Search - Jimmy Page & the Black Crowes :: Live at the Greek

Luminaries among themselves! When American rock legends The Black Crowes got together with Led Zeppelin's exceptional guitarist Jimmy Page for six sensational shows in 1999, the American audience, understandably, stood on their heads. The performances in New York City, Los Angeles and Worcester, Massachusetts, delivered by this illustrious line-up of true rock superstars left fans breathless and even experts rejoiced enthusiastically. Together Page and The Black Crowes delivered a number of high-class Led Zeppelin classics, among them 'Celebration Day', 'The Lemon Song', 'Heartbreaker', and 'Whole Lotta Love', as well as numbers that nobody would have expected. Tracks like 'Ten Years Gone', 'Your Time Is Gonna Come' or 'What Is And What Should Never Be' were convincingly delivered thanks to Page and the two Crowes guitarists Rich Robinson and Audley Freed, who not only have the necessary technique but also the right feeling for this kind of material. Chris Robinson delivers an unbelievably powerful and dramatic vocal performance. The impressive set was rounded off by songs from the regular Black Crowes track list along the lines of 'Shake Your Money Maker' or 'Mellow Down Easy' and rock standards like 'Shape Of Things To Come' by the Yardbirds, with whom Jimmy Page played in the mid-Sixties. Live At The Greek is the brilliant recording of the two final shows at the L.A. Amphitheater,
