Gov't Mule - Simple Man

[kevnblu]

Just when you think warren and the Mule can not possible impress you anymore and they do this

[VIDARMATHISEN]

greater the words can express. he has a wicked voice

[Marco33185]

Comme d'habitude avec Warren Haynes c'est ÉNORME ....

[madscotsman26]

RIGHTIOUS Version. Thanks brothers

[uniquebsame]

Great cover.

[toriv81]

Great song and performance!Thanks for posting :)

[joyce55]

I knew that Warren should fall on this tune, a guitar player like him couldn't avoid it, lot of hugs and respect to him and to Collins and Rossington, people I have my refer in guitar playing!

[laiholapso]

God made the earth and the plants the people the world the planets the air etc.

Warren Haynes made god.

Jezus walks over water

Haynes swims through land

[dobi68]

govt mule nailed it, but warren nails every cover from every band. ive seen him with dozens of bands and he fits in like he's been with the band for 10 years, the dead, allman bros, members of zeppelin, the other ones, phil lesh and friends, even with motown artists and metallica.

[djtj275]

IF A SONG CAN MAKE YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES. REFLECT ON LIFE AND SING SILENTLY THAT MY FRIENDS IS A GREAT SONG THAT WILL ALWAYS BE PART OF LIFE GOVT MULE NAILED THIS ONE

[1Jerry70]

IMHO...I think Shinedown HACKED it to hell!!

[oneblueflashinglight]

Dear Darcy, One day Mikey will be everything you wanted him to be. He's getting there. We love you always.

[HamiltonHellhound]

When my Dad died last year I automatically thought of him with this song. Yeah a very emotional song and GM nailed it once again

warren haynes and Govt. Mule have the two best covers anywhere

[mln19631]

[thekiller1260]

[MsReignman]

fivestars*****

[jaymeayres]

Beautifull cover! Awesome!

[c6quad3]

i've seen Warren cover this live atleast twice and it always kicks ass. Warren can do no wrong!

[xamgrab]

@c6quad3 I agree, Warren is a very gifted musician indeed

BUT

His nothing else matters cover was... meh...

[tenwords1]

IN DEED SECOND TO NONE!!

[NHTOATLANTA]

Runs a dang close second to Lynyrd Skynyrd I tell ya!! Sweet!!

[caedraing]

someone told me about this cover, superb

[KingAlanI]

Long since one of my favorite Skynyrd tunes, Gov't Mule handles it pretty darn well.

[TheSpawnofSkynyrd]

@KingAlanI - I honestly think this is the best cover of Simple Man out there...followed shortly by Confederate Railroad's version and Shinedown's version.

[KingAlanI]

@TheSpawnofSkynyrd yeah, I like the Confederate Railroad version too. [Skynyrd Frynyds is the only cover/tribute album I personally have] Haven't heard Shinedown's version.
