Tennessee Morning Nov 26, 2008 I was sitting 25 yards from the stage, with good friends, while Warren played these songs. There were maybe 700 of us when Warren started playing, in a space that was intended to hold 40,000+.
It was a hot Tennessee morning at Bonnaroo, though it's always hot as hell at Bonnaroo. Felt like most folks were still recovering from the day/night before.
Despite the fact Warren was playing to an immensely large empty field, it was an intimate experience for those forced out of their tents by the heat and humidity. This recording captures a truly unique singer/songwriter who played for a lucky few (that picture on the cover of all those people is not from this performance).
Good Stuff! Feb 02, 2008 I'll be honest. I'm a big fan of Warren Haynes's work with his primary project, Gov't Mule, so I was a little disappointed by how this album started. The first couple of songs don't seem to have the energy or emotion that Warren usually brings to his live sets. The album's turning point, however, is with "The Real Thing," where he suddenly takes his performance to a higher level, and the crowd begins to respond in kind. His renditions of Mule favorites "Fallen Down" and "Beautifully Broken" are also strong, and it's interesting hearing these songs played acoustically and stripped down, just Warren and his guitar.
Warren Haynes Live at Bonnaroo Jan 26, 2008 From top to bottom ,This is some of Warrens finest work. The originals are top of the line, The covers are very well done in that Govt Mule style,and the remakes with a little help from his friends, are fresh and different. I strongly recommend this one to all Allman Bros. fans,and anyone else who just wants to hear a great guitarist/vocalist at his best.

Acoustic Joy May 16, 2007 If you like any one of these songs, you'll probably like them all. Although it is very different in many ways, listening to this album reminds me of listening to Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds play an acoustic set. (For obvious reasons.) A talented musician playing great tunes that warm the soul. Fans of Radiohead and U2 will love his covers of "Lucky" and "One".

Warren made me a believer Dec 29, 2006 Not being a big fan of acoustic guitar songs. Warren has made a believer out of me. This cd has become the one I listen to if i want to relax and mellow out. I would have loved to have seen this show live.
