But Micah, recent birthday boy, has suggested that we could wrap up a trilogy of crow themed bands with a song from the Black Crowes. Now this group has had its problems over the years, breaking up due to a various differences, even though two of the key band members are brothers. But they are back together minus the non brother, Steve Gorman, for what they are calling their Happiness Bastards Tour.

The brothers were in Philadelphia just last week and are now in the UK and will be touring around Europe for the next month and a half. They are probably best known for their debut single from 1990 called “Jealous Again.”
I don’t know if this counts as Micah’s birthday request, but let me use this as a moment to remind you that I’m happy to take requests, as Jeff was too when this was his gig. In fact, like Jeff, I sometimes play songs related to holidays, and I apologize to the moms subscribed here for not doing a Mother’s Day song. After 37 years, it’s still a little difficult for me on Mother’s Day. But I’ll see what I can come up with.
Anyway, if you have a crow story for us, please share it in the comments. Sign up to get these (semi) daily song posts in your email and enjoy reading and listening to some of the past posts of Jeff’s Song of the Day. Share the music if you enjoy it, please! And don’t be shy. We’re glad you’re here.
