Live At The Greek by Jimmy Page And The Black Crowes (Triple LP On White Vinyl)
In the Summer and Fall of 1999, one of the best live rock ‘n’ roll bands and rock’s greatest guitarist united for a tour across the States, performing the best songs from the band that virtually invented Rock! Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page joined Chris and Rich Robinson and the rest of The Black Crowes to perform “Whole Lotta Love,” “Heartbreaker,” “What Is and What Should Never Be,” “Hey Hey What Can I Do” and many more Zep favorites. The band also ripped into blues classics like “Mellow Down Easy,” “Woke Up This Morning,” the Yardbirds classic “Shapes of Things” and the early Fleetwood Mac number “Oh Well.” Now, over a decade later from the original release, this classic collaboration is available for the first time on vinyl. Spanning three discs on white vinyl, Live at the Greek is a sterling recording of a legendary concert on the nights of October 18 and 19, 1999
“The combination of Page and the Crowes… is a win-win.” – Rolling Stone
“Page & Crowes… reinvent the Led Zeppelin canon and a round of blues ravers… the concert album of the year and the first truly indispensible rock document of the new century.” – Billboard
“I’ve always thought the Crowes were one of the finest live rock bands around, period.” – Jimmy Page in Rolling Stone
“I’m humble in the face of Jimmy and his work and all the amazing things he’s done. I knew deep down that, of any band, we’re really one of the only ones that could have pulled this off well. And when we started playing the stuff ourselves… it just became more apparent.” – Rich Robinson of The Black Crowes

Christina Aguilera, Muse and Gorillaz among the artists whose vinyls now change hands for hundreds of pounds because so few were made in obsolete format - Top 51 most valuable releases since 2000 compiled by Record Collector
Many popular artists' vinyl releases are included in the list - But the most valuable release is, oddly, a Bob Dylan box set on CD-R
