I remember hearing the crowes for the first time and thinking FINALLY some good bluesy rock and roll again!! It was a welcome change from the horrible synthesizer 80's. Saw them live about 10 yrs. ago and it was one of the best shows i've ever seen. Wish they never broke up :(
When they opened for Heart in Philadelphia, I was front row center, dancing and sweating my ass off. They had a Small Faces kinda groove that had this 275 lb biker up and out of my seat. I was thinking to myself " I know its only rock n roll " , " can't ya hear me knocking ", " 30 days in the hole " , " do you feel like we do ", " the shape I'm in " All of that good old rock n roll. Strap on, plug in, turn it up loud and hold on. They make music you can let go to.
Dying breed man, this band is truly unique, catch them while you can, I saw them at the opera house in Spokane Washington, and still one of my faves, and I'm 56 and have seen a lot of bands.
This band has, by far, turned into the best rock'n'roll band of today, up there among bands like The Band, Allman Brothers and the Stones....and a few others of course. They were really good in the late 80s/ early 90s, but they have grown into an American treasure, and I really hope they'll be together for a long, long time!!!!
I love,love,love the Crowes! And...I love thier attitudes. I hate rules. I love that they have done it their way. I get how parents' "you can't do it" chant can make a child want to prove them wrong. Chris is such a great showman and vocalist.
Loved their music since I first saw them at the Dugout at Emory back in the day, and seen them a bunch since. Chris is a massive stage presence and a musical genius. The Robinson Bros' uncompromising approach to everything has been hell for everyone to put up with and has limited the band's success, but that's the price paid for such music.
I really like how Chris and Rich are so different from one another. They both show interesting points of view. It's too bad their differences broke up the band.
these guys are real, grew w/ them, waited for albums. i wrote them a letter and may have gotten it to them when they played state college PA around 04 or 05. i invited them to my hookah lounge which i named after a word i got from them that they got from jazz musicians. they never came down to THE TALL SHIVA HOOKAH LOUNGE but a few months after that show/invite the Robinson bros split up and Rich formed a band called Hookah Brown, thought that was cool and thought maybe he just liked "my" word.
I was 17 years old when my band was playing the whole album! When it first came out!! It was the best rock n roll band of the 90s!! 🤙Omg Southern Harmony is so dope!!! Super Rad!!!!
Best studio ever? No WAY! Even Southern Harmony does not touch classics like Exile, Sticky, Bleed, Who's Next, or Quad, but maybe you meant bands today? Not sure they're "THE Best"?......BUT...... If I had to go to one concert a year, I can't think of a band I would put before them! Not even The Stones! (maybe 69-73) but not today! While they are simply going through the motions, The Crowes are truly feeling it up there. I like Jackie, and Luther, but will always miss Marc Ford. A LOT!
keith moon Naw they are the best band every in my opinion. Not talent or whatever, there's plenty of single guys you could pick out of bands but music wise I choose the Crowes over all and I don't care
Seen them 3 times, one of my favorite bands....I believe their one of, if not the best American rock band around right now....last show I saw was 2 weeks ago, as good as the first time i.saw them on the shake.your money maker tour, in a venue that held 400 ppl, before they really broke
I’m 22 obviously missed their prime, I’m lucky to have Rival Sons holding the rock n roll flag. It’s amazing how the Crowes in the early 90’s weren’t guns n Roses/Metallica but they also weren’t the Seattle sound. Right in between and toured relentlessly. Amazing
The Black Crowes are the only band that matters in the last 30 years Pearl Jam couldn’t hold a candle to The Black Crowes The Black Crowes jams and music is stellar
best 49 minutes I spent in years. love it how its them telling the stuff and not some wanker telling it his own way. all music documentaries should be like this, I love the black crowes and i'm proud to be a loyal fan
Proper band: no ego, no ball shit and (damn straight) awesome music! I know a few bands that can fuse together more genres at any one time (The Band being one)- but these guys do it so effortlessly!!!
Great old videos from their stellar history. The last great Rock n Roll band. What happened that no band was able to follow? The record system plain and simple. Such a shame.
They have been touring for the last 6 months as The Crowes.The go on short hiatus's to do they're own things individually but always have been the Crowes-never officially broke up at any time.They toured non-stop for close to 11 years !!!! Name a band that has ever done that-then they tour with solo bands when on hiatus-so they really never stop touring.Best American Rock Band EVER-who can hold a candle to this band -who?An American Treasure.Never gave in to the record companies to pump out hits
I respect The Black Crowes and what their music represents. But also, I like seeing when the Robinson brothers get along with each other. They have their issues, but they both have the same passion for music.
Not really. I've seen them like 9 times and every show was packed with a nice mixture of all ages groups. Who cares about the billboard charts or music magazines
Great video. The Crowes are one of the best bands in rock today. They stay true to themselves, perform with the same passion they put into creating and writing their music. They refuse to conform to the corporate dickheads who want to homogenize the artists to cookie cutter status to sell the most records. Keep doing what your doing-Crowes, I'll continue to be at every show within a 5 hour drive-or a 5 hr flight-yeah for my 50th birthday 3 years ago to Vegas! Keep on keepin' on!
@@crystalvickers78 Not sure what "tried dying mad" means? I'm not preventing anyone from enjoying anything. These musicians that the Robinson's have playing with them sound good. The Robinson's themselves sound good. But the collective is far from genuine and then knowing the back story from the last five - 10 years? ... no thanks.
Amorica may be the greatest album in the history of rock n roll. Bold statement I know, but it deserves to be talked about like Bringing it all back Home, Sticky Fingers. Every picture tells a story, Abbey Road, etc...Its that good a record.
@@ericpigg2689 Its all a matter of opinion. I can listen to Amorica over and over and still love that record. The gentleman below me loves the album "Lions" . Its all good. we all have our favorites
Great band!! To bad they don't get along. Your depriving your fans of your music. No? We miss you two guys together! Get it together Rich and Cris !! Come on
Marie, they are together again and have been gigging since last year's summer. They just finished a tour in Europe 2 weeks ago and are now heading over to Japan and Australia.
My mom Dated Chris Robinson back in her high school days lmao, I had never heard of these guys before she mentioned it to me but it’s pretty wild nevertheless.
Having read Steve Gorman's book Hard to Handle, one can now understand what Steve meant with his codependency issues of fellow bandmates The Black Crowes. Listening to this video it's very apparent Steve Gorman is kissing the Robinson's brothers asses. Steve figured he could brown nose his way into the band becoming more normal and cohesive. It's abundantly obvious Steve at this particular juncture in his career with the Robinson's has adopted the same mentality and philosophy of the Black Crowes, Chris and Rich Robinson if they ever had a 3rd brother it would be Steve Gorman. Steve played the charade very well. After the Robinson's kicked him out of the band, Steve needed to make sense of his tenure. It was during this process he realized he was codependent. It must have been very therapeutic to have written Hard to Handle .
Have you ever experienced someone that you’d swear loves the sound of their own speaking voice? Like their mouth operates about 5 seconds ahead of their brain? Like they’re trying soo hard to come up with some profound point AFTER they’ve already started talking? That’s how I see Chris Robinson. I like their music. I like it a lot. But listening to Chris go on and on and on just makes me cringe. Not sure I’ve ever heard another musician sound so self important. Endless griping about people “not getting him” ? Good grief dude. What are you talking about? You’ve sold millions of records. Give me a break. Oh well, I’ll just stick to their records and try to avoid any of his interviews, cause that dude is a major drag and a real downer. Surprised someone hasn’t already punched his lights out. Peace.
I get exactly what you are saying. I have seen the Crowes at least 3 times, maybe 4. Most of it was great, but if Chris is pissy, it is OVER. Saw them at a theatre here in my home town. Would have been on the By Your Side tour if I am not mistaken. The show was on a week night, in a city of less than 200k people, so do the math. During the first song, they turned on the house lights, and saw the house, which seats maybe 3500 was probably seating about 2000. You could tell from that moment on Chris was not happy, and it showed in the performance. No audience interaction, except when someone threw a t shirt on stage, and then we got s stopped song (which they didn't finish) and a profanity laced lecture about respect that lasted 2 minutes. I kept thinking how I would like a chance to scrap with his scrawny little ass. It really pissed me off. I kept thinking WHY are you pissed at us??? WE bought the tickets. WE are HERE! Go be pissed at someone who didn't come. Show ended with no encores, very few of the early hits, long winded jams, and him basically giving a quick half hearted good night. No thank you or other well wishes. I was kind of pissed at the Crowes for some time after that show.
eric pigg Why in the world does he have to act like that? Must be some deep deep insecurity going on. Oh well, I guess I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels like this. I just wish he’d chill out and be cool.
He IS cool. He has a lot going on inside him and he expresses it. He's blessed with passion and brains and some people find it a joy to listen to him- I'm one of them. I hope he writes a book someday.
I thought the same thing. Her music? Yeah, did J Lo EVER wake out of a deep sleep with a line of verse than DEMANDED her to get up in the middle of the night and flesh out a song. Has she ever had a riff or melody appear from out of nowhere and compel her to drop EVERYTHING she was doing at that VERY moment and turn that simple riff into a song? Doubtful.
The only thing that ticks me off about the Black Crowes is the way they’ve tried so hard to distance themselves from their Southerness. The first two albums are straight up southern rock albums and that means they are indebted to the southern rock tradition. But ever since Southern harmony came out they seem to have been put off by the southern association.
One thing not talked about much, is the fact when both brothers sing together its amazing.
I remember hearing the crowes for the first time and thinking FINALLY some good bluesy rock and roll again!! It was a welcome change from the horrible synthesizer 80's. Saw them live about 10 yrs. ago and it was one of the best shows i've ever seen. Wish they never broke up :(
The Black Crowes are now back in 2024 😊
One word; BRILLIANT!! Brilliant Band, Brilliant sound, Brilliant ethos, Brilliant talents. Oh, and great doco. lol
Going to the Fox tomorrow! This band means so much to me (the brothers). Marietta GA, my home town! Our Soul Music
Right on,from Atlanta myself,and they are certainly an institution.
The Crowes blew my mind, I basically grew up with them, seeing their shows.
Same
When they opened for Heart in Philadelphia, I was front row center, dancing and sweating my ass off. They had a Small Faces kinda groove that had this 275 lb biker up and out of my seat. I was thinking to myself " I know its only rock n roll " , " can't ya hear me knocking ", " 30 days in the hole " , " do you feel like we do ", " the shape I'm in " All of that good old rock n roll. Strap on, plug in, turn it up loud and hold on. They make music you can let go to.
I saw that same tour in Peoria, Illinois... Killer killer show!!
heck yeah
As always I'm late to the party, but I love the sound these guys put out. The blues mixed in the rock is a great sound!
I have loved the Crowes since I first heard them in the late 80's Its just real and makes you feel good Keep rockin!
Love The Crowes.. I caught them with Jimmy opening for my all time fav band The Who!! Twas a kick ass concert..
Dying breed man, this band is truly unique, catch them while you can, I saw them at the opera house in Spokane Washington, and still one of my faves, and I'm 56 and have seen a lot of bands.
This band has, by far, turned into the best rock'n'roll band of today, up there among bands like The Band, Allman Brothers and the Stones....and a few others of course. They were really good in the late 80s/ early 90s, but they have grown into an American treasure, and I really hope they'll be together for a long, long time!!!!
I'm 77 yrs old and discovered the Crowes 30 yrs ago. Still give me gòsebumps.
awesome!
It's clear why Jimmy Page felt them worthy to play with.
I love,love,love the Crowes! And...I love thier attitudes. I hate rules. I love that they have done it their way. I get how parents' "you can't do it" chant can make a child want to prove them wrong. Chris is such a great showman and vocalist.
AMAZING ! The Last real Rock n Roll Band ! Long Live the Black Crowes. Good Vibes 👣
Saw them at Meadowbrook in NH last night...phenomenal. These guys are like a fine wine...gets better with time. ✌❤
Loved their music since I first saw them at the Dugout at Emory back in the day, and seen them a bunch since. Chris is a massive stage presence and a musical genius. The Robinson Bros' uncompromising approach to everything has been hell for everyone to put up with and has limited the band's success, but that's the price paid for such music.
they were sure a real service to me - and to human kind! I'm thankful for them and all who love them! (not a 'service' but a real sevice to the soul!)
These songs gave me great joy and comfort through a lot of things I went through.. I consider their music like friends for the soul🌹❤️🦋✌🏼
The Black Crowes filled the void in my music world that existed after Led Zeppelin was no more.
i have seen this band 8 times live, fucking amazing...thanks for the post
Damn I miss these guys. I love their music.
I really like how Chris and Rich are so different from one another. They both show interesting points of view. It's too bad their differences broke up the band.
Thank goodness they have once again,..reconnected and are touring again👌👁🖤©️®️✌️🤤🎶🎵
these guys are real, grew w/ them, waited for albums.
i wrote them a letter and may have gotten it to them when they played state college PA around 04 or 05. i invited them to my hookah lounge which i named after a word i got from them that they got from jazz musicians.

All the Respect for this guys...Great Band and Musicians..Love there Work.
The black crows are a very down to earth band with a unique style in music and I like that.
The first time I heard them, it was “Remedy”..I lost my mind.
I LOVE THE WAY THEY SOUND , THE WAY THEY ARE, LOVE THEIR MUSIC
Steve Gorman's book and their actions since the release of this doco speaks volumes about these two. First two albums however, were brilliant.
Best band in the world!
Best studio ever? No WAY! Even Southern Harmony does not touch classics like Exile, Sticky, Bleed, Who's Next, or Quad, but maybe you meant bands today? Not sure they're "THE Best"?......BUT......

Sure there was a band before them making this kinda music.
Faces with Rod Stewart.
Remember the song: Stay with me ?
Love them, always have and always will
super cool. I have been listening for years and will continue.
Love love love these guys...where the hell have i been? Chris i love you ❤❤❤❤
I couldn't agree more with the Black Crowes ...I loved them th wholo time and now in October 2023
You have always been and will always nail it!🥂👩❤️👨🐕🐕
The very last great rock band from the USA, in fact the world.
Seen them 3 times, one of my favorite bands....I believe their one of, if not the best American rock band around right now....last show I saw was 2 weeks ago, as good as the first time i.saw them on the shake.your money maker tour, in a venue that held 400 ppl, before they really broke

Most brilliant underated band of all time
The Black Crowes are the only band that matters in the last 30 years
Pearl Jam couldn’t hold a candle to The Black Crowes
The Black Crowes jams and music is stellar

At 20:30 Chris nailed it..when it comes to 90% of today's so called music and it's creators. He absolutely nailed it.
Thanks for posting. #Love
Proper band: no ego, no ball shit and (damn straight) awesome music! I know a few bands that can fuse together more genres at any one time (The Band being one)- but these guys do it so effortlessly!!!

Some of those Horde and Further Festivals were so good
I respect The Black Crowes and what their music represents. But also, I like seeing when the Robinson brothers get along with each other. They have their issues, but they both have the same passion for music.
the pigtails were a heartbreaking style misstep... ...begging to have the tripe kicked out of him
Awesome! Thanks!
Thanks for this. I'm recently getting into the Black Crowes. They're really cool, but rock history seems to have mostly forgotten them.
Not really. I've seen them like 9 times and every show was packed with a nice mixture of all ages groups. Who cares about the billboard charts or music magazines
Ryan B. Exactly. That's completely about what the Crowes were. It was TRULY only about the music for them and still is.
so lucky the brothers have an understanding,,, tell em no regrets ever, never sold out
Love and let it go baby.
Sums it up. The best band in the land Fo sure...
..yes Chris Robinson, we all know what you mean. :D ;-)
Do we?

Here I am on Nov 2019, tix to the reunion tour in hand, dying because the show isn't until July next year!!!
Todd Lewis June for me!
Too bad the band are imposters/hired hands.
No thanks.
B J but have you tried dying mad about it? Let people enjoy things.

No problem, mate :-) Good news are for sharing ;-)
Love the Black Crows
The Black Crowes are an amazing band 😍 the Robinson brother's compliment each other perfectly musically 🎼 ❤️
Steve Gorman sounds like Ed Helm. Andy from The Office.
Amorica may be the greatest album in the history of rock n roll. Bold statement I know, but it deserves to be talked about like Bringing it all back Home, Sticky Fingers. Every picture tells a story, Abbey Road, etc...Its that good a record.
Amorica is good, but best album in the history if rock? It is not even the best Crowes album.
Lions is my favorite. Masterpiece of a record.

@@ericpigg2689 good to know cuz judging by your first comment you seemed to have no idea

Are you talking about when they play part of the interview before going to commercial break, and then repeat it later on?
I love Chris at 45.06 hahahaha Amazing band
They are bakc together and start touring in April
Hangout Music Festival in May!!
My mom Dated Chris Robinson back in her high school days lmao, I had never heard of these guys before she mentioned it to me but it’s pretty wild nevertheless.
Crowes come to South America, please.
why are some clips repeated?
His dad's reaction might explain how messed up he is.
You're crazy...and so am I. I am in total agreement.

eric pigg Right? He’s a self-important supercilious pompous gas bag hag but damn, their music is good.
kickazz band
What can you say about the crowes, they would have, Exile On Mainstreet for breakfast every morning.
25% of what Chris says is spot on....the rest....piffle.
9:55 why grandmother, what big eyes youve got
So how did the meeting go?
I thought the same thing. Her music? Yeah, did J Lo EVER wake out of a deep sleep with a line of verse than DEMANDED her to get up in the middle of the night and flesh out a song. Has she ever had a riff or melody appear from out of nowhere and compel her to drop EVERYTHING she was doing at that VERY moment and turn that simple riff into a song? Doubtful.
The only thing that ticks me off about the Black Crowes is the way they’ve tried so hard to distance themselves from their Southerness. The first two albums are straight up southern rock albums and that means they are indebted to the southern rock tradition. But ever since Southern harmony came out they seem to have been put off by the southern association.
Every time Rich speaks he gets interrupted by Chris within 5 seconds (at the most)...
Page is too awesome to sit around listen to two 9 year olds bicker, The Crows were lucky af to have him, it's too bad they dicked it up....
You know what I mean?
Who is the little girl with Rich Robinson?
you can be commercial and still have soul and make money.
And now they sell out with a backing band playing the money maker record... Please get Gorman and Marc on board..
Rich's voice is his guitar....Chris is the voice of the band...if your a guitarist you talk with your guitar ....its mystic not speak...
