The Crowes have always had this insane gift for making a song their own while still capturing and paying homage to the spirit of the original version. I saw Chris's side project recently do Sugaree and Tough Mama and it was the same story. I have alot of respect for a band that's able to keep their influences alive by introducing them to their audience.
Have you seen the video of them doing the Velvet Underground's song "Sweet Nuthin"? Rich Robinson sings lead instead of Chris Robinson and I was blown away by how great Rich Robinson sang. He's got a higher voice so they thought that he was the right person to sing it and he knocks it out of the park. You should check it out..
Love the Crowes and Robinson’s , but have to admit there have been “better” eras (band members/ chemistry etc.) and there have been “good eras” - the former , they had some absolutely amazing moments
I agree but they are brothers and sometimes brothers don't get along. Chris seemed a lot happier when he became a single dude, all sorts of ups and downs. They still are the best of their time. 💞✌️❤️🌼@@hazor777
Wow! Didn't know they did such great covers of Joe's work. I felt like I was watching and listening to Mad Dogs all over again but with new energy! I'm a long-time fan of Joe so this is an unexpected surprise and very, very cool...
I'm a little late but I really do miss this band... it broke my heart a little when I found out they broke up. I'm 16 and I only got to see them once a few months before they called it quits. This is/was my favorite band of all time. I can't help but smile when I hear one of their songs turn on.
They're back together now and touring. They announced it on the Howard Stern show. Rich has about six children and he probably realized that fighting with his brother ain't gonna pay the bills. They told Howard that they would physically fight each other so badly so they had to get separate touring buses during those times. So happy that they're playing music with each other again.
Brian C. It's an excellent version, but I just don't think it beats Joe Cocker's live version back in the early 70's, late 60's. This perfotmance comes close though, I will say that.
Chris Robinson is the ultimate hippie and you can tell he loves performing. I'm glad he and his brother Rich patched things up and got back together. They were physically fighting on the tour bus so now they have separate buses. Lol Rich Robinson has a great voice too. Check out his version of the song "Sweet Nuthin". It's an old Velvet underground song. His voice is amazing too and he is a great guitarist.
@judecreek2 you've got the facts straight, and Mad dog is an amazing event to, as is Leon's performance on the benefit for bangladesh with Harrison, amazing Jumping jack Flash Cheers
@ginapotter25 what's wrong with covers? You don't have to write a song to sing it. Sinatra never wrote a song, but like Joe, he knew a good song when he heard and knew he could do it better. BTW, The Black Crowes were big time fans of Leon Russell and all the Cocker songs from Mad Dogs and Englishmen that the Crowes covered were note for note Leon's arrangements.

👏👏☺️👏👏❤️👏👏 Joe Cocker and Leon Russell would appreciate and be proud 💞✌️❤️🌼👏👏🌹

Just one example of why they are the best live band on the planet.
I just love the Black Crowes, I wish they'd cover some of the Humble Pie songs.....Chris would do a great Steve Marriott impression!
Not really. Steve's voice was one of the best voices in rock and roll.
They did 30 Days in the Hole
I have one word for this performance, "FUN"! You can't watch this without smiling and clapping your hands. I love it!

VERY cool cover. Chris sings the everloving shit out of this one too.
5 big stars.
Right on Crowes!
In honor of today's passing of Joe Cocker. The Space Captain himself. RIP
This is crazy good.
Great cover! One of my favorites.
UN ESPECTÁCULO DE CORAZÓN.AGRADABLE MOMENTO. GRACIAS

i think the same. I'm 13 and this is my favoutite band of all time
They're back together now and touring. Rich Robinson has too many wives and children to support.

I'm glad Derek Trucks is keeping this song alive to this day... TO THIS DAY!!
this is fantastic-and a great message...awesome piano and call and response-these guys always dig up the really cool stuff when they do a cover-
Great job! Leon is proud!
Phenomenal cover!
I wasn't at this show, but I saw em perform this in Nashville and I swear to god Eddie winked at me. RIP.
This is great. Chris gives Joe a run for his money. Almost! A fine version!!!
BEST COVER BAND EVER!!! ❤
nice cover joe was incredable
Tedeschi Trucks does my favorite version, including the original by Cocker. This is quite good though.
Man!! They nail this! Such feel. Stick them in any pigeon hole you like but to me the Black Crows are one of the best soul bands about.
I adore this on Mad Dogs but this one is epic too!!! wahey, what a choice.
nothing wrong with this honorable homage to MD&EM.. fun, wish I were there.
speaking as a fan of the original... this is AWESOME.
Thanks for posting. One of my favorites covering another of my favorites.
I love this version!!!
im crying! Crowes, god bless u ! love u, fans from brazil
Oh yes ... nice cover ... and complete with the Wooo, Ahhs ... love it.
Great theme, great presentation.
There has never been a better version of this epic jam.
What, not even Barbra Streisand's ;)
Brian C. It's an excellent version, but I just don't think it beats Joe Cocker's live version back in the early 70's, late 60's. This perfotmance comes close though, I will say that.
Tedeschi Trucks Band does a fantastic version of this song
Nobody embodies the era as Leon Russell & Joe Cocker. Great attempt
Beatiful!! Inspiring!! Makes me want to continue through the day!:)
Black Crowes,resgatando uma época mágica!!!Demais!!!!
WOWWWWWWW. I want to see them do this live! This is so so so so sick!
Best lead singer/dancer on the planet.
I would love to hear Chris Robinson do a cover of an old Rod Stewart with the Faces song. He's got that husky Rod Stewart voice anyway.
wonderful cover, very true to the original! BRAVO!
really dig the extra LOUD COMMERCIALS.... REALLY PAINFUL...THANK YOU!!!!!
Such a ROCKSTAR!!!!
Excelente. Daniel, Brazil.
so immersed in the music that i didnt realize that Chris and Rich were wearing the exaact same thing
INMEJORABLE. ojala se atrevan a tocarla en el BBKLIVE!
Eu adoro esses caras!!! Rock ´n Roll empueirado, de estrada!!! Puro de excência!!!

pure melody...
And the old is new again, go to Leon Russell and Joe Cocker to see the way it is really done!!
Loving Ed 🖤✨
A really nice version!
too good for life

Quanto mi piacciono i Black Crowes
Awesome!!!!!
@ginapotter25 All Joe's songs are covers...

@judecreek2
you've got the facts straight,
and Mad dog is an amazing event to, as is Leon's performance on the benefit for bangladesh with Harrison, amazing Jumping jack Flash
Cheers
Next to the original the best version.
Love the BC
We're just learning to live together!
great!

He mentions before they play Welcome To The Good Times at this show, that they wore vests so we'd know they're brothers.
just the boys from atl, given their sweet harmony, they live close to 5830.
@amoricanCrowe I totally agree. All the line ups were amazing but........again i agree. :)
their bassist can GET IT!
Why is there a guy wearing an Oilers jersey in the crowd? I thought they were in San Francisco, not Edmonton...
Why did they have to break up? So sad. They were spectacular.
do you remember humble pie?
❤
@juanbaraka
ojala!!!!!! allí estaremos!!!!
Whooooooooo!
RIP Leon Russell
Keyboard player has great feel.
Ed harsch
If you don't own this DVD stop fucking up and get it
why the hell did a 15 minute ad about god come on first....
My head was at where their heads were at in 1990....
Nice try. Can't compare to Mad Dogs and Englishman. I was there at the Fillemore East. It was a trip!
chris robinson is a freakin boss.
Georigia boy's
Uuuuuu
@guitplay5 Herbie Hancock came pretty close.
Good video !
Take a listen to Herbie Hancock's version of this tune on YT. It's also a great version.
@tattedcrowes don't get me wrong but different is not nessecarily better :)
Barbra Streisand does a great cover as well.
oh look! there's jesus! :-O
The band never really took the message of this song to heart unfortunately. Which is too bad.... cuz they were fucking great!
Where the fuck have you been hiding for 20 years???
black crowes is big
No offense to Adam and Luther, but day-um I miss old weird Ed and Marc Ford.
lol really?
Marc Ford needs to work on his clapping enthusiasm. ;)
amo a justin bieber
not good
Shut up
Great theme, great presentation.
