Manring is amazing, but I have to agree with Dick.... Jonas Hellborg is THE man. He elevates the bass to a level that amazes me. Check out Sean Malone. Before long, his name will be rolling about with more frequency.

Not many jam-bands hit this depth of musicianship but Umphrey's McGhee sure got my attention and made me forget about Phish and The Grateful Dead (who quite honestly bore the crap out of me!).

Their originals were very unpredictable and quirky and the cover tunes just as much (ranging from Chick Corea's "Captain Senor Mouse" to Metallica's "And Justice For All" though I could've done very well without the Doobie's "Black Water" though), the two guitarists intertwined beautifully, killer keyboards (lotsa analog), great rhythm section and not a snoozy moment!

Umphrey's something else. Hopefully they'll make the West Coast in support of Anchor Drops.
