Black Crowes - Transmission Impossible (2015)

This 3 CD set includes two discs featuring superb live radio broadcasts, recorded and transmitted in 1990 and 1991 respectively, plus a CD of band interviews and spoken word biography, all of which make for a fitting tribute to a group who, across more than 25 years, proved that in-yer-face rock music is alive and well and selling like it always has done in droves. The Black Crowes have sold over 30 million albums, and are listed at number 92 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock". They were also labeled by Melody Maker magazine The Most Rock 'n' Roll Rock 'n' Roll Band in the World and the readers of Rolling Stone voted them 'Best New American Band' in 1990. Their discography includes nine studio albums in all, four live albums and several charting singles. After a hiatus between 2002 and 2005, the band released Warpaint, which hit number 5 on the Billboard chart. After the release of a double album, the greatest hits-like and mostly acoustic Croweology in August 2010, the band started a 20th anniversary tour that was followed by an ongoing second hiatus. The band announced that they would return in early 2013 but that December they returned to hiatus status with no specific return date. They announced their break-up in early 2015.
