I have great appreciation and admiration for your post regarding HP. I always want to post 'Thirty Days' to represent their work, just a masterpiece of a tune but I think someone else did that quite a while back. If I could roll back time, one of the things I would try to make up for are concerts I wish I had taken in, and they are at the top of the list. I loved Steve Marriot and he would also be in my top five of vocals.
The Black Crowes released 30 Days in their 30th Anniversary box set. They recorded it during their SYMM sessions in 1989. I wore-out at least 2 SYMM cassettes.
I want to say he was like 5'6" or so, but this was not too long after the live album, so he was still a big deal to meet. Just was surprised when he came up to me and my first thought was that he really did need security as my girlfriend of the time could have kicked his K. Fun times.
when I said 'someone else did that quite a while back.' I was saying some other poster posted '30 Days in the Hole' a while back in this thread. Not sure I got that across very well. I have never heard another version of '30 Days' and TBH, I might if I happen to run across one but nothing will detract from my reverence for the HP original. The Black Crowes you offered seems comparatively flat and lifeless, no offense...but then I'm not much of a BC fan.
One of my all-time favorite songs. I remember the first time I heard it. Took a while to figure out who sang it, back then it was on the radio and if you didn't hear it from the DJ you had to just hope to figure it out somewhere sometime
here's my other favorite bird song. Peter Green.
Peter green, Jeremy spencer, Danny Kerwin Fleetwood Mac is the best Mac
Coincidentally, rattlesnake shake is the song that spawned Aerosmith. Steven Tyler saw Joe Perry's band, with bassist Tom hamilton, and he said all of their songs stunk until they played rattlesnake shake and then he said it was so good that it stunk from the groove.
first that I've heard of theirs (that I know of), and I like the Irish flavor of this tune. I got into Irish punk some years ago and even took in Flogging Molly at Roseland Ballroom in NYC, first and last experience with a mosh pit (yeah I got shoved around and my old stupid ass knocked somebody down and then my years of wisdom came to bear and told me to GTFO while I still could, Great fun while it lasted though). But I digress. I looked these guys up and I have to assume that most of their stuff is more C&W (or country rock). I'll be catching some more of them.
what I really like is that they sent it out to Steve Marriot. I could listen to nothing but Marriot and Paul Rogers singing and never get tired of hearing them.
