Band: THE BLACK CROWES Who: Americana blues rockers from Marietta, Georgia
with the Robinson brothers as the key members. Active: 1984–2002, 2005–2015, 2019–present / 8 studio albums.

Rich about the feud: “I couldn’t abide the demand of my brother to give up
my equal share of the band and that our drummer for 28 years and original
partner, Steve Gorman, relinquish 100 percent of his share, reducing him to
a salaried employee”.

debut album Shake Your Money Maker in a movie called Brothers Of
