Notes: 1 Walk In My Shadow 2 Bottle Of Red Wine 3 Tin Soldier 4 Take The Highway* with Gary Louris 5 Deal 6 Love Me Till The Sunshines 7 Long Time Gone* with David Crosby 8 Jerimiah Surrender 9 One Way Out 10 Presence Of The Lord (fades out short) From "LIVE MUSIC REVIEW" August 1995 by Bill Glahn(heavily edited) Ok, here's a question for any legal eagle in our family of readers. A well-known band (in this case the Black Crowes) performs under a false moniker at a small club. An astute boolegger manages to get hold of an excellent soundboard recording of the show and puts it out under a fictitcious name, never using the name "Black Crowes" anywhere in the art work. The closest Totonka comes to using the band's official name is the term "Crowes" used in the liner notes. To my knowledge "Foamfoot" is not a registered trademark and probably does not appear anywhere in the band's contract with their label. So in essence the bootlegger is not trading at all on the band's likeness or image. Some great artwork in the William Stout tradition is used for the cover with no photos of the band in site. Since trading on the "image and likeness" of an artist is at the foundation of U.S. copright law is this a bootleg? To make matter worse not one Black Crowes penned tune is on this disc. So the Black Crowes are not even entitled to mechanical royalties although quite a few others are. This probably doesn't matter anyhow since Chris Robinson has expressed his love of bootlegs in no less than Rolling Stone (even causing some nervousness in one store owner by naming his favorite shop to buy bootlegs!). Chris Robinson announces that his basement is too small to rehearse in so the band wanted to practice in front of an audience. But the band doesn't practice any of their own material, instead opting to place their own stamp on a variety of classic rock staples and a few long lost gems. And it all gets captured on a superbly mixed soundboard recording. You won't find anything like this on any other Black Crowes bootleg. There's even a few guest appearances. The cover is a brilliant take off on the Grateful Dead album, Skeletons From The Closet. And with the sort of of professional rivalry that is legendary among competing bootleggers, Totonka shows some biting wit as they extend their condolences to KTS in anticipation of the closing of the Italian protection gap system of legal bootlegs. Among those receiving thanks is Chris Robinson. Makes you wonder who's closet this recording came from doesn't it? Crows From The Closet is an all round masterpiece in the best tradition of bootlegs. Update: Little FYI for y'all. Being a Black Crowes geek I figured I'd clear up that description. It really isn't the Black Crowes. The members are as follows: Chris Robinson (The Black Crowes) Marc Ford (The Black Crowes) Jimmy Ashurst (The JuJu Hounds) Eric Bobo (Cypress Hill) Gary Louris (The Jayhawks) Chris and Marc were living in LA at the time and wanted to get together with friends to jam. Lastly, here are the original artists: Walk in my Shadow (Free) Bottle of Red Wine (Eric Clapton/Bobby Whitlock) Tin Soldier (Steve Mariott) Take the Highway (The Marshall Tucker Band) Deal (The Grateful Dead) Love me till the sun shines (The Kinks) Long Time Gone (Crosby, Stills & Nash) (with David Crosby) Jemima Surrender (The Band) One Way Out (Elmore James) Presence of the Lord (Eric Clapton)
