Warren Haynes "Man In Motion"

Your first clue should be the record label this is released under, Stax.  Allow me to yield to Mr. Haynes as he offers the background...

You may know the names of the band members he mentions, but if not, let me drop a few of the associations for you instead:  The Meters, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Gil-Scott Heron, Dizzy Gillespie, Little Feat, Small Faces, Bonnie Raitt, Rolling Stones, etc., etc., etc..

So I'm going to call this a neuvo-soul record with some blues and a little funk thrown in.  Love the horns and the Wurlitzer.  Saw one review calling it an updated Blues Brothers.  What a dumb fart.  Far superior singing and axe-slingin' than that.  But I never was a big soul music fan, so for me, "Man In Motion" is a keeper based only on the fact that Haynes has been one of the best things going in the music biz over the past twenty or so years.  I'll reach for a Gov't Mule CD before I'll reach for this...
