I am listening to the band Mule (the one that was on Touch and Go), having not played their records in quite some time and I had forgotten just how fucking excellent they were. I wish they were still around. I am glad I got to see them a couple times when they were a band, one time was opening for Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, who sucked and I promptly left while they were playing. PW Long of Mule did a couple solo things after Mule’s demise, but it just wasn’t the same, or nearly as good.

Mule… I sure did love them, and I miss them to this very day. Saw them put on an excellent show in Buffalo in 1994. A guy in the crowd was calling for “We Know You’re Drunk” to which Long drawled “What clued you in – when I fell down or when I sh!t my pants”. I still like the PW Long solo stuff, but yeah, not the same.
