Blue Floyd was a conglomeration of players from other big bands that you definitely know. Forming a traditional blues lineup, the band consisted of Allen Woody and Matt Abts from Gov't Mule, Marc Ford from The Black Crowes, Barry Oakley Jr. and Johnny Neel from The Allman Brothers Band. Allen Woody once said that the concept came from Michael Gaiman of Jazz Is Dead. Gaiman called Woody to let him know that he wanted to put together a blues band to play tribute to Pink Floyd music. Seeming like an obvious choice, Gaiman already had son of Allman Brothers founding member Oakley on board along with Abts, Ford, and Neel who Woody stated would " take them to church". Pink Floyd's material is so timeless. Dark Side Of The Moon spent a total of 917 charted weeks on the Billboard. The album, which was released in 1973 and spent a week at No. 1, continued to chart mostly on a regular basis through 1988. Everyone had their coming of age time with their experience with Pink Floyd. We've heard this band's music for so long. Pink Floyd is a perfect band and this music had all the answers. When you break it down, it's really just a spaced out blues band and putting a little more blue in the ink. This as a real tribute. We all have a tip of the hat to Pink Floyd, respect their music and enjoy it.

LIVE IN ALEXANDRIA is a three CD set by Blue Floyd. It was recorded on their 2000 tour at a concert in Alexandria, Vancouver, Canada. They interpret Pink Floyd songs in a different way with an emphasis on blues improvisations. Govt Mule have also done this on their album Dark Side Of The Mule. Marc Ford, Matt Abts and the late Allen Woody of Gov't Mule, Berry Oakley Jnr. and Johnny Neil are top musicians who need no introduction: no wonder , therefore, let them sparkle in this long concert where they retrace the entire Floydian canon from ''Interstellar Overdrive'' to ''Another Brick In The Wall'', without forgetting ''Us And Them'', ''Shine On You Crazy Diamond'', ''Wish You Were Here'', ''Money'' and ''Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun''. All in a curious and stimulating crossover between British psychedelia and Southern rock, seasoned with some excursions to other territories and an introduction entrusted to the electronic voice of the Hal 9000 computer of ''2001 A Space Odyssey''. These reworked Pink Floyd tunes get such marvelous treatment, that the result is just sheer jam and fusion bliss! Not too many folks out there even knew that Allen Woody could shred the guitar like he does in this group. With another extraordinary player like Marc Ford on the guitar, the two are a perfect concoction for any exploratory jam sequence. Vocals are peppered by almost every member in the band. It was during the jam sessions that the members organically figured out who was going to contribute vocally. Berry Oakley Jr.'s style and approach to these jams are nothing short of spontaneous and world class. Matt Abts technique is such a force behind the Gov't Mule that band nicknamed him "Stain" because he leaves a lasting impression on all of us as fans. If you weren't able to catch this incredible act in the early 2000s, don't fret. That's the beautiful thing about music, it lives on forever!
