At the time of their 1990 debut, the kind of rock & roll the Black Crowes
specialized in was sorely out of style. Only Guns N' Roses came close to
approximating a vintage Stones-style raunch, but they were too angry
and jagged to pull it off completely. The Black Crowes, on the other
hand, replicated that Stonesy swagger and Faces boogie perfectly.
Vocalist Chris Robinson appropriated the sound and style of vintage Rod
Stewart, while brother Rich Robinson fused Keith Richards' lean guitar
attack with Ron Wood's messy rhythmic sense. At their best, the Black
Crowes echoed classic rock without slavishly imitating their influences,
and the band's nostalgic sound helped foster a long, popular career.
The Robinson brothers originally formed the Black Crowes in Georgia in
1984. By the time the group released its first album with 1990's Shake
Your Money Maker, the lineup comprised vocalist Chris Robinson,
guitarist Rich Robinson, bassist Johnny Colt, guitarist Jeff Cease, and
drummer Steve Gorman. "Jealous Again," the first single from Shake Your
Money Maker, was a moderate hit, but it was the band's cover of Otis
Redding's "Hard to Handle" that made the Black Crowes a multi-platinum
success. "Hard to Handle" climbed its way into the Top 40, propelling
the album into the Top Ten along the way. The acoustic ballad "She Talks
to Angels" became the band's second Top 40 hit in the spring of 1991,
and Shake Your Money Maker eventually sold over three million copies.
The Black Crowes delivered their second album, The Southern Harmony and
Musical Companion, in the spring of 1992. It entered the charts at
number one but lacked strong hits, as none of the singles cracked the
Top 40 and only "Remedy" and "Thorn in My Pride" made the Top 100.
Nevertheless, the band established itself as a popular concert
attraction that summer, selling out theaters across America. During
1992, the band added keyboardist Eddie Harsch as a permanent member. The
Black Crowes' third album, Amorica, arrived in late 1994 and debuted in
the Top Ten. Even so, none of the singles from the album made a
significant dent, and the album slipped from the charts after going
gold.
Three Snakes and One Charm, the group's fourth album, was released in
July 1996. The album quickly slipped out of the Top 50 after making a
strong entrance, yet it also received the best reviews of any Crowes
album since The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion. Guitarist Marc
Ford was fired from the Black Crowes in August 1997, and bassist Johnny
Colt left the lineup in order to form the Brand New Immortals. With Rich
Robinson handling all guitar parts, the band recorded and released By
Your Side before collaborating with one of the world's most celebrated
guitarists, Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page. This partnership was captured by
the concert album Live at the Greek, an eclectic mix of newly recorded
Zeppelin covers and additional classic blues cuts. Greatest Hits
1990-1999: A Tribute to a Work in Progress, a 16-track best-of
compilation, was released several months later in 2000.
Don Was was enlisted to produce the band's new album, 2001's Lions,
whose lyrics were influenced by Chris Robinson's highly publicized
relationship with actress Kate Hudson. A month-long summer tour with
Oasis -- dubbed "the Tour of Brotherly Love" due to the prevalence of
siblings in both bands -- followed in June. All was apparently not well
with the group, however, and the band announced its decision to go on
hiatus in January 2002. Drummer Steve Gorman was fired, and Chris
Robinson began planning a solo career. It was Rich Robinson who was
first out of the gate with a solo project, though, releasing Paper in
2004. In 2005, however, the Black Crowes reunited for a show at San
Francisco's Fillmore, a concert that was released in both CD and DVD
formats as Freak 'N' Roll...Into the Fog in 2006. That year also saw the
release of The Lost Crowes, which contained two previously unreleased
albums, 1993's Tall (parts of which were seen in Amorica and other
places) and the 1997 never-before-heard Band. Following a series of
lineup changes, the retooled band hit the road for a proper tour before
setting to work on their first studio effort in seven years. Joined by
newcomer Luther Dickinson, guitarist and co-founder of the North
Mississippi Allstars, the Black Crowes combined the rootsy appeal of
their early work with a newfound political awareness on 2008's Warpaint.
A live performance of the album, available as both a DVD and a two-disc
CD set titled Warpaint Live, appeared a year later in 2009. Before the
Frost/Until the Freeze arrived that same year, marking the band's eighth
studio effort and gathering warm reviews.
The Black Crowes continued their prolific streak with 2010's Croweology,
a double-disc album that featured new acoustic recordings of the band's
past work. The album's release was bittersweet, though, as it coincided
with a farewell tour followed by another indefinite hiatus. Rich
Robinson released his second solo album, Through a Crooked Sun, in 2011
and his brother Chris released two albums with his new band, the Chris
Robinson Brotherhood, in 2012. The Crowes lurched back to life in 2013,
announcing a spring tour and releasing the live album Wiser for the Time
on vinyl and MP3.
