SATURDAY SONG TO GET STONED TO: BLACK CROWES – “REMEDY”

Weren’t expecting this one, were ya? When you think of stoner rock or metal Black Crowes ain’t exactly the first band to come to mind, and when you think of the Black Crowes “Remedy” probably ain’t the first song you think of. But damn, are you kidding? The brothers Robinson were always stoned. Just look at that picture.

The lazy, slow, blues-grooves of the Crowes are just so fuckin’ stoney, and “Remedy” has always been my favorite song by them, perfect for that Saturday hangover toke. Rich’s scorching solo, chris’s manic yelps, the guitar and piano noodling, the female background singers… yeah, this song hits the fucking spot.

PS: I still claim he says “Baby, baby, why’d you chose Vince Neil?” in the first line. Fuck all you naysayers.
