The Black Crowes

Live At The Greek

Break out the air-guitars

Review Score: StarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStar (8/10)
Before this album, I'd already written off the Black Crowes as nothing more than a band that would be amazing if they just stuck to covers, instead of relying on ham-handed Stones/Zep re-hashes. Say what you like, the critics were never pissed off at the BCs because they were influenced by the Stones, they were pissed off because there really wasn't a shred of originality or uniqueness in their delivery.

As for Jimmy Page, we all know the (mostly) rotten fruits he's reaped since the demise of Zeppelin. And at his age, he can't possibly be expected to live up to his own past, so he doesn't try. Backed by the Crowes however, he can pick his spots and still relatively shine.

As a result, the album is great fun, with particular emphasis placed on the second CD, which (from start to finish) is loaded with energy, updated riffs, and--let's face it--wistful memories. From the blues covers, to the Zep b-sides (wise choice), the result is one of the best live albums of the 90s.
