In 1999, Jimmy Page teamed up with the southern-blues rock outfit The Black Crowes for a short but memorable tour. Largely playing classic Zeppelin material alongside a handful of Crowes cuts and blues standards, the shows were a rousing success that saw Page and The Crowes feed off each other's energy, creating a dynamic that was both reverent and inventive. The more traditional material merged with The Crowes' fondness for ad-libs and jamming, and the sets were unpredictable and explosive, much to the audience’s delight.
Whilst only playing a total of 20 shows across 1999-2000 - including the NetAid benefit concert that put the collaboration on the map - the partnership remains fondly remembered and birthed the much-loved double live album Live at the Greek in 2000. But perhaps the finest show of the short tour was the first of a three-night run at New York’s Roseland Ballroom on 12th October 1999. Demonstrating Page’s exceptional guitar prowess alongside The Black Crowes' thrilling improvised live performances, the group were in unstoppable form as they powered through an audience-pleasing setlist for almost two hours.
