The Black Crowes have shared a previously unreleased song called “Bitter, Bitter You,” recorded during the sessions for their 1994 “Amorica” album and will be featured on the forthcoming box set celebrating that record.
The deluxe box set, available as a 5LP or 3CD set, chronicles the band’s evolution through the songs that became Amorica, including “Bitter, Bitter You,” an unreleased track capturing the raw emotion and sonic edge of the original sessions.
The deluxe box set features Tallest, a studio album of 9 newly mixed songs from the Tall sessions, initially scrapped to bring a new creative energy to the recording of Amorica.
The set includes 3 unreleased recordings: “Bitter, Bitter You,” “Title Song,” and “Paris Song,” an instrumental that evolves into the Amorica track “Cursed Diamond,” along with The Marie Laveau Sessions and 4 live songs recorded for a worldwide live radio broadcast.
Chris Robinson stated, “Amorica was about breaking free and doing things on our own terms. It wasn’t about fitting into what was happening in music at the time. It was about trusting our instincts – and 30 years later, that’s still who we are,” while Rich Robinson added, “The bond between us, even when tested, always came back to the music. That’s what Amorica represents – our belief in ourselves and in this band.”
