"Well, you can't hear this type of rock from other bands today"
For those who love pure rock 'n roll, this album is for them; and for Black Crowes fans. Our cult following understands true rock. We can hear it; why can't you?

This, along with "By Your Side," is their greatest album. "Three Charms and One Snake" comes in second. Their debut album, "Shake Your Money Maker" comes in third (though, of course, when Black Crowes were popular fans would rate this album as number 1, which it is not)."Amorica" comes next, followed by "Lions". The new album "Warpaint" has yet to be placed by me, as I am awaiting it to take hold of me. It is not nearly as heavy as other Crowes' albums.

Likely the best group around today or any past day.

"One of the greatest rock n' roll albums ever made! "
Much is made of the so-called "sophomore slump," even in music. So many bands that burst on the scene with attention-grabbing debut albums seemingly fall on their faces the second time 'round.

The Black Crowes, however, gave us one of the best rock n' roll albums of all time with in their second offering, The Southern Harmon & Musical Companion. I will say it again: it is one of the best rock n' roll albums of all time.

When an album is this good, it isn't really necessary to do a song-by-song breakdown. Just take these words to heart: this is a must-have album for rock n' roll fans. Period.

"The Black Crowes' Second Album Avoids The Sophmore Jinx, And Bests The First One"
With their second album, THE SOUTHERN HARMONY AND MUSICAL COMPANION, the Black Crowes not only avoid the sophmore jinx, but improve on their stellar debut, SHAKE YOUR MONEY MAKER. With a hot new guitarist, Marc Ford, replacing the bare-bones Jeff Cease, the band sounds at times to be blending the jam-oriented bluesy country-rock of the Allman Brothers Band and the Outlaws with the ramshackle pub sound of the Faces and other like-minded British bands. This CD is a smorgasbord of rich, spicy guitar tones, raw lead vocals, gospel-influenced female vocal backup, and lyrics that would have been perfectly at home in a Southern Gothic novel of the kind I had to read in school in order to get on the honor roll. This CD is a must-own for anyone who thinks Southern rock's last great moment was the Outlaws' GHOST RIDERS album.

"sometimes"
This album rocks. Buy it for 'Sometimes Salvation'. I'm suprised you don't own it already. Also get 'Amorica' and 'Three Snakes And One Charm' and you have the Crowes' best line-up and best songs.

"Title tells it all!!!"
Searching for great songs, plunged into southern R&B, full of filthy guitars, harmonica and a singer with soul......this is the one and only CD! "Sting me" as well as "Remedy" don't need an intro anymore!!! But take a break and listen to songs 5, 6, 7, 8 one after another: awesome music!!!
Best Crowes CD ever if you'll ask me with a sound that's very close to their live performance... (Ordered 'War paint' but haven't receiced it yet)

What our customer's say!

"Excellent", If you are a Black Crowes fan, you must have this one in your collection! Great rockin' tunes from Chris Robinson and company! Stand out tune in this collection: "Remedy!"

"Rock At Its Best", With this album, The Crowes showed they were more than a Stones rip-off. Their first album was loud and raucous testosterone rock, but with their sophomore album, The Crowes infused far more soul into their songs. These songs are some of the best I have ever heard that demonstrate a thirst for, a search of, and even a disillusionment with redemption I have ever heard. Marc Ford's guitar and Ed Harsch's keys add character to the line up. With this album, The Crowes, even though they still borrowed heavily from their influences, showed there was something to their sound that set them apart. My only gripe with this cd is the mix. Yes, the songs do sound great. But there are several instances where Chris's vocals are swallowed in the mix. The lyrics are a big part of this album and Chris certainly knows how to deliver a song with a punch. His vocals should always be given their proper space. This is a minor complaint and it in no way takes away from this being a true time tested classic.

"Another modern Classic", This cd has some of my favorite Crowes tunes on it. I love sometimes salvation. I love the guitar work on this album.

"A rare case when a second album is even better than the first. A southern rock masterpiece.", 2 years pass, a new keyboardist, and a new guitarist in, The Black Crowes release their sophomore album, The Southern Harmony & Musical Companion. What an album! Though not as immediate and hook-filled as Shake Your Moneymaker, it is much more rewarding and more assuring to a patient listener. The band is more pronounced with their Memphis/60's soul influences, and the production job is very rich.

The album kicks off with Sting Me, a greasy rocker with a Stones swagger, along with Remedy, a great funky rock song with some amazing vocal work by Chris. Thorn In My Pride showcased a new Black Crowes, one with more depth and a little psychedelia thrown in the mix. Bad Luck Blue Eyes Goodbye reminds one of late 60's Joe Cocker, and Sometimes Salvation is downright scary in it's explosive power.

No track on this album sounds like a throwaway. Hotel Illness keeps the Faces-stomp quite prominent on this album, but the last few tracks show an entirely different Crowes. Black Moon Creeping is heavy southern funk, while No Speak No Slave could be a Zeppelin-outtake if it wasn't for the twin guitars. Finally, My Morning Song is an epic powerhouse of rock, soul, blues, and psychedelia, with an explosive climax that will leave you hitting the repeat button many times. A lowkey cover of Bob Marley's Time Will Tell ends the album on a beautiful note. One of the best albums of the 90's, and one of the best rock and roll albums ever made. Get it!

" Angels and devils smile down deep inside", When The Crowes hired guitarist Marc Ford just before this albulm was recorded, they gave him something like 30 songs to learn, but when he showed up for the first day of sessions, lo and behold, he found that Chris and Rich had scrapped all those songs an had rewritten the whole album in two weekends. They proceeded to record the entire deal in eight days, and after some aggrivating attempts at mixing, Chris took the album home and "hot mixed" it in one night.

Four days writing, eight days recording, and one all night mix. THIS is what rock is all about. The finished product is a masterpiece, and all in a fortnight.

Rather than rehashing which songs are which, it is better to point out the fact that this is a heavily themed album. There are stings, thorns, illness and bad luck, but there are also remedies, harmony and salvation. This album cuts to the core of life, where everything can seem to be right, yet still falls apart, and where perspective is maintained and salvation is found. As they quote Bob M, "Think you're in Heaven, but you're livin' in Hell"

When baby bands come out with their sophmore effort, it often falls flat (to put it mildly), but the Crowes were in their finest form on this one, proving that the "Stones Clones" can in fact forge their own way. Although I am a massive fan of the '67-72 Stones, I challange anyone to find Mick singing the blues better than Chris on "Bad Luck, Blue Eyes Goodbye", or injecting more venom than is on "No Speak No Slave". Well, Mick's venom is pretty thick on "Turd On The Run" I'll admit. But I digress...

This gospel tinged diamond of rock and roll has lived up to its name better than any other album in my life. In the last twelve years it has certainly been by best 'companion'.
Do yourself a favor and get yourself a new best friend with "Harmony". If you have a soul, "My Morning Song" will change your life.

If I could give it six stars, I wouldn't hesitate.

"One of my all time favorite albums", This is one of the great all time r&b, rock albums. Other than the usual non-sensical lyrics, the Crowes were at their peak on this album.
