This chapter explores the evolution of Atlanta and its cultural significance through personal anecdotes about family heritage and food traditions. The speakers humorously discuss their experiences with traditional Jewish foods while examining the broader themes of cultural identity and the joy of culinary exploration during travels. They reflect on the deep connections formed through food, its nostalgic power, and the lasting impact it has on their memories and experiences in both personal and musical contexts.
It took Chris Robinson a long time to accept being a rock and roll frontman. Even at the height of The Black Crowes’ success, he just thought they were just a group of dudes from Atlanta playing roots music. Now reunited with the band and touring again after releasing their ninth album, Chris tells Marc why it took time and perspective to realize he liked being the guy on lead vocals. Chris also tells Marc about the influence of bands like The Faces and Humble Pie, how he was discouraged from being a singer when he was a kid, and how he healed the rift with his brother and bandmate Rich.
