Gov’t Mule Sco-Mule 1999
Sco-Mule is a live double album by Gov’t Mule featuring John Scofield.
It was recorded at two concerts in Georgia in December 1999.
If you’re not familiar with John Scofield, he’s an American jazz rock guitarist who played with the Miles Davis band for three years in the early 1980s – see his Wikipedia page for more details.
His style of playing creates a strong contrast with the powerful blues rock of Gov’t Mule that may delight or disappoint fans of both.
I should also point out that these are instrumental tracks and that’s a problem for me. While I love instrumental breaks and solos, I like songs to be grounded with vocals.
I admire Gov’t Mule’s desire to experiment and try new things live in concert like Sco-Mule and the Dark Side Of The Mule and Holy Haunted House and their desire to share these different experiences with their fans.

Grateful Dead Steal Your Face 1974
Steal Your Face is a live album by the Grateful Dead.
It was recorded during their farewell tour at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco between October 16 and October 20, 1974.
The band had been pioneering a new sound system (known as the wall of sound) but it made touring harder than before because of the more complicated set-up when they changed venues.
These concerts also provided the source for The Grateful Dead Movie Soundtrack which has been much better received.
