After reading amazon reviews of this CD I thought it was going to be something fresh, but it's not, it's the same old MOR that almost killed R&R; in the late 70s. To my ears, this CD is over-produced and overly anthemic. The tracks lack intimacy and warmth, both in the performance and in the recording.These guys don't really understand the blues, so don't buy this album if you're looking for good blues or blues rock. GM's resident guitarist plays OK but lacks passion and more than that he lacks his own style - he plays like a good studio guitarist. The two flashes of brilliance on this album are both provided by guest guitarists, Derek Trucks and John Scofield. I played this CD twice and found it so predictable it wasn't necessary to put on ever again ...I much prefer the Black Keys or Jon Spencer Blues Explosion for a fresh approach to white blues rock. It ain't a generation gap, either, as I'm older than the guys in Gov't Mule by a few years ...
