Warpaint Live

> 24 hourThe Black Crowes, in my mind, are one of the greatest rock and roll bands of the past 40 years. Their commitment to making their own sound, approach to rock and roll, and endless touring has inspired so many great bands. So, when they finally got back together in 2005, it was a joyous occasion. Of course, it took 3 years for them to muster up an album, but it was worth the wait, as Warpaint ranks among their best work, a classic ranked along with Southern Harmony, Amorica, and Three Snakes & One Charm. In early 2009, it was mentioned (with very little fanfare) that the Crowes would be officially releasing one of their One Night Only shows, where in they play the Warpaint album in its entirety, along with a few other gems. This was great news, as the Crowes have definetly thrived on playing in front of a live audience. To me, this is how Warpaint should be heard. Live, with a sense of urgency and magic in the making. Each song gets coated with a little more humanity and each song breathes more. Walk Believer Walk slows to a crawl, feeling more thunderous then on the album. Oh Josephine gets jammed out with a joyous Allman-esque lead work by Luther Dickinson. Wee Who See The Deep is a highlight, with Chris Robinson playing guitar and exchanging leads between Luther and his younger brother, Rich. The covers and older songs are a joy too. Poor Elijah, the Delaney & Bonnie standard, gets a Crowes treatment with extended guitar solos and wonderful vocal work between Chris and the 2 female black singers, Charity & Mona. Darling Of The Underground Press is pretty kicking too, an older song dating to the Shake Your Moneymaker days. Bad Luck Blue Eyes Goodbye is one of the most moving songs Ive ever heard, and in its live setting, its an absolute joy. Dont Know Why, Torn & Frayed, and Hey Grandma all get the Crowes treatment. Excellent country-tinged harmonies, throbbing rhythm, and extended amazing guitar solos. Its what the Crowes do best, and continue to do so 20 years down the line. This is a superb live document of a band back in the game. Buy it now!

> 24 hourI loved Warpaint when it came out and as an avid Crowes fan I bought it immediately. With a line up change within the band it left me worried, but the band is back and in my opinion the best they have been in a long time. Its nice to hear that Chris hasnt lost his step as he shows it right away in Walk Believer Walk. The cover songs are well done and covering Delaney Bramletts Oh Elijah was awesome as the Crowes fit the song perfectly. If you havent bought Warpaint buy this and if you have, I would still recommend getting this the six extra tracks and the band live is well worth it. Great CD.
