The Black Crowes Reveal New “1972” Covers EP Celebrating Rock N’ Roll’s Best

April 13, 2022

The Black Crowes have revealed a new project in celebration of some of rock and roll’s biggest hits with their upcoming covers EP titled 1972.

Yesterday, the band previewed the six chosen songs with their own rendition of the Temptations’ “Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone.” The EP will also include the Rolling Stones’ “Rocks Off” and Rod Stewart’s “You Wear It Well.”

“The year 1972 was a watershed moment. Some of the greatest rock ‘n’ roll songs ever made came out of that year,” frontman Chris Robinson said in a statement. “To get our band back together in the studio, it had to be a celebration of rock and roll. This record is about love and devotion to something that makes us feel good. We hope that it makes fans around the world feel the same.”

1972 will be available digitally as an Amazon Music exclusive with vinyl and CD editions to release the next day.
