The Black Crowes' 'The Lost Crowes' 2-Disc Set Release Date Moved To September 26, 2006 Due To Manufacturing Error

LOS ANGELES (blackcrowes.com) - The new double album of unreleased material by THE BLACK CROWES titled THE LOST CROWES was originally scheduled to be in stores August 29 (Rhino). However, due to a recently discovered manufacturing error, the release date has been moved to September 26.

THE LOST CROWES contains two previously recorded albums that THE BLACK CROWES never officially released: Tall in 1993 and Band in 1997. While a few songs from these lost albums were rerecorded and released on studio albums, many have emerged only through the band's legendary live shows. THE BLACK CROWES recently went into the vault, collecting the best moments from those abandoned sessions for a special treat for their longtime fans. The compilation will be available September 26 at all retail outlets and at www.rhino.com. The same day, the band's 1992 home video, WHO KILLED THAT BIRD OUT ON YOUR WINDOW SILL, will make its DVD debut on Rhino Home Video.

Meanwhile, THE BLACK CROWES will spread their freak 'n' roll on a newly announced fall tour kicking off September 7 in Richmond, VA. The new leg of dates will be highlighted by the band's October 28 performance at the second annual Vegoose festival in Las Vegas at Sam Boyd Stadium and wraps up November 12 at the Love Ride in Castaic, CA.

Chris Robinson (vocals), Rich Robinson (guitars), Marc Ford (guitars), Sven Pipien (bass) and Steve Gorman (drums) will be joined by keyboardist Rob Clores, as Eddie Hawrysch has been released from the band due to personal issues.
