Gov't Mule -Tivoli/Vredenburg - (14 Nov.2023)

.It was in 2005 that I saw Gov,t Mule perform for the first time, on a rainy day in the beautiful open-air theater "Rivierenhof" in Antwerp (Belgium). I was very impressed, I continued to follow the band. After having seen 8 or 9 concerts by the band, it was now the turn of Tivoli / Vredenburg, one of my favorite venues.

Nice setlis with a solid start with songs from their early period (Mule, Monkey Hill). In my opinion the sound was adjusted a bit and we continued with Get Behind The Mule (Tom Waits)Wake Up Dead (album Heavy Load Blues)Larger Then Live (album Dose)Trane/Rumble/Sex machine/St.Stephen Jam ,great!!!After The Storm (album ..Peace like a river) and 32-20 (Robert Johnson) Beautiful first half, relax and time for coffee...

                                           

Good start to the second half, "Dreams" by The Allman Brothers. Warren Haynes has a good voice and great guitar playing. The biggest surprise is bassist Kevin Scott, powerful and beautiful collaboration with Warren.
.

 

We continue with beautiful "Ain't No Love in The Heart Of The City" by Bobby "Blue" Bland, beautiful performance.I Ask Her For Water (Howlin Wolf),Sco-Mule,One of the many highlights of the evening, instrumental. Bassist Kevin goes wild!Gone Too Long(album Peace like a River),Shake You Way Out(Billy Gibbons) and Mr Man((album Deja VooDoo)

                                                          By Gerco van Oene Thanks!!

                          And then it's over?? Of course not. Curious about the encore...

                                                          By Michael Costello Thanks!

After a long intro from Danny Louis, the sounds of "Soulshine" emerged. A wonderful end to a wonderful evening!!!

   9 years ago we had two special artists as guests in our small blues club "De Viersprong" (Holland). Samatha Fish and Mike Zito both gave a solo performance, and the evening ended with this wonderful jam. Musically of a high level, and moreover two very nice people. We look back on it with pleasure!!!

 Valentyne Suite

It's been a great performance on Saturday night at 22nd Zappanale in Bad Doberan. But neither the audience nor the organizer suspected that it would be a historic concert of legendary jazz rock band Colosseum: Jon Hiseman, founder of the band, announced the end of Colosseum to Jörg Wulf (Arf-Society) and Jens Theo Müller (Radio der von Neil Young Getöteten): "It seems that the band has reached its end here. Barbara (Thompson) has Parkinson Desease and it's hard for her to play, and I can't go on tour and leave her at home alone."

Valentyne Suite is the second album released by the band Colosseum. It was Vertigo Records' first album release, and reached number 15 in the UK Albums Chart in 1969. The album peaked at number 18 in Australia in 1970.

Johnny and his Blue Jeans (Middelburg)

     Op jonge leeftijd al geintresseerd in de muziek en wonend in het centrum van Middelburg was ik redelijk op  de hoogte van de toemalige muziekscene.Johnny and his Blue Jeans hadden al  redelijke bekendheid maar een TV optreden was toendertijd toch erg bijzonder..

Hoogtepunt van de band was het optreden voor het Belgische televisieprogramma Tienerklanken in november 1962 (uitgezonden op 17 januari 1963).Wij hadden toen nog geen TV, vriend Karel wel dus kon ik het daar toch zien,ik vond het prachtig en was trots op mijn stadgenoten.!

             Rudy de Queljoe (sologitaar) -Huib Pouwer (drums) -Johnny Caljouw (gitaar, zang)-Richard Henning (basgitaar)  - Jan Koole (gitaar)

Door de opkomst van The Beatles raakt de Rock an Roll wat uit beeld en betekend het einde van de band.
