they had a good sax player, and another guitarist as well (Jackie Greene) on those Gov't Mule Stones tracks...I think there was a percussion player too..?

The problem is that it is impossible to cover the Stones and to sound good (unless you are a pure genius but I cannot think of anyone).
People like Gov't Mule should know better.
It's impossible if you're anal about covers and think a cover song should sound EXAÇTLY like the original, which is absolutely ridiculous. The Stones aren't some magical band that nobody can touch and every cover falls apart. The Stones are just a band, just like any other band.Quote

The best Stones Stones covers are usually done by the bar band down the street...
