REMEMBER WOODY - ALLEN WOODY (1956-2000)
This six-disc compilation honors and commemorates bassist Allen Woody and the consistent, exceptionally high level of his work as one of Gov’t Mule’s three co-founders. Allen performed together with Warren Haynes and Matt Abts in that magic-inducing trio of three lead musicians who played what Allen lovingly referred to as “heavy metal blues.”

Many, many thanks are due to those magicians: the tapers. The Remember Woody compilation wouldn’t have been possible without those behind-the-scenes heroes who capture the magic night after night. This special anthology was a near-Herculean challenge given the quality and wealth of material to choose from. Everyone who’s heard the Mule has their own set of favorite songs and preferred versions, and the selections included here won’t necessarily turn up on everyone’s list. But no one will be disappointed by what appears on these discs, because the jaw-dropping talents, chops, humor, heart and genius of Allen - all embraced in that huge, warm, inextinguishable tone — are there on each and every cut. Enjoy! - and remember… — Ken Engel
