     Not quite sure what you mean ... Gov't Mule will happily jam
a song for half-hour--and they're *damn* good at it, if that's the
sort of thing you appreciate.  They are also _effing_ heavy :) The
members have links with the Allman Bros, though their style much
more strongly allied to the likes of Cream, Mountain, and all the
heavy blues-rock power trios.  If a bit heavier :)

Cheers,
Carl
