Yes in the battle of the best black Crowes cover bands any band with Mark ford wins. And frankly rich too because his guitar sound is such a huge part of the crows. And rich still likes to rock hard. Whereas Chris is stuck in his dead mode and doesn’t have that passion and grit behind him to rock out like he used to.

I too am a big black Crowes fan. And I too am also very irritated with Chris. He is a fantastic singer no doubt about it. But reading the interviews and articles about the break up it’s very depressing to read Chris’s roll in all of this. Then when magpie salute started up he was disparaging calling them a crowes cover band. It was interesting to read Rich’s response, him saying that he is playi

Magpie are in the studio now. Working on their next album co-written by Rich and Marc.

QuoteKurt Sure, the set list is phenomenal but... I think you have to be flying high to enjoy this CRB. Not my bag, baby. When the Black Crowes were semi-sober they flat-out @#$%& cooked and were unbeatable live. When they weren't...eh. I agree. I am a big Crowes fan and usually really like Chris' work, but he hasn't aged well. The CRB just bore me. They sound like a m

Whatever happened to Page's solo album? Man the guy seems to have issues with fixating on Zep! What a waste of talent.

Rockman thanks for posting that Bowie article from down under! Great to see that picture of him so happy and healthy. How couldn't you be in Australia? He is missed greatly. I have had him on heavy rotation this last month. I love the A New Career in a New Town box set. His immortality on wax...low...heroes...lodger...scary monsters.... whew what a run that was!

Miss You. I was a huge Beatles fan, had just moved towns and started Middle School. I heard this song on the Radio and the announcer said, "The Rolling Stones new hot single in the top ten!" I knew the names of The Rolling Stones, but didn't know their music. It grabbed me, and I went out and bought (with my paper route money) my first Stones album Some Girls. I was hooked!

So true Koen. Liberal has nothing to do with being an honorable human that is against racism and intolerance.

Anyone can write long descriptions of this and that. But it was very clear from BV and to me what this post’s intent was. Racism? I think so. Intolerance, definitely.

Muslim women wear Hijabs, which is what that racist is referring to.

The west has a fixation on agism... where we often label relationships as inappropriate based on age. These are two consenting adults and they dig each other. Good for them! And good for Mick. Go for it you randy ole' geezer!

I totally disagree the word has been has been dumbed down! Ridiculous. Racism continues to be one of the greatest human scourge in the world. With leaders who seek to normalize racism and empower white supremacy. And fascism. It is a moment in history where people need to stand up and be counted and anytime any semblance of racism rears it's horrid head people need to raise their fist and de

Yeah I am about 30 pages in and I really like how this is set up with interviews from folks who knew him or encountered him. Very cool! I was happy to see some stuff from Geoff MacCormack. He's a great guy and was so friendly and got me backstage passes to meet Bowie. I will never forget that kindness! Thanks Geoff!

That’s your opinion. Great reinterpretation of a classic song that they made into a great new wave dance single. Fantastic that a band took that song and made it their own. Without slavishly copying it.

Zip code was #1 for me. More road tested and rehearsed. . And doing a lot from Sticky Fingers. Great tour! The Detroit show was one of the best Stoned shows I’ve seen.

The fact that Wenner would not sign off on it makes me want to read it. It leads me to think that this author probably hit close to the bone. Which means it’ll be more insightful and honest.

The New York Times recently had a very interesting article about the writer and his relationship with the main subject. And now how the Writer was being very open about Jaan’s sexuality and personal life. So much so he would not endorse the book and say that it was official. Even though he worked with the Author for several years. That excerpt seems pretty interesting I am interested in readin

WOW! I can't believe that was twenty years ago! I remember the album coming out while I was working in Venezuela. I loved it! I was sad because I would be able to make the tour then they announced the No Security shows in Miami. Only a four hour flight from Venezuela, so I got a friend who lived in Miami to pick up four tickets and it was a phenomenal show! I was very impressed they did the

He is fantastic! If you haven't seen him before it is definitely a good show to go to. However, I have seen him a lot in the last 10 years and his show needs a make-over. For the most part he tells the same stories verbatim.Exactly the same. And his core show hasn't changed. With the same ending. He does change four or five songs every tour, but he should mix it up even more for the amo

I don't know, not that great to me. I mean I watched Sons all the way through and they had a habit of using classic songs throughout the series. However, they all sounded a bit the same. Somewhat generic and countrified, but in a glossy way. There is no dread in this version. No lust and not raunchy. Too sanitised and commercial sounding.
