Two CD reissue. A welcome return to the Gov't Mule catalog, after having been out of print for over five years. This features the original band line-up and these tracks were initially featured on the four CD set released over 10 years ago on the now defunct Capricorn label. This set is a companion piece to Live with A Little Help from Our Friends Vol. 1. Live... With a Little Help from Our Friends is a live recording of Gov't Mule's 1998 New Year's Eve concert at The Roxy in Atlanta, Georgia.

Great addition to the Mule collection!!!!
I've been looking for this album for a number of years, finally found it and man is it worth the wait. There are only 4 live tracks plus a bonus live in the studio track but it is almost an hour long. If you like Govt Mule, you will love this!!

Nice live set here
Rather than review a 4 disc set , I'll give my review of this item. It's further live material with special guests and the music on here is very good. A lengthy version of Little Feat's "Spanish Moon" is a highlight here and fans of Warren Haynes work with Mule and the Allman Brothers will enjoy this disc. I don't see how some reviewers will give this a bad review based on the fact that this material can be purchased as part of a boxed set. This disc is sold as a stand alone disc and it is very enjoyable however you purchase it.

Gov't Mule and Friends Create Outstanding Music In Concert
At a time when so much great live music remains in the vaults, Warren Haynes continues to record and release amazing performances. The "Wintertime Blues" live double CD of an annual Christmas Jam with major guests, is also a prime example.Live With A Little Help From Our Friends 2, along with Part 1 released earlier, was recorded at Atlanta's Roxy Theatre New Year's Eve '98/'99. Amazing music with Gov't Mule's Haynes, Allen Woody, Matt Abts, and with guests Chuck Leavell, Derek Trucks, Jimmy Herring, Randall Bramblett, Bernie Worrell, Marc Ford and others. How fortunate there were tapes rolling.***The 4 CD Collector's Limited Edition of this is highly recommended, which includes CD-ROM Enhanced Bonus Material.Quality rock music is alive and well.

Buy The Collectors Edition Instead...
I own LWALHFOF, The Collectors Edition as well as the two CD version. For my money this product is a waste. Gov't Mule with the late great Allen Woody(bass) was a spectacular band. Mixing equal parts blues, funk, jazz, country, and space jamming this band in some ways even surpassed its parent band, the 1990's ABB.Warren Haynes felt that he had to release the four CD set because the concert was great. I concur with that assessment.Do yourself a favor, lay down the extra $$ for the expanded edition I promise you won't be disappointed!
