Video starts at “Maggot Brain.” Start at the beginning to check out “Trane.”

Gov’t Mule made their yearly pilgrimage to Jewel Paradise Cove in Runaway Bay, Jamaica this week. Island Exodus officially kicked off on the 19th and runs through the 23rd. This year, the Mule is joined by some familiar faces including Ron Holloway, the North Mississippi Allstars, Hot Tuna and more.

On the opening night, Warren and Co did not disappoint. Mule opened with an animals themed set that started with Pink Floyd’s “Pigs on the Wing” to the Mule’s rendition of the Al Green classic “I’m a Ram.”

In the second set, Warren welcomed Captain Ron Holloway to the stage to sit in on a pair of tunes. RoHo and the Mule jammed first on the Gov’t Mule classic “Trane” before launching into a dub style cover of Funkadelic’s “Maggot Brain.”

Thanks to recordcastle for the great front row footage!
