“What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there,” he says. “All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they’re happy. There’s an enormous market for people who can’t tell one note from another.” - Keef

Yep. I'm a fan since 1990. I think Jackie Greene is going to be a nice addition to the lineup. I do wish they had a new album...

Southern Harmony and Three Snakes And One Charm are amazing. Those albums aside, I think they are a bit overrated. Don't get me wrong: I like that band, but they are good not great. Saw them live 6 or 7 times. Most of the time in Paradiso, Amsterdam. Lost track of them after By Your Side.

Warpaint is one of the greatest records of the past 30 years, as is Southern Harmony.

Not sure if I'd call it a masterpiece, but far superior to Warpaint. 

The Black Crowes are coming to a town near you in the US this spring (at least on the east coast) and will be releasing an album of songs tracked during their NYC run in 2010. 

Here is the press release:

THE BLACK CROWES
RETURN TO THE ROAD IN 2013
WITH THE FIRST LEG OF THEIR
“LAY DOWN WITH NUMBER 13” WORLD TOUR
LAUNCHING MARCH 24

BAND ALSO ANNOUNCE THE MARCH 19 VINYL AND DIGITAL RELEASE OF THE LIVE ‘WISER FOR THE TIME’
ON SILVER ARROW/MEGAFORCE RECORDS

THE BLACK CROWES will return to the road in 2013 with their “Lay Down With Number 13” world tour. The first leg will encompass dates in the U.K. March 24-30 and the U.S. April 2-May 4. Tickets for this first leg go on sale January 11 at 10:13 AM Local Time and ticket link information will be available on January 1 at www.blackcrowes.com. Additional dates will be announced soon.

The band has also announced the March 19 vinyl release of the live WISER FOR THE TIME (Silver Arrow/Megaforce Records). Its eight sides will contain 26 songs–15 acoustic and 11 electric–from the band’s five-night, sold-out NYC performances in the fall of 2010. These never-released-before versions will also be available as a double album digital download.

Chris Robinson (lead vocals, guitar), Rich Robinson (guitar, vocals), Steve Gorman (drums), Sven Pipien (bass) and Adam Macdougall (keyboards) of THE BLACK CROWES “are thrilled to announce the addition of our good friend Jackie Greene” on guitar and vocals.

The band is offering via their website a free mobile web app. It includes a free download of the acoustic version of
“Under a Mountain” performed live in NYC in 2010. This offering is exclusive and not included on WISER FOR THE TIME.

The first leg of the “Lay Down With Number 13” tour begins March 24 in Manchester in the U.K. and will run through May 4 in New Orleans.

Stay tuned for a VIP Ticketing announcement.

Saw them a few years ago on a double bill with Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers in Berkeley. They put on a cool show.

Sway?
http://youtu.be/VtOTOmiQKpc

Dry bread on the table
Burn the mill salt the paper

And its easy pick-ins on Locust Street
There's no place to hide
And you can't find love on Locust Street
But you can hear the sunrise crying
Can't you hear the sunrise crying
A song for you alone

Sad eyes, weeping willow
Black cat blues, blacked out window

And its easy pick-ins on Locust Street
There's no place to hide
And you can't find love on Locust Street
But you can hear the sunrise crying
Can't you hear the sunrise crying
A song for you alone

Just a glimpse of what love could be
Once a dream that I owned
What of many lonely longing souls
At least I'm not alone
Well at least I'm not alone

Ripe off the vine now lay rotten
Like a dead end street forever forgotten

And its easy pick-ins on Locust Street
There's no place to hide
And you can't find love on Locust Street
But you can hear the sunrise crying
Can't you hear the sunrise crying
A song for you alone

I wish they would bring Marc Ford back on guitar, he is their Mick Taylor in my opinion! I love that five or six CD set called, Crowes Covers, they do a bunch of great cover songs!

The Marc Ford ship has sailed. And besides, they already have a guitarist lined up for this tour. Jackie Greene is the new guy.

What happened to Luther Dickinson? That lineup really started to cook on the last tour/album.

Luther has commitments thru the summer. Rest of lineup is in tact. Shows will be good. Rich Robinson is a beast. His sound is amazing. They've often changed who the 2nd guitar player is along side of him. But his tone is great. Thats the sound. He carries it no matter who else is on board.

Its 2013. Crowes roll.
