The Deep End, Volume 2
The Deep End, Volume 2 is the fifth studio album by the American rock band Gov't Mule. The album was released on October 8, 2002, by ATO Records. After the death of founding member and bass guitarist Allen Woody, the band began recording tracks using bass players that Woody had admired. Originally, there was to be one disc, but so many musicians wanted to be part of the sessions that over 160 minutes of music was recorded. At this point, the remaining members Warren Haynes and Matt Abts decided to split the project into two  releases. "The Deep End, Volume 1" was issued in 2001, and Vol 2 was generally the harder sounding of the two releases although it also featured country and jazz tracks as well. The release also featured a bonus disc, "Hidden Treasure", which contained live material, a song remix, and a new studio track recorded after the Deep End sessions had ended. Track listing. All tracks written by Warren Haynes, except where noted.
