Chris Robinson seems like a total prick.

Great band with no career defining album, IMO. A lot of good songs on all of their records, but a lot of filler too.
They were great live, saw them open for Aerosmith at Alpine Valley in probably 1990, and I saw them headline the Aragon
a little while later, and motherfucking JELLYFISH was the opener. AWESOME SHOW!!!!!!!
Steve Gorman, the drummer, has a sports show on Fox radio, I used to listen to the podcast all the time.
He is one chill dude, and a great drummer.

they were like kyle orton. great backup (or opening act) but not really a prime time show.

I would classify "Shake Your Moneymaker" as career defining in that it was the only album that most people could associate with the band.

Let me tell you, these guys sure were a band. I'll never forget the way they wrote and performed songs for people to listen to.

Yeah, I guess you're right, I kinda worded it wrong.
I guess I meant that they had no really front to back 'masterpiece'.
And to Ike, I'd have to disagree, they are one of the best live bands I've ever seen.
I just checked setlist.fm.
They went from playing to a sold out Alpine Valley opening for Aerosmith July 21 1990 to headlining a sold out Aragon Ballroom on May 17 1991.
They were a killer live band.
God, I love this song.

JELLYFISH! One of my top 10 favorite bands. Was this the Spilt Milk tour? Was Jason Falkner on the tour?

Whenever I watch Almost Famous, I think Stillwater is an homage to the Black Crowes. However that's probably just in my head and has something to do with Kate Hudson inexplicably marrying Chris Robinson.

No, still Bellybutton, and yes, Falkner was there.

how did they do it? did they hang upsidedown in the doorway and masturbate while writing the lyrics on a notepad with their teeth?

Every song on that album is great. I still listen to it often.

Their 2nd album, The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion, is my favorite. No Speak No Slave and My Morning Song rule.

Yes, that was probably their best album. Honorable mention to Amorica.

Amorica gets 50% less love if it had different cover art.

Horsehead off By Your Side is probably my favorite Crowes tune.

This version with Jimmy Page kills.

For as many things I've found, seen, and heard on the internet, for the life of me I have never been able to find the special version of "Hard to Handle" that had horns playing in the little hook/break sections of the song ... a radio remix to 'pop' the song on the radio, so to speak ... off some promo CD or something ... gave it a sound closer to Otis Redding's version.

It's my white whale. Well, actually I'm my own white whale; bad comparison.

Point is I've found pretty much everything I could ever want music-wise, except for the damnable version.

Meanie.

Calling CH or Telegram Sam ... seems they might be the best resources off the top of my head ... probably a few others ... Eaglo?

Hard To Handle (horns remix) is only available on a Promo CD

That's all I could find online.
