The Black Crowes
The Black Crowes Live Performance of She Talks To Angels from MTV Unplugged
In November 1990, The Black Crowes were riding high from the success of their debut album, 'Shake Your Money Maker,' which had been released earlier that year. This live recording of 'She Talks to Angels' captures a pivotal moment for the band just as they were beginning to gain mainstream recognition. Performing at the National Video Center in NYC, the band's soulful blend of rock and blues resonated with audiences, showcasing their raw talent and dynamic stage presence. Interestingly, this performance was part of MTV Unplugged, an iconic series that highlighted the acoustic side of popular music. It’s fascinating to note how their sound, deeply rooted in Southern rock, connected with fans during this transformative era for rock music in the early '90s. The heartfelt lyrics and Chris Robinson's passionate delivery in this live version remind us why it remains a beloved classic.
