Heard one of their songs on WNCW. It was kinda ‘meh.’

Chris Robinson is a great singer, really, but I have not been too knocked out my much of his post-Crowes stuff.

I respect his respect for the Stones, but covering "No Expectations" is like covering "Midnight Rider" or "Melissa." If you play it more or less like the original, you will fall short by comparison; if you mess with it, it won't work.

I loved New Earth Mud. My favorite carnation of Chris Robinson. I think they only put out two albums and they are both great. I saw them with and without the Stacey brothers. They were better with the brothers. I saw them open for Mule and they put on a great show.
