If you like remakes check out All Along The Watchtower. Was written by Bob Dillan, remade by Jimmy Hendrix, then remade by The Dave Matthews Band. The best version in my opinion is DMB from the album Recently. And if you go there check out Halloween.
Second album is even better, I think. They started out very much in a Stonesy/Humble Pie vibe. They stretch out on Southern Harmony and Musical Companion. Then Chris started going off the rails.
@@jdog6620 lol some covers become more famous than the originals Like Whitney Houstons "Always Love You" which of coarse is a cover of a Dolly Parton song or Chris Singletons "Tennessee Whiskey" which was originally a George Jones tune.
Yes, but I'd rather a sweet live version of Bad Luck Blue Eyes, or if we could just find him a copy of Cabin Fever, that shit was .. look at that, goose bumps.
Love Black Crowes! Also, this song is a cover by none other than the late Great Otis Redding..now you have to check out his version since this is a cover ;) Keep On Rockin`
Back in 1989, when this album was released, they came over to London for the first time to play the legendary Marquee Club and I was fortunate to be there. These boys could play!
THE GRATEFUL DEAD with pigpen singin is the epic version of Otis's creation. Black crowes hashed it out here and live. it was "their" big hit. the Dead version EPIC ❤😁😁😁
This album is an absolute freight train! A great listen from front to back, so many great songs, some of the best riffs you could ever want, some slower, fantastically laid down grooves to lend the album a few much needed relaxing spaces amidst the onslaught of real damn deal Rock n Roll!
Too bad She Talks To Angels got blocked. Such a great tune. Twice As Hard, Jealous Again, Go Faster and Stop Kickin' My Heart Around are some other greats of theirs.
@@Sarge. to be honest, you freaked me out. I thought you were accusing ME at first. All I wanted to do was compliment a very talented, rad young artist. ❤️ Not sure why you chose my post but that’s ok.... You be the best you. Always gonna be people who suck. Spirit of this channel, we’re gonna lead with positive energy and kindness. Peace and wellness to you.
At 4:23, that is the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, OH. It was the summer of 1990, their first headlining tour. They played this song three times for the video. There is a quick glimpse of me in the crowd. I was 28, a guest of the record label, the rest is pretty fuzzy. Thanks for bringing back a great memory!
Had many good times at the Newport, starting in 1987' while still in HS, fake ID drinking... all the pretty girls, I was in heaven on my first time; this is when they would open as a regular bar/dance-bar no concert. First Concert was Robert Cray.
I have a cousin whose family owned an insurance agency in Atlanta. While visiting with him one night, he asked "You ever hear of a band called The Black Crowes?" I said "Hell yeah! Why?" He had just wrote and signed a policy insuring all of their tour and recording equipment and instruments. He asked if they were any good. I let him know they were huge. He said "Good, so they will be able to pay their bills." I asked why the hell he didn't know who they were, since they were from his home town.
I love the Black Crows! I love this song which is a remake from the iconic Otis Redding, whom I love too! This lead singer, Chris Robinson is amazing! She Talks To Angels is another amazing song by this group!!
It is difficult to improve upon anything Otis Redding recorded, but this cover by the Black Crowes takes it to a whole 'nuther level. Simply sensational.
My hope for Rock and Roll was lifted when the Black Crows came out. Maybe there’s still hope. It was wonderful seeing you come full circle in your journey.
Jamel did his research, before starting his channel......Guess that’s part of why he’s so successful and not a “one-off” reactor. Jamel is “legit”......Keep makin’ music great, brother!....I enjoy 10 minutes of your content, every day after work, with a beer and a smoke...✌️
Back at either the 98 or 99 Music Midtown festival here in Atlanta, another band (Goo Goo Dolls, if I’m not mistaken) were supposed to headline the big 99X stage and pulled out for like a sore throat or something. The Black Crowes were unsurprisingly in town for the weekend and came out and played. One of the best festival performances I’ve ever seen. Hometown crowds always help, but the fact that no one was expecting to see them that night til like an hour before it happened made it even better.
Thanks for reacting to The Black Crowes. Check out their NPR Tiny Desk Concert from last year. If you can’t react to it just watch for your own enjoyment! ✌️❤️☘️
I remember when these guys use to stomp around the Cotton Club on Peachtree like they owned the place and talked shit about all the bands that played there. When I saw Spiritualized there (another band you should react to, beautiful music) the look on Chris Robinson's face was priceless. The Black Crowes are an undeniably great band and we're proud of their success down here. The best music in the world comes from Georgia...
I remember that girl on America Got Talent she's was amazing!! She was just like a young Janis Joplin!!! Love this song!! Great reaction Jamal!! ❤️🤘Keeping Music Alive!!
This is actually a cover of a song by the GREAT Otis Redding. I love this cover and I actually absolutely love all music by The Black Crowes also. The only thing that would calm my daughter when she was a baby was their music. Especially She Talks to Angels.
You all may not believe this but my husband said that when he lived in Detroit that Eddie Harsch (keyboard player) lived with him (his daughter backs this up). It was when Eddie was down & out because of drug abuse. Eddie was a trained cassical pianist & used to play for him.
Quit with explaining yourself. We are coming back for more reactions. Can't and never will be able too please everyone. Thanks for keeping great music alive.
Seeing your reaction, the surprise and enjoyment makes it seem like I'm hearing it for the first time all over again. That's a great feeling. I dig your channels.
Time to react to some Otis! One of my favorite singers of all time, a real powerhouse that we lost far too esrly into his career. Dock Of The Bay, Hard To Handle, I've Been Loving You Too Long, These Arms Of Mine, Try A Little Tenderness, I Can't Turn You Loose, Respect, and so many more...
Every time I hear this song I think of the movie The Commitments.... great version of this song in that movie.... actually a ton of great songs in there, all sung by the actors in the movie about an Irish soul band.
Yo J I know you like the originals! I know we're all white out here but I've got to give it up for Otis Redding. He's on my Mt. Rushmore of male soul singers (Ray, Sam, Otis & James). Otis Redding: Hard to Handle -> Try a Little Tenderness -> I've Been Loving You -> Dreams to Remember -> Sitting on the Dock of the Bay.
Fun fact!! After driving across country to L.A. and being rejected by all labels, Rick Rubin picked them up for Def Jam and after it went top of the charts, he screwed them out of publication rights!! But the best vengeance is success and happiness, and the black crowes really proved that proverb!!
Still love this song. One of the greatest covers ever. The Otis Redding original was amazing. I prefer this version over the one they play now on the radio with the horns added-in. The Black Crowes are from Atlanta GA. Otis Redding was from Macon GA. I believe that is where they shot this video. I've actually seen the Britain's Got Talent and that great Courtney Hadwin performance of this song. But nothing can beat The Black Crowes version. I'm now going to watch your reaction to The Big O doing this song. He was an amazing man and one of the greatest singers and entertainers this world has ever had. We lost him way too young to a plane crash in December 1967, just a few months after I was born. That man was a genuine force of nature.
Jamel... Thanks for doing this one... I've been waiting for you reaction to this song for awhile... I was gonna suggest it myself but I know that you must get hundreds of requests a day and I didn't want to bother you...😆... thanks man!
Omg Yessss! Going to church now J ❤️🔥🤘🏻😍 Yes. I love Courtney. She's an awesome young lady. Loves great music too! Took a lot to keep this good Ole music rockin' 🙂✌🏻😘
This is a cover of an old Otis Redding song, though when it came out no one that.... I love thT debute album, I was having way too much fun back in those days.
Love the Black Crowes, their music has a southern flair that I absolutely love. Try some Blackberry Smoke "Medicate My Mind". They'll leave you craving more! PEACE!!!!!

You gotta do the Otis version!
This was a remake of Otis Redding's song from '68 or '69 IIRC. I'd love to see you react to it.
Always enjoy the reactions! Rock on, brother!
This is a remake I think from the 50's. I could be wrong on the time era.
If you like remakes check out All Along The Watchtower. Was written by Bob Dillan, remade by Jimmy Hendrix, then remade by The Dave Matthews Band. The best version in my opinion is DMB from the album Recently. And if you go there check out Halloween.
This is a cover of Otis Redding. It really displays the roots and influences on their music (among many others). Thanks for reacting!
You gotta do the Otis version!
Otis Redding is another who died too young. An incredible talent whose influence can be heard everyhere.
Tony Joe White, 1966 also; both his & Redding’s Very worthy versions of the song.
Etta James did this song also
@@janemillerick9614 holy crap! I've never heard the Tony Joe White version. Thank you!
Their entire debut album is good. No filler, just hits like this
100 percent.
Second album is even better, I think.
They started out very much in a Stonesy/Humble Pie vibe.
They stretch out on Southern Harmony and Musical Companion.
Then Chris started going off the rails.
@@williamknell864 agreed. Southern Harmony is a better album
The Black Crowes were the '90s callback to classic '70s rock, which is probably why I loved them so much as a teenager.
When this album came out, I thought rock n roll was saved!
@@laurakali6522 My thoughts too and I loved this album.
@@laurakali6522 because it was
Me to!!
Shake Your Money Maker!!! Not a single bad song on this record!
Still need to listen to Twice as Hard and Jealous Again by the Black Crowes.
Excellent songs!!!☮️💜
I just said the same. Great taste! 💗👍
Those are also great songs. *Shake Your Moneymaker* was really one of the greatest albums ever. Definitely one of the top 50 greatest debuts ever.
Those are great songs. I love “Jealous Again.”
Black Crowes, the band that showed that Classic Rock is a genre of music, not a time frame.
Great comment.
I love Jealous Again by them too, and Seeing Things is my 2nd fave song of theirs after She Talks to Angels!
Jealous Again is my favorite!
Jealous Again
Is In My All Time Top 10 Favorite Song List
THis is an Otis Redding cover, a very good one.
HOLY SH*T!!! I was today year's old when I found out this was a cover. What the....what???? Comment section is always on fire. Damn.
@@jdog6620 lol some covers become more famous than the originals Like Whitney Houstons "Always Love You" which of coarse is a cover of a Dolly Parton song or Chris Singletons "Tennessee Whiskey" which was originally a George Jones tune.
@@JoeSmith-ey2xp Tennessee Whiskey was first by David Allen Coe in 1981, then covered by George Jones in 1983.
@@JoeSmith-ey2xp Also Molly Hatchets version of The Allman Brothers song "Dreams (I'll Never See)"".
@@browncoat13 you beat me to it
You need to do Thorn in my Pride by the Black Crows next
I just wrote this also..lol... shows there real talent.
100%
Yes, but I'd rather a sweet live version of Bad Luck Blue Eyes, or if we could just find him a copy of Cabin Fever, that shit was .. look at that, goose bumps.
Yessssss
Man, I just love ❤️ singing along with the Black Crows! Please do Jealous Again, Seeing Things, and Twice as Hard!
All bangers!
Jealous and Twice as hard! They both ROCK!
Thank you for reacting to The Black Crowes! 🎶♥️
🔥 The Black Crowes 🔥
You ain't done yet, J!! Keep going!!
- Jealous Again
- Twice As Hard
Yaaaasss!!! ✌🏻
Remedy
You picked my 2nd and 3rd faves behind She Talks to Angels. These are really close!!!!
@@tony731731 He did "Remedy" recently. 🙂
Love Black Crowes! Also, this song is a cover by none other than the late Great Otis Redding..now you have to check out his version since this is a cover ;) Keep On Rockin`
I had no idea that it was done by him thanks for that information
Back in 1989, when this album was released, they came over to London for the first time to play the legendary Marquee Club and I was fortunate to be there. These boys could play!
Oh Jamel, you make me happy on a Saturday. Black Crowes and The Cult in one day!
The Dead covered this song pretty often in the 60s and very early 70s before Pigpen passed away.
Pigpen was a goodun
Came here to say the same thing. Jamal will love a good Pigpen performance!
THE GRATEFUL DEAD with pigpen singin is the epic version of Otis's creation.
Black crowes hashed it out here and live. it was "their" big hit.
the Dead version EPIC ❤😁😁😁
came here to say exactly that!
I got a version by New Riders.
8/6/1971
Pig!
I bought that album...
Dad said "Man thats a OLD TUNE."
Otis Redding
We was BOTH jammin'.
"jealous", "twice as hard", and "seeing things" are all great songs by the black crows
This album is an absolute freight train! A great listen from front to back, so many great songs, some of the best riffs you could ever want, some slower, fantastically laid down grooves to lend the album a few much needed relaxing spaces amidst the onslaught of real damn deal Rock n Roll!
Black crows twice as hard is amazing too
You got to listen to the late great Miss Etta James singing this song. She is fire!!
Etta also did an amazing version of "Only Women Bleed" by Alice Cooper(!!)
You should listen to their entire second album "The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion" you've done "Remedy" off that album
The Commitments did a fine job covering this song as well.
Too bad She Talks To Angels got blocked. Such a great tune. Twice As Hard, Jealous Again, Go Faster and Stop Kickin' My Heart Around are some other greats of theirs.
Black Crowes- Seeing Things
I’m so glad you brought up Courtney Hadwin. I literally cried when Howey pressed that golden buzzer. ❤️
She was incredible
@@Sarge. to be honest, you freaked me out. I thought you were accusing ME at first. All I wanted to do was compliment a very talented, rad young artist. ❤️ Not sure why you chose my post but that’s ok....

Yes sir! You know your boys The Grateful Dead do a cover of this song too... Check it out!
Dude......you ROCK man!!!!
LOVE BLACK CROWES EVERY SONG 😃🤘🤘🔥
The Grateful Dead used to cover this one live quite a bit....
RIP Pigpen. Hard to Handle, Katie Mae, Lovelight and many more.
It's on 3 from the vault I believe..
Melo D Not on three from the vault. There is a nice version on Bear’s Choice (The History of the Grateful Dead)
@@duffypratt One of best versions on The Phil Zone. No date. GREAT crowd.
@@duffypratt I think the best song on Bear's Choice is Katie Mae. Dripping with Pigs blues and sensitivity.

When music still was doing the dang thang.
So great to see you getting into The Blsck Crowes, man. The best rock 'n' roll band of the last 30 years.
You will love "Jealous Again".
I absolutely love this group. Glad you are discovering this awesome group...!!!
Best black crowes song is sometimes salvation. You NEED to do a reaction to it!!
Amen. Powerful stuff, surprised me.
My hope for Rock and Roll was lifted when the Black Crows came out. Maybe there’s still hope.

Yeah that was great.
Stripped down an still just as powerful.
The Grateful Dead used to cover this song a lot in their early days, their late keyboardist Ron “Pigpen” McKernan handled the vocals back then.
I remember when these guys use to stomp around the Cotton Club on Peachtree like they owned the place and talked shit about all the bands that played there. When I saw Spiritualized there (another band you should react to, beautiful music) the look on Chris Robinson's face was priceless.

Spiritualized is a great band.
Otis was an exceptional song writer. His songs are still being covered.
Yep early 90' was just an extension of the great music pf the 80's
The original was done in the '60's.
What a special moment for you to come full circle! Thanks for sharing how it all began! Cool 😎 story!
I remember that girl on America Got Talent she's was amazing!! She was just like a young Janis Joplin!!! Love this song!! Great reaction Jamal!! ❤️🤘Keeping Music Alive!!
No surprise that your Black Crowes videos are getting the most views. Straight rock. Pure energy.
Yessssss! I’m behind today- so glad to see this one too! 💙❤️👍✌️

The first time I saw this video. I thought these guys were carrying the torch of one of my favorite bands, The Faces. I LOVE this band!!!❤️❤️❤️
Thanx Jamal 😃 been waiting for this 🤘🤘
One of the best shows I ever saw was the Black Crowes opening for ZZ Top great show top to bottom
Quit with explaining yourself. We are coming back for more reactions. Can't and never will be able too please everyone. Thanks for keeping great music alive.
Been waiting for this one!! Happy Saturday!
She Talks To Angels is my favorite song by them!! So deep!!! “The cross is of someone that she has not met, not yet!”
Black Crowes are a great rock and roll band. Love that you reacted. Thanks
Thorn In My Pride, Sister Luck, Jealous Again....keep coming with The Crows!
"Sting Me" off their 2nd album ( it's actually the first sing on that album and Remedy directly follows it) is a very good one...Highly underrated...
This here band. Oh man. So many wonderful memories. They're from Georgia.
YAY!! Black Crowes again!!!This is gonna be good!!!! (this is my 2nd favorite from them!!) ***Jamel wins for best "Chair" dancer!*** :)
I just saw them live this past Saturday. The brothers still got it.
Glad the Brothers Robinson are back together. Brothers definitely have some soul.✌🏼👍🏼
One of the best bands I've ever seen live!
Your journey is my forgotten journey. Now i get to watch yours! Amazing sir.
Soul Singing by them is Amazing
Seeing Things and Twice as Hard form the Black Crowes are outstanding
Long live Rock n Roll.
A guy once sang this to me on the train and he hit every note. I was impressed speechless.
Seeing your reaction, the surprise and enjoyment makes it seem like I'm hearing it for the first time all over again. That's a great feeling. I dig your channels.
Time to react to some Otis! One of my favorite singers of all time, a real powerhouse that we lost far too esrly into his career. Dock Of The Bay, Hard To Handle, I've Been Loving You Too Long, These Arms Of Mine, Try A Little Tenderness, I Can't Turn You Loose, Respect, and so many more...

Love the energy man. Thanks for doing what you’re doing!
"Seeing things for the first time" is a must.
He did that one like a year ago. Back when he still did the thought bubbles I think
I love The Black Crowes. They were my first concert!
The blueprints for the Black Crowes were laid out in a Rolling Stones song called Crazy Mama in 1976.

The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion. You MUST listen to THAT album by them.
When i saw that video, i couldn’t believe it
Fun fact!! After driving across country to L.A. and being rejected by all labels, Rick Rubin picked them up for Def Jam and after it went top of the charts, he screwed them out of publication rights!! But the best vengeance is success and happiness, and the black crowes really proved that proverb!!
Black Crowes - Blackberry
Great song
"Hard to Handle" was originally an Otis Redding song released just after his death in 1967 that Janis Joplin also recorded.
Still love this song. One of the greatest covers ever. The Otis Redding original was amazing. I prefer this version over the one they play now on the radio with the horns added-in.
The Black Crowes are from Atlanta GA. Otis Redding was from Macon GA. I believe that is where they shot this video.
I've actually seen the Britain's Got Talent and that great Courtney Hadwin performance of this song. But nothing can beat The Black Crowes version.
I'm now going to watch your reaction to The Big O doing this song. He was an amazing man and one of the greatest singers and entertainers this world has ever had. We lost him way too young to a plane crash in December 1967, just a few months after I was born. That man was a genuine force of nature.
Jamel... Thanks for doing this one... I've been waiting for you reaction to this song for awhile... I was gonna suggest it myself but I know that you must get hundreds of requests a day and I didn't want to bother you...😆... thanks man!
Omg Yessss!
Going to church now J
❤️🔥🤘🏻😍
Yes. I love Courtney.
She's an awesome young lady. Loves great music too! Took a lot to keep this good Ole music rockin' 🙂✌🏻😘
This is a cover of an old Otis Redding song, though when it came out no one that.... I love thT debute album, I was having way too much fun back in those days.
You should react to George Jones' " Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes". It's a great song.
Love the Black Crowes, their music has a southern flair that I absolutely love. Try some Blackberry Smoke "Medicate My Mind". They'll leave you craving more! PEACE!!!!!
Thanks for this reaction and for sending me to the Courtney Hadwin video, too. She is AMAZING!
Old school 70's american rock. Stripped down, fun, etc.
Love These guys. They are best live.
Been watching your channel now for a long time. LOVE it! God Bless You and yes...let's keep good music alive!!😊
