Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes Joins Dirty Honey for AC/DC Classic

Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes popped up at a Dirty Honey show in Los Angeles this week and took control of the vocals for the AC/DC classic ‘Rock and Roll Damnation’.

AC/DC’s ‘Rock and Roll Damnation’ was from the band’s fifth album ‘Powerage’ in 1978. It was the first album to feature Cliff Williams on bass. The song was released as a single in Australia but failed to chart. The band had left Australia at that point and was living in London. Lack of live shows and television appearances meant it slipped through the cracks. Also commercial radio had lost interest in the band at that point in Australia. The song had its best chart in The Netherlands (no 18) and UK (no 36).

Dirty Honey formed in Los Angeles in 2017. The debut EP ‘Dirty Honey’ was recorded in Australia with Nick DiDia.
