What sounds better than a Red Rocks jam fest in July right about now? Taper Fatah Ruark has been sharing shows from his archive on YouTube and luckily one of his latest selections is from Gov’t Mule’s star-studded show back on July 1, 2005.
Joining the bill at the Mule’s stop at the legendary Red Rocks in 2005 was moe., Leo Kottke & Mike Gordon and Xavier Rudd. As you do at Red Rocks, Warren invited nearly every other artist that played before them to the stage to jam including Mike Gordon, Al Schnier from moe. and Xavier Rudd. The show featured raging originals like “Thorazine Shuffle” and some Dead covers (among others) like “Loser” and “Terrapin Station.”
