Amorica (Reissue) PRE-ORDER

VINYL FORMAT. Atlanta, GA's Black Crowes originally released this, their third full length, in 1994. Despite not having any hit singles, Amorica is the band's finest effort, showcasing the laid-back swagger of leader Chris Robinson and the killer guitar work of brother Rich Robinson and Marc Ford, and some of the group's best songs. A very hard to find LP back in print on 180 gram vinyl!

'On Amorica, the Black Crowes finally come into their own, taking their cue from the most relaxed, groove-oriented tracks on their previous album. While the album contains no immediately obvious singles, the songs are the best the band has ever written, stretching out into a hard, jam-oriented, funky blues-rock. The Black Crowes' influences are still discernible - no band celebrates the glory days of rock culture quite as enthusiastically - but they use the music of the Stones, the Faces, and Little Feat much the same way the Stones used the music of Chuck Berry: it's a starting point that leads the band into a new direction, incorporating different musical genres, and making the music original. That sense of reinterpretation is what keeps Amorica fresh.' - Stephen Thomas Erlewine / All Music Guide
