It was no surprise that The Black Crowes decided that as the basis for their new album, to record themselves live in the winter of 2009, offering all new material to an intimate audience at Levon Helm's barn in Woodstock New York. Is it any wonder either that Steve Gorman can't hardly stop talking about the group? Talking with Glide's Doug Collette, he sounds tremendously excited about how well the band is doing right now, as well as their future prospects. From his vantage point at the drums at the back of the stage, and as a charter member of the group, things have never looked or sounded better for The Black Crowes.
