when i was a tween/teen in the 90s listening to a ton of alt rock radio the crowes were a hated band because their transparent rolling stones aping did nothing for me. when i listen to their singles now they're obviously a bunch of talented musicians doing exactly what they intended to do and my feelings have softened a lot.

half of that first record is solid af, for exactly the reasons I hated it at the time. more bands should just do stones/faces schtick.I’ll also stan for their cover of “oh sweet nuthin,” at the height of their replacement replacement replacement lead gtr jam band days. surprised the shit out of me but it’s grebt.

oh man yes, that cover is A+

Friend of mine and I did a remix for them that Chris liked. Rest of band were against it. It was disco-y etc etc. Never released. Anyway, Chris was a nice guy when we met him and I like a lot of the live stuff with Jimmy Page.

Cherry Red is putting out a Georgia Satellites box set next week with all their albums plus assorted B-sides, etc.
Georgia Satellites > Black Crowes, is what I'm saying here.

Rich was WAY TOO LOUD at the show at the Beacon I saw 10 years ago

don't they have a Gallagher brothers vibe with each other?

They don't sound that different to me; the Satellites had Big 80s Drums and the Crowes had the piano too loud in the mix (the piano is what turns me off to them), but they're in the same neighborhood. What I like best about the Satellites is the way the guitars are panned hard left and hard right.

I'd never played an album by these dudes until yesterday (despite liking everything I'd heard on the radio). Played the second one, and while tbh I couldn't make it through the whole thing, it sounded pretty good!

Opened up this thread in Flagging to reply "B&B with a little weed," but apparently I had already drafted that post during some previous revive and thought better of it.

Yikes @ Ned's first post itt
Anyway, just dropped in to rep for 'By Your Side,' which iirc came and went really quickly in 1998. It's a damn good record, provided you like what the band does in the first place.

Soooo many walking databases of Grateful Dead live show minutia are also walking databases of sport ball minutia.

It’s either them or like drivin & cryin, but they might have been first band I ever saw live as a (mostly autonomous) teenhonestly they cooked

Maybe because it was the first band you saw live and you were a teen

v true. I think I also saw Dylan in a theater in Jackson MS with friends and we were ‘omg he’s so old and doesn’t have much longer. Glad I caught him’he was 52 fmllllllllol

51*
which was a hilarious story I recounted for my friends earlier this spring when we saw him (80???)

remedy is a good song. i love how they bring it back to those descending chord parts over and over.
― call all destroyer, Sunday, 17 July 2022 03:20 (one year ago) link
Only album I've heard is Three Snakes and One Charm (the "eclectic" one). It was mostly boring but there was some interesting if rudimentary psych-ish things happening on a few songs but idk which.

I got the same impression from that record. I think there was an electric sitar on one song…?I like parts of Amorica, but for the most part their records have the same problem as Paul Weller’s mid-‘90s records: they want to show how they’re influenced by certain bands/approaches, but didn’t write strong enough material/come up with exciting enough arrangements to transcend “pastiche”…and in too many instances, they don’t even get to “pastiche,” just aping the surface elements of vague impressions of the Faces (Crowes) or Traffic (Weller).I will say that “Wiser Time” is by far the best thing the Crowes ever did, despite the hackneyed premise.

Listening to “twice as hard” (ahem) and “jealous again” and they cook better than they have any right to. The sons Phil Rudd / Cosmo style 4/4 helps a lot
