Full Show Friday | Black Crowes With Marc Ford 1996

Arguably, the best Black Crowes lineup of all-time was the one that held together for most of the ’90s in which drummer Steve Gorman, keyboardist Eddie Harsch, bassist Johnny Colt and guitarist Marc Ford augmented the Brothers Robinson. Ford’s tone and Harsch’s versatility fit Chris and Rich’s music so well while no one has held down the drummer’s seat in The Black Crowes like Steve Gorman.

In honor of yesterday's announcement that The Black Crowes have officially broken up, we want to look at a show from November 19, 1996 at Astoria Theatre in London featuring that incredible lineup. This show contains a beautiful acoustic section and hard-hitting electric segments. Among the highlights are a blistering take on "Wiser Time," Chris stopping the show during "Gone" to berate a fan who threw a beer at him, a gorgeous acoustic version of "Torn and Frayed" and a let-it-all-hang-out "Remedy" closer.

Set: Nebakanezer, Downtown Money Waster -> Share The Ride -> Gone*, Feathers, Black Moon Jam -> Black Moon Creeping, Wiser Time -> Ballad In Urgency, Girl From The North Country, Under A Mountain, Thorn In My Pride
