The Black Crowes released a film on DVD documenting the recording of the Before The Frost... Until The Freeze album, entitled CABIN FEVER, which included several songs not featured on the album. While watching The Crowes perform these songs to an intimate audience, you couldn’t imagine a more fitting place for the band’s album to be recorded. Album was recorded live in front of an audience at Helm’s Woodstock , New York home/studio, and CABIN FEVER is the video documentary of that process. This release clocks in at just about 75 minutes. As those familiar with the album will realize, that unfortunately does not allow enough time to cover all the material contained in its audio-only companion. There is enough serious jamming and vocal gusto included on this disc that most fans are likely to be not only satisfied, but also impressed. The credits roll as we watch a silent montage of off-stage video clips of the band, working hard and enjoying it all. One of the first is a heartfelt exchange between Chris and Levon, wherein the chief Crowes expresses his gratitude to Mr. Helm for allowing them to record their newest material at his home/studio. It is not at all difficult to see the genuine satisfaction that Levon gets from being able to have some role in the magic that The Crowes are laying down these days. This newest line-up has really come together and gelled in ways few could have predicted when Luther Dickinson and Adam MacDougall joined the band just about two years prior to this performance. While MacDougall is not yet showing the same strong presence on keys that his predecessor old-man Harsch had, Dickinson comes across as such a natural fit that it is no surprise these guys are in such a fertile creative space. Throughout the performances captured here, The Black Crowes just seem to completely inhabit their countrified roots-groove in a way that makes it distinctly their own.In addition to seeing Chris Robinson engage in some of his reknowned audience interaction on this disc, we also get him sharing a couple of amusing anecdotes with his bandmates. It’s hard to tell who’s more fascinated by what’s going on, the audience or the band. For their part, The Crowes themselves seem equally rhapsodized being at Levon Helm’s studio and watching the spellbound look of the intimate audience. The DVD footage interweaves rehearsal proper, actual recording as well as the musicians’ downtime. In addition, there’s some some picturesque footage of the Woodstock New York environs. The pace of the video sequences is that of a well-structured set of music where the country and folk strains mesh as smoothly hard rock swagger. Two additional performances are the extent of the bonus material on CABIN FEVER, but then, like the music itself, this item is executed perfectly succinctly right down to the stylized cover art and DVD package design. The Black Crowes have set the stage to celebrate their Twentieth Anniversary in 2010 at the absolute apex of their career. After having now watched, CABIN FEVER several times over, you'll left with every reason to believe you can expect more instant classics from these guys soon. As The Black Crowes approach the upcoming Twentieth Anniversary of their release of one of rock's most influential records, Shake Your Money Maker, they are time and again hailed as one of rock and roll's best live acts.
