One of the hardest-working men in show business (after, of course, James Brown), Warren Haynes spent the years preceding LIVE AT BONNAROO juggling gigs with the Dead, Phil Lesh & Friends, Gov't Mule, and the Allman Brothers Band. In 2004, Haynes went on the road as a member of the Dead, also pulling double-duty as an opening act with nothing but his guitar to accompany him. These 16 songs offer a sampling of those solo sets and a fascinating cross-section of material, reflecting the kind of impressive versatility that's allowed Haynes to move between the worlds of rock, blues, and country.
The combination of his gruff yet soulful vocalizing and nimble finger-picking results in moving covers of Grateful Dead classics ("To Lay Me Down," "Stella Blue") mixed in among tunes originally written for Gov't Mule ("Fallen Down") and earlier solo work ("I'll Be the One"). The most pleasant surprises, however, are this guitar hero's credible stabs at Radiohead ("Lucky") and U2 ("One"), two groups not normally associated with the jam-band scene. A duet with South African vocalist Vusi Mahlasela on the uplifting "Soulshine" is the perfect closer for this exemplary live recording.

Warren Haynes Live At Bonnaroo Songs Live At Bonnaroo Music Review Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Eloquent, Simple and Truly Amazing
An essential for your collection. You can hear Warren's soul in every note he sings. They didn't plan to make a CD out of this performance. It was just a sunny afternoon at the Roo and he was asked to play solo. This is the set he played of some of his favorite songs both originals and covers. I have been and will always be a Captain Trips fan so Stella Blue and To Lay Me Down brings a tear to my eye. This is a powerful performance. I am glad that they decided to share it with the world.
