    @3:39 that is either an old riff from Roi ressurected or an eery strange coincidence how much that sounds like him.

    Anyone have any info on the possibilities of this?!

    There has been confirmed no Roi at all by Boyd and Stefan.

    OK then.

    Well I am convinced this was some sort of nodd to Roi by Tim or whomever wrote that little riff. It is exactly what Roi would play, tone is pitch perfect.

    Stefan said in the interview with Cali that it is scary how much Jeff sounds like Roi on some of the new songs. Stefan said that it's almost like Jeff went back to the Big 3 and studied Roi's parts.

    I had the same thought. It took my a while to figure out what it reminded me of but I finally realized... Roi plays almost the exact same line as the jam of The Lillywhite Sessions Bartender winds down.

    I love Mercy! A stand out track. I can't wait to see what DMB has to offer us in Sept. I checked out the pre-order package on their website. Pretty sweet deal, I'd say! A photo book and DVD!!

    This all makes sense.

    Mikey the very first time I heard the track I was almost convinced it was Roi, it didn't take a while for me to figure anything out. Roi was always the person who brought me back to the band time and time again because of his tone. If Jeff did in fact go back and study the Big 3 then that would make perfect sense because he is type of talent who would/could pull something like that off. If you think about it and how much time and effort that must take, you'll see that Jeff was being completely selfless in musical terms and that is exactly what you need to be when writing new music. The music comes first, everything else second.

    From Examiner.com: " Looking for new music to download and discover? Look no further"

    "Although it’s not quite Crash Into Me, the Dave Matthews Band has released the first single called Mercy from their upcoming record “Away From the World” due out on September 11th, 2012. Available now for $1.29 on Amazon and iTunes, it’s a slower, softer track that is brilliant lyrically. Although the studio version clocks in at 4 minutes and 34 seconds, live versions are sure to contain a 20-minute intro as Dave Matthews slowly morphs his band into a jam band."

    Slowly morphs his band into a jam band??? Where have they been the past 20+ years?

    Oh man... I just finally let myself listen to the studio cut of Mercy all the way through, then popped on Gaucho immediately after... and you know what? It was pure sex. Damn but I can't wait to get this album!

    Actually, that riff is from Jeff's "bag of tricks". It sounded familiar to me upon the first listen as well...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q50xzhDO9lI

    Listen to 4:19. Whenever I hear that lick, I think of Jeff Coffin. Sure enough, that lick made it over to Mercy.

    You should also check out Jeff's album "Go Round". You'd be amazed by how many of those song ideas and licks made it over to his DMB solos. Well, actually, just check out all of Jeff's solo albums to get his complete musical vocabulary. That vocab has influenced both DMB and the Flecktones. It's kinda cool seeing how just one musician can have such an impact on an entire band.

    I know this is wicked late, cool find though. I've always loved that video and never noticed it.
