The Black Crowes were dogged with comparisons to the Rolling Stones and the Faces throughout the first decade of their career, so it came as a mild surprise that they teamed with Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page in late 1999 for a couple of concerts. Zeppelin had a mystique and majesty about them that the Crowes never attempted to emulate. They were an earthy, bluesy rock band and while they found a number of different ways to rework their influences, they never tried the stately grandeur that was Zeppelin's second nature. So, some observers were curious to see how these two approaches worked. Well, it worked very, very well indeed. It shouldn't have come as a surprise that it was a good, comfortable fit since Page always demonstrated a true love of blues and early rock & roll, even on Led Zep's heaviest moments. What may be a surprise, at least to listeners that always dismissed the Black Crowes as revivalist hacks, is how supple and muscular the band sounds on Live at the Greek and how powerful vocalist Chris Robinson is. The double-disc album, released originally only through the internet but then through retail on TVT, essentially replicates an entire concert from Page and the Crowes, one of the first before they set out on a full-length American tour in the summer of 2000. They stick to Led Zeppelin classics and old blues and R&B standards like "Woke up This Morning," "Sloppy Drunk," "Mellow Down Easy," and "Shake Your Money Maker," plus the Yardbirds' "Shape of Things to Come" and Fleetwood Mac's "Oh Well." No Crowes songs are here due to contractual reasons - the band left American/Columbia in 1999, and they were not allowed to recut any song they released on the label in the years immediately following their departure; but in a way, that only strengthens the album. By pounding out hard-driving blues-rock and classic Zeppelin tunes, the band is able to stretch out and reveal just what a capable, versatile band they are. The true sign of their abilities is that Page sounds looser and happier here than he has in years; he sounds like he's truly enjoying himself, a quality that is debatable on the Page & Plant records, no matter what their virtues are. Live at the Greek isn't a landmark release, and only hardcore Page, Black Crowes, and Zeppelin fans are likely to want this, no matter how vibrant and lucent these faithful interpretations are. But for those fans, they'll be quite pleased with how good, how strong Live at the Greek is. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Following a successful collaboration at a 1999 London benefit show, it made perfect sense for Jimmy Page to invite the Black Crowes to be his back-up band for a mini-tour later that year. Recorded during a pair of sold-out shows at Los Angeles' Greek Theatre, these sets are dominated by Led Zeppelin tunes, along with a mix of classic blues nuggets and covers of Fleetwood Mac and Page's first group, The Yardbirds. (Due to contractual obligations, no Crowes songs are included here).
Chris Robinson's soulful singing ably fills in for Robert Plant's caterwaul, particularly with the sinister "In My Time of Dying" and the bluesy drawl of Willie Dixon's "You Shook Me." Guitarists Rich Robinson and Audley Freed provide stellar sounding layers of depth behind Page's playingRolling Stone (4/27/00, p.69) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...The combination is a win-win....The stomping treatments of Zep's tortured blues [prod] Page into the kind of fury that used to be a nightly routine....simultaneously raucous and faithful..."
Uncut (10/00, p.86) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...A live double album's worth of Zep's greatest guttural roars and stormtrooping stanzas..."
Mojo (Publisher) (9/00, p.103) - "...The most conservative rock'n'roll record of the year...and probably also the most enjoyable..."
NME (Magazine) (8/5/00, p.29) - 7 out of 10 - "...A work of licksmanship....Guitar tech album of the year, and a whole lotta irony-trashing fun besides."

5 stars The Best at Their Best
This album is an amazing showcase for Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes. Page hasn't sounded this good in years, and one can't help but to wonder if playing with a young, high-energy band didn't help him kick it up a notch. But the Crowes really shine on this live album. They way the espertly nalied the Zep catalog on short notice and pulled it off with all the emotion and conviction of the originals is amazing. Chris Robinson sounds even better on these songs than Plant did, and Steve Gorman matches the great John Bonham stroke for stroke. Easliy one of the best live albums ever.
