Advantages: southern boogie, sounds like Rod Stewart

Disadvantages: Sounds like Rod Stewart

If you like southern rock/boogie with a more modern feel and a lot more attitude - then listen to the Black Crowes.

They hit the scene with their first album '$hake your Money Maker' back in 1990. Their lead singer Chris Robinson sounds a bit like Rod Stewart on the 'Jealous Again' track and he can certaintly belt out a tune. He is backed up by his brother Rich on lead guitar.

Like the great Lynyrd Skynyrd - they blend riffs with a piano accompa... (I can't spell the word - help !!).

The group caused some controversy when they released Amorica with a picture of a woman with public hair overflowing from her bikini bottoms. I think the American market had a 'cut version'.

Their latest outing is a partnership with Jimmy Page (of Led Zep) to produce the 'Live at the Greek' double album. This album contains a selection of Led Zep hits such as:

* Heartbreaker
* Whole lotta love
* Nobody's fault but mine
* Celebration Day

Its not a bad album - I'm not sure doing cover versions of classics is the way to go.

Give them a whirl or catch them in concert. For some reason they play live on a big carpet !!
