Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson has given a surprising assessment of his band. “We don’t know shit about music,” the rocker firmly declared during an appearance on the Broken Record podcast. “We didn’t learn music… I don’t read music. Rich doesn’t read music.” While Robinson noted that other musicians “do the fuckin’ math,” he argued his band has found success by focusing on the emotion of songs, rather than the technicalities. “We know what it feels like and we know what sounds right, and then you keep doing that,” the singer explained. “Of course, through that your vocabulary is bigger....

The Black Crowes are planning to release a new version of their 2000 album Live at the Greek with their own songs included for the first time. A record of their curtailed tour with Jimmy Page, the Crowes were subject to a clause with their former label at the time, which forbade them from releasing material of their own. As a result, Live at the Greek has never included “Remedy,” “Wiser Time,” “No Speak, No Slave” and their cover of “Hard To Handle,” focusing instead on the Led Zeppelin songs performed with Page.

The Black Crowes are worried there’s “no humanity” in music anymore. The “Hard to Handle” hitmakers love to hear chaos and the imperfection that can be detected on old records and they are concerned that editing tools are being overused to make tracks sound flawless, because that leaves the songs with something missing. Rich Robinson told The Sun newspaper: “The problem with a lot of music today is that there’s no humanity in it. There’s a pursuit of perfection and a use of these tools that sucks all human qualities out of it.” “Listen to a Beatles record,” he continued. “They’re all over the ...
