good music is rare nowadays.....this is special!
Gov Mule is without question the best cover band I have ever seen. Also one of the best originals bands I have ever seen!
hard to disagree with that statement
They are so good, they cover their own original material and it sounds amazing.
Well put.
the Radiators are my favorite, but anything that Warren covers turns to gold!
You know. If the Mule covers your song. It’s not your song anymore.
On a telecaster, love old John like this…very soulful with some nice surprises here and there..
Ah now, this is so good, a classic song.

I can’t even imagine how good that sounded! There has never been a better combination of rock and brass section

Awesome cover of Spanish Moon!! No body does like Gov't Mule!!
awesome rendition!!
thanks guys!
Awesome so.o by John. Great vocals, great song by Lowell George
I was here!!! Mind melting night all around!!!
Fantastic cover, thanks guys.

"Ladies n' Gentlemen, lets hear it for Warren Haynes assisting on the cowbell!"...;)
Scofield is a living legend on the guitar
Don’t see how much better it would be in Life!! ✌🏻❤️🎼🎼🎼🎼

Highly deserved props to Lowell George and Little Feat... that said... who else, but Gov't Mule, has the balls to cover it? Great version, IMHO.
The Good Old Orpheum Theater ! Best Acoustics in BOSTON !

I was at this show I got it and then some. One of the best collaborations I’ve witnessed.
Love this, your toes can't stay still.
good cover
Saucy, smoky, just right.
Jazz everywhere...with Sco
Matt looks at him like, "I'm the drummer, I know how to keep it slow"
Jus' doot. . !👍👍
18 people lost it all down at the Spanish Moon.
What a great solo from ScoFo....
Scofield let it rip!
There is no Moon without Lowell
Or without Hayward and Gradney, apparently.
I paid to stop commercials in middle of jams , why an I getting it on , tv not phone
Scofield kills it
John,s solo was funky fantastic!😉
My professors and my Brother The Keyboard
A Bar Name.
Now what I need to know is who owns a trombonetrumpet like the guy in this band ?
And the crowd had no clue
No one does guitar-face like John Scofield!....Maybe that's a good thing.
Scoldy means business here in your face guitar playing
Go Joe on Vintage...
FEAT!
WOW!!!!
Scofield gets down ..........................!! amen Yay
👍
Who's gonna play keys on this?
Danny: Me
Who's gonna play the horn lines?
Danny: Also ME!
Trompet or Trumptbone?
good question...I was wondering what that was....
Damn Sco does Albert King.
...zonas...
Niin voisko sanoo Suomessa ollaan ihan viidakossa .Tommisia äijä ei oo ihan joka planeetalla upee jäbä oot ja se pitää hyvästä soittajasta
✌💞
Pretty hard to match a full brass section, not bad though.
Joe Cocker should have done this song.

Check out Uberjam, among others eg Still Warm. JS is a master of many styles, not just pure jazz.

I don't think that rhythm section is qualified to do this song.
Can count the number of rhythm sections that are qualified on one hand and have a finger or two left over. Richie,Kenny and Sam were fucking beasts.
Yea, bass and drums just really don't seem to get it here. Hate to be critical--- I always try to be charitable with musicians in general, especially in a live context. But it just totally flew over their heads on this one.
Fair. The bassline is just a loop.
Good. But It doesn’t have the same funk. Miss Lowell
Ok that was the worst version I ever heard. No deep groove like the Feat.
Doesn’t groove like the original I’m afraid. Stick to what you know!
The bass and drums are totally missing the pocket.. kind of weird considering Haynes’s reputation, too. Would think he’d be more on it.
@@devindevine6887 off night for those guys for sure. Always going to be some off nights sadly (no matter who or what band).

No way at all he ruined it, this is a jam band sir! Long jams are what they do. They stretch out and have fun playing, and play as long as they like.
