Mr. Crowe's Garden
The Black Crowes are an American rock band formed in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1984. Their discography includes eight studio albums, four live albums and several charting singles. The band was signed to Def American Recordings in 1989 by producer George Drakoulias and released their debut album, '' Shake Your Money Maker'', the following year. Their follow-up, '' The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion'', reached the top of the ''Billboard'' 200 in 1992. The albums '' Amorica'' (1994), '' Three Snakes and One Charm'' (1996), '' By Your Side'' (1999), and '' Lions'' (2001) followed, with each showing moderate popularity but failing to capture the chart successes of the band's first two albums. After a hiatus from 2002 to 2005, the band regrouped and toured for several years before releasing '' Warpaint'' in 2008, which reached number 5 on the Billboard chart. Following the release of their greatest hits/acoustic double album '' Croweology'' in August 2010, the band started a 2 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Atlanta, Georgia
Atlanta ( ) is the capital and most populous city of the U.S. state of Georgia. It is the seat of Fulton County, the most populous county in Georgia, but its territory falls in both Fulton and DeKalb counties. With a population of 498,715 living within the city limits, it is the eighth most populous city in the Southeast and 38th most populous city in the United States according to the 2020 U.S. census.

Sven Pipien
Sven Pipien (born 30 May 1967, in Hanover, Germany) is a musician best known as the bassist of the southern rock band The Black Crowes. Biography Sven Pipien began his musical career playing bass with Atlanta-based rock outfit Mary, My Hope. The band recorded one full-length LP in 1989 (''Museum'') and one EP in 1990 (''Suicide Kings'') and garnered enough college radio popularity to earn them opening slots on headlining tours for Love and Rockets and Jane's Addiction. Their style, which included elements which would later be heard with the emergence of grunge in the early-to-mid 1990s, was out of place with much of the mainstream music scene at the time and the band split up in 1991. A compilation, ''Monster Is Bigger Than The Man,'' appeared shortly after, featuring four previously released songs and four unissued cuts. Pipien reappeared in 1997, when he replaced original bassist Johnny Colt in multi-platinum rock act The Black Crowes. He would spend the next year performing li ...

Croweology
''Croweology'' is an acoustic-based album by American rock band The Black Crowes, released on August 3, 2010. The set includes newly recorded versions of nineteen songs from the band's career, covering their albums from '' Shake Your Money Maker'' to ''Lions'', plus a cover of the Chris Ethridge and Gram Parsons song "She", in mostly-acoustic arrangements. Critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine stated the Crowes capture "the sound of seasoned veterans still finding new ways to play old favorites" and the double album is "a generous, entertaining gift to the fans who have stayed true throughout the years". This would be the last recorded album to feature lead guitarist, Luther Dickinson. ''Croweology'' was the last studio record released by the band before their hiatus lasting from 2013 to 2020.

Warpaint (The Black Crowes Album)
''Warpaint'' is the seventh studio album by American rock band The Black Crowes.

Lions (album)
''Lions'' is the sixth studio album by American rock band The Black Crowes. It was released in 2001 as their first album on V2 Records following their departure from Columbia, and is their only studio album to feature guitarist Audley Freed. ''Lions'' was recorded in New York City in January and February of that year, and was produced by Don Was.

The album debuted on the ''Billboard'' 200 at its peak position of 20, selling more than 53,000 copies in its first week. ''Lions'' received mixed reviews; although the overall sound of the album generally garnered praise, a frequent complaint was the lack of "memorable" songs. The critics who rated ''Lions'' lowest considered it a poor imitation of the band's influences, such as Led Zeppelin. The band supported ''Lions'' with two North American tours (one with Oasis co-head ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
By Your Side (The Black Crowes Album)

Three Snakes And One Charm
''Three Snakes and One Charm'' is the fourth studio album by American rock band The Black Crowes. It was released on July 23, 1996. Background During the "Amorica or Bust" tour of 1995, many of the relationships within The Black Crowes had soured, including that of brothers Chris and Rich Robinson. "We just fucking hated each other," Rich noted in the September 1996 issue of ''Acoustic Guitar'' magazine. "It's just a normal phase bands go through. There was a lot of emotional baggage, and everyone got on each other's nerves. We almost broke up a few times, but finally we all let go and moved on." Chris echoed his brother's sentiment in the March 1996 issue of ''Guitar World'' magazine. "Everyone goes through changes," he stated. "The trick is trying to remember that and keep it together, and having respect for everyone and not judging people because you're all goin' through changes. Perseverance is the thing. You have to get your ego in place." With this new attitude in plac ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Amorica
''Amorica'' (stylized as ''amorica.'') is the third studio album by American rock band The Black Crowes. Spawned from the band's unreleased, incompleted, scrapped ''Tall'' album, ''Amorica'' was released November 1, 1994, on American Recordings and reissued in the UK in 1998 with two bonus tracks. ''Amorica'' reached gold status in the United States, shipping 500,000 copies. The record cover notably featured a close-up photo of the pelvic region of a woman wearing a United States flag thong with pubic hair showing at the top of the thong. The cover photo was taken from the cover of the July 1976 issue of ''Hustler'' magazine. The album with this cover was subsequently banned from chain stores like Walmart and Kmart, resulting in the cover being censored with a solid black background, displaying only the thong. Other songs recorded during the ''Amorica'' sessions were "Feathers", "Tied Up and Swallowed" and "Chevrolet" (a Taj Mahal cover). These tracks were later released as B-sid ...
