The Black Crowes - Freak N Roll into the Fog (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There has been much talk of the death of rock and roll in the last couple of decades, but I disagree. Like most elements of our world, rock music has evolved, and it has morphed into different sounds and different genres. The purest form of rock music, however, has been kept alive in recent years - almost exclusively - by the Black Crowes.
Maybe the best thing about this concert DVD is that it is truly representative of a standard Crowes show. Most of their shows consist of a good cross-section of songs from all of their recordings, as well as an unreleased cut or two, extended jams, and a couple of choice covers thrown in. The Crowes are known for never playing the same show twice, and quite simply, this band doesn't know how to not bring it strong each and every night. This is not a band that needs to hide behind stage theatrics nor excessive effects to entertain. To coin a phrase, it's simply the music that does the talking.Each Crowes concert is a unique experience unto itself, and this DVD is lightning in a bottle.
Having been a fan of this band since the beginning, I can state with confidence that the band is hitting on all cylinders at this point in time more than any other.Chalk that up to life experience, a new maturity, or something else, the Crowes are peaking at a time in their career when most musical artists are looking at their best days in the rearview mirror. The Black Crowes are choosing to write new history, and inviting everyone along for The Song.
Hit the lights, light your favorite incense, and turn up your surround sound. Rock and roll has many forms, but in its purest form, it is the truth, and the Black Crowes are the truth.
