Mr. Crowe’s Garden was formed in 1984 at Walton High School in Marietta, GA by brothers Chris and Rich Robinson. The brothers were fans of what was then called “Indy” music or “College Radio”. Influenced by bands like R.E.M., a staple in the 80s Georgia college radio scene, the Robinson brothers also had a taste for 70s blues and rock n’ roll, specifically The Rolling Stones.
The band would moonlight in New York City on and off for the next 5 years, playing small venues, eventually graduating to play CBGB’s, once considered THE chief music club from its opening in 1973, until its demise and eventual closing in 2006 (RIP CBGB!) In 1989, the band would secure a record contract from Def American Records, and soon change their name to The Black Crowes.
After the commercial success of Shake Your Money Maker in 1990 and 91, it was time to record their second album. By this time, the band had sold over 5 million copies of Shake Your Money Maker. They’d developed a little confidence, and many would also say cockiness.
Their next record was going to be a true blues rock n’ roll album. Yes, “Money Maker” was bluesy, but this time around, the band had money, they had fame, and they had a desire to make the record they really wanted to make. So, in late 1991 they entered the studio to record their sophomore effort, The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion.
