quarter23cd Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I still have not pulled the trigger on Live Warpaint. That album has just not worked for me yet. I would like to hear "Torn and Frayed" however. I will probably still pick it up at some point because I always end up getting whatever the Crowes put out.I haven't picked up the live version of this yet, though I will go out on a limb and say that Warpaint clicked for me better than anything they've done since Amorica.

Moss Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 A previous band I was in used to play this one. Great one to jam on: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 I wonder if he still has that Gold Top that Rich gave him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I wonder if he still has that Gold Top that Rich gave him. Good question. I have not actually heard whether they get along at all. I assume they don't "speak". I don't know how you give up a guitar like that. Even though the gold tops are supposed to be the cheap Les Pauls, painted to cover the inferior wood.

Analogman Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 He gave it to him the first time he joined the band. It was an old one, I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=525232 Someone uploaded a London show from a few days ago. I wonder if the Black Crowes are going let Etree seed their shows again or if this show will be pulled soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 I saw that. It's been up for a while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Wow, this is a new one for me. Not sure where or when this was recorded but enjoy (download the mp3), sorry it could not be a FLAC Analogman: Black Crowes doing Kokomo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mjpuczko Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 that was from chicago, halloween. forget the year. 2005 maybe? the year before they dressed up as ac/dc for the first few songs. more info from crowesbase Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 They called themselves "The Bitch Boys". I've never really heard the show, nor do I want to. I get the feeling they were making fun of The Beach Boys there. Which is a shame, as there are probably a few BB songs they could do pretty well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mjpuczko Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 i don't think it was a joke at all. maybe kokomo was but the ac/dc was a definite tribute. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 I don't know - maybe I am going by things I read about the show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Which is a shame, as there are probably a few BB songs they could do pretty well.I've got a recording of it and they do a decent enough job on the covers to open the show to tell me that they were doing them in earnest. Just havin' a good time, and all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just havin' a good time, and all. That's kind of what I thought or at least hoped. From the one song I heard, they obviously spent some time learning it well and not half ass.

Analogman Posted June 6, 2009 Author Share Posted June 6, 2009 From Jambands.com: The Black Crowes Stuck Inside Utopia Tour The Black Crowes will hit the road this August for the Stuck Inside Utopia tour. The shows are said to feature over two hours of music culled from the forthcoming new release and the band’s deep catalogue. The run will kick off with an appearance at Vienna, VA’s Wolf Trap/The Filene Center on August 25 and will come to a close October 3 at Atlanta’s Chastain Park Amphitheatre. Along the way the group will play three shows with Levon Helm: Boston, 8/27, Atlantic City, NY, 8/29, Central Park Summerstage, 9/2. The Crowes recently record a new studio album in the drummer’s famed barn and will also play a series of dates with The Band visionary this July. Truth & Salvage Co. will support the group for most of its late summer run. The Black Crowes: Before the Frost... and …Until The Freeze Earlier this year the Black Crowes invited fans to join them at Levon Helm Studios while they recorded a new album. As it turns out, the Crowes had enough material for two discs. Before the Frost... is set for a September 1 release and will offer 11 songs including "Good Morning Captain," "I Ain’t Hiding" and "Houston Don’t Dream About Me." Folks who purchase the disc will be given a download code for a second release, …Until The Freeze, which presents nine songs, eight originals and a cover of Stephen Stills' "So Many Times." The band will gig steadily this summer, with their next gig at New Hampshire's Hampton Beach Casino on June 18. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Moss Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I Ain't Hiding (Free legal download from The Black Crowes Official Website). Wow...not sure what to think...kind of starts out like "Girlfriend in a coma" and proceeds to sound like disco or something. Interesting. I wonder if the new album is going to sound like that.

Analogman Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 I think it sounds like a Rolling Stones Some Girls era disco song. I don't care for it. I don't think the new album(s) will sound like that. At least, the songs from the one show we heard did not sound like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mjpuczko Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 listening now. this doesn't sound anything like i expected. especially from their comments about it being more country/organic. i kinda dig it actually. edit:that solo around 3:40 kills! i like this quite a bit. odd sound for them though.

calvino Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Definitely agree about the guitar solo at the 3:40 mark. I like the bass run at the end, too. Good tune. Thanks for the link. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
