Warren Haynes Talks Allmans and Gov’t Mule, Plus Watch His Live at Rolling Stone Set

Just before kicking off the Allman Brothers’ annual New York run, Warren Haynes dropped by the Rolling Stone offices to warm up with a couple tunes. The virtuoso guitarist delivered solo acoustic versions of the Allman’s track “Old Friend” (watch it above) as well as “Railroad Boy,” a haunting, traditional blues song that Haynes covers on the latest Gov’t Mule’s new record, By a Thread (see it after the jump!).

Janet Jackson and Aimee Mann Plot New Albums, NIN Remix Site Launches, Black Crowes Return

While her brothers go gallivanting on a planned family reunion tour, Janet Jackson will release her new, still-untitled album in February. The record will be Jackson’s debut on Island Def Jam, and her first since 2006’s 20 Y.O. Janet is also prepping a world tour to coincide with the album, which is being executive produced by Antonio “L.A.” Reid rather than her boyfriend, Jermaine Dupri. Aimee Mann will unleash her new album, called Smilers, next spring on her own Superego label. Mann tells Billboard the new album “almost sounds like the Cars a little bit” and features “no electric guitars at all,” opting for a more Moog sound. The Nine Inch Nails remix site has finally launched, despite being in the middle of an ongoing war between the record labels and the YouTubes of the world. Just last week, Trent Reznor’s old record label refused to host the site because of sampling concerns. To mark the fifth anniversary of the death of the Clash’s Joe Strummer, London’s Brixton JAMM will host “London Calling – Remembering Joe Strummer” on December 22nd. Mani from Primal Scream, Andy Rourke of the Smiths and Jamie T are scheduled to perform. The Black Crowes will release their first album of all-new material in seven years when their Warpaint hits shelves March 4th, 2008. According to the press release, “the album builds compellingly on the band’s trademark adventurous brew of rock, blues, country, soul and gospel.” We’ll take their word on it. [Photo: Getty]
