I know that. Johnny was with them longer than that, though. Just wondered why he quit. Never heard why.
EDIT FOUND IT:
ABC: Why did you leave The Black Crowes?
JC: A couple of things. The direction of the band wasn’t the direction I wanted to go. The music, in my opinion, at that point (1997) wasn’t very good. The lifestyle people were leading wasn’t for me. I had gotten sober and I needed to protect my sobriety. Creatively, the whole thing was stagnant and repetitive so it was time to vote for myself. It was time to invest in me, not in the group or that business anymore.

Jeff Cease my favorite opening guitar lick and solo on Sister Luck - Rich really conjured up Sway.

Yes, and he was back in 2005. His contributions, at least for me, are key for the musical success of the Crowes. The sound with him is awesome. Without him, not

IMO, Jeff Cease and Luther Dickinson were just as distinctive for the band's sound. Every note mattered. Ford is very good, of course, but he uses a lot of space to express little.

Huh?
I won’t begrudge you for your opinion, you are entitled to it. It is the first I’ve ever heard of someone preferring Cease or Dickinson over Ford...except of course if you are Cease or Dickinson.
