A Conversation with The Black Crowes and George Drakoulias - The Start of the Crowes 

Garbage Stones wannabe mediocre bar band. Stop it

Saw them on the Amorica tour, they were on fire, amazing!

absolutely, I saw them in Buffalo NY at an old theater that has a steam punk vibe...fit the bad at that time perfectly, I was mesmerized... to this day one of the best shows I have ever seen.

OMG I freaking LOVE them so much!

By commenting and watching this video, u just paid this channel to watch this video, dream come true 👍

@@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery try harder not to be that guy.

I agree 100%. Unfortunately, that's one reunion that'll never happen, thanks to Gorman's tell-all bio. Gorman predicted what would come though. As we all recall, the Robinsons were at each other's throats and Gorman predicted that, after his book was released, the brothers would reconcile, reform the Crowes, and make a big $$$ grab without him in the wake of his book.

They need money. A hole will do anything for money. They had one hit with an obscure blues song. They were a Stones copy/wannabe bar band. F them

Well Marc and Eddie weren't even in the band yet on SYMM....✌️

I guarantee you they’ll never discuss former band members anymore. Especially Steve.

@@TheRoomfull Fair, but they're here supposedly to promote SHAMC. They have been talking about SYMM for 5 years now. It's tired and boring.

@davidmoorhead Fair enough. I guess I was coming from the angle of in this specific video, starting from the beginning and leading into SYMM. Why would they mention Eddie or Marc at this point? I think it's as equally boring all the nonstop nonsense about past band members....this band was NEVER built for lifelong bandmates (most aren't) from the start. I'm still glad the key Songwriters are continuing on. Peace Anyways ✌️

@@TheRoomfull But the whole thing here was to promote the SHAMC set. They did SYMM. They released the box, did the tour. It's finished. Why even tread on this ground anymore. This isn't an Anthology project. The first video in this "series" was to kick off conversation about Sting Me. Fine. Now we're back to SYMM and before? While I always want to say that I'm shocked with the decision making in this camp, I stopped actually saying it in 1998 after Chris started to wear ridiculous make up and sequins. And it's not really nonstop nonsense in regard to past members. Ask the Stones about that. Mick Taylor lives rent free in the minds of all of us Stones fans for however much we love Ron (who, in his own right, is a great player and good guy). Rich and Chris could absolutely tie a knot on the conversation if they just addressed it themselves and mentioned the old guys, their positive contributions, and celebrate a Marc guitar solo without the awkward celebration of the Sting Me cowbell when the solo finally did hit. I mean, you do see how odd and awkward that last video was, right? You're telling me they couldn't possibly give those guys their due? Just so it's clear - instead of saying that was a monster moment in our recorded history they decided that they needed more fucking cowbell. Process that, man. More fucking cowbell. Rich and Chris ARE an SNL bit at this point.

Go away then

He’s just a drummer, original member..ya..but nothing special that can’t or hasn’t been replaced…big deal, he wrote a book.. now he’s king s@&t….PLEASE

They’re not gonna discuss former members. Rich and Chris are too egomaniacal, and think they’re the only Black Crowes that matter. The Black Crowes are just a nostalgic act now. Playing the hits for a paycheck. Read Steve’s book if you want some Ed stories, and a glimpse of how money played into Chris’ decision making.

@@deejay7060 That's what I say to anyone who likes the Black Crowes - great band, read Steve's book.

Not a bad book but too much hating on the brothers, from chapter to chapter.

@@ziggypop79 Fans of the whole band, not just the brothers, appreciated the honesty.

@@ziggypop79 There was nothing hateful about anything he wrote. It’s his history of the band the way he saw it. The brothers may have made great music, but they were jerk offs as human beings.

Sorry, THAT SHOULD SAY WORE OUT THEIR FIRST ALBUM. I'M VOICE TEXTING AND SCREW UP FREQUENTLY.

I beg to differ, Amorica was almost as good as SH&MC, and Before the Frost After the Freeze is amazing (with Luther D killing it on lead). My least favorite is Three Snakes, but even that had some good tracks on it. All in all, there’s good to great tracks on all their albums. I saw them twice live, in Vegas at the hard rock in 95, and in the Bay Area 26 years later, great live band too!

Good riddance...don't let the door hit ya. 👍

I’ve seen them twice the last 3 years and it was awesome

@@t.c.189 and the band they have playing behind them are phenomenal musicians it's just not the black crowes. That is what is wrong with people in the world today you read a statement assumed your own narrative and then showed your stupidity

The Black Crowe and his brother band.

Can see your point but the other guys wrote themselves out the story.
