I assume
@Yer Ol' Uncle D has similar thoughts to me on this that if it’s just the mercs from 1972, it isn’t really the Crowes. I’ll be keen to listen to it, but have a hard time getting as stoked as I should.
I assume the song isn’t actually up anywhere since it is presaves everywhere? It isn’t up at Qobuz.
Which Crowes are you talking about?
The 1st Demo Crowes including Rich, Chris, Jeff Sullivan?
The Mr. Crowes Garden Quartet?
The first 5-piece: Robinson x2, Gorman, Johnny Colt and Jeff Cease?
The Crowes before Harsch with Chuck Leavell on keys?
The Crowes with Harsch and Cease or with Harsch when Cease was replaced by Marc Ford?
The Crowes with Audley and Pipen?
The Crowes with Greg Rzab?
The Crowes with Ford and Pipen but not Gorman ?
The Crowes with Luther Dickenson?
I mean there have been so many lineup changes over the years.
And since Eddie Harsch died - I'm never getting back what I consider to be the best lineup anyway: Long Haired Super-Beard Jesus Christ Impersonator Chris; Reliable Rich and Steve; Bluesy Marc Ford and Cowboy Johnny Colt.
Personally, I could give a
who they roll out so long as I'm getting some of that Hardest Working Band In Rock N' Roll sound that seems to have gone extinct.
And while we are on the topic - and I know its not the hot takes thread - but Steve Gorman's drums are mid bro. They ain't' dog-water, but they ain't bussin' either.
