The Black Crowes

In May 2001, The Black Crowes were riding high on the release of their sixth studio album, 'Lions,' which had come out just a year prior, in 2001. This live recording of 'Cypress Tree' at the iconic Greek Theatre showcases the band's signature blend of Southern rock and blues, encapsulating their freewheeling spirit. An interesting tidbit: the song was unaired from HBO's 'Reverb,' highlighting how they were still actively creating new material and playing live in a time when the music industry was changing rapidly. Featuring Chris Robinson’s soulful vocals and the dynamic guitar work of Rich Robinson, this performance reflects the band's synergy and prowess, giving fans a glimpse of their raw energy and connection on stage. This period was pivotal not just for the band, but for their loyal audience, eager to catch every note of their ever-evolving sound.
