In 1996 VH1 launched Storytellers, a program in which artists performed in front of a small audience, and recounted stories about their music, writing experiences and memories. The show had its hey day between its debut and 2002, when 67 of its 98 episodes aired. This soundboard recording captures The Balc Croes on the shows's earliest episode, in New York on Augsut 27, 1996, 27 years ago today!

The Black Crowes have ties to all 3 of our featured bands this month. Former Allman Brothers's Band keyboardist Chick Leavell played on the Black Crowes debut album. On April 6, 1995, the Black Crowes were joined in studio by members of the Allman Brothers for a jam session. The Allman Brothers and Black Crowes both played at the One For Woody Concert on September 15, 2000, in honor of Allen Woody, who had passed away a month earlier. A night after the jam session just referenced, the Black Crowes opened for the Grateful Dead in Tampa.  The Crowes were part of the 1997 Furthur Festival, which featured a collection of bands with links to Dead, such as Bob Weir's Ratdog, Mickey Hart's Planet Drum, Hot Tuna, and former GD keyboardist, Bruce Hornsby, The Crowes first hit, Hard To Handle, was one of the signature tunes of Ron "Pigpen" McKernan of the Grateful Dead .  Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes had a stint with Phil Lesh & Friends  In 2009, the Crowes played 4 nights at Levon Helm's Studios, shows that produced the live album, Before the Frost...Until the Freeze.  That same year, Levon Helm joined the Black Crowes on stage in Atlantic City for a rendition of The Weight.
