The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion

The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion is the second album by the American blues rock group The Black Crowes, released on May 12, 1992. It was the first record by the band to feature Marc Ford on lead guitar, replacing Jeff Cease, who was fired the year before.

It features four hit singles; "Remedy" (#1 on the Album Rock Tracks chart for 11 weeks), "Thorn in My Pride" (#1 on the Album Rock Tracks chart for four weeks), "Sting Me" (#1 on the Album Rock Tracks chart for two weeks), and "Hotel Illness" (#1 on the Album Rock Tracks chart for six weeks). It was a record for an album to feature four album rock number-one hits (previously set by Tom Petty in 1989, with three). The album itself reached the top spot of the Billboard 200 album chart, propelled by the success of these singles.

In 2006, the album was ranked number 100 on Guitar World magazine's list of the greatest 100 guitar albums of all time.

    How could Southern Ireland keep a bridal North in the manner to which she is accustomed?

    Like harmony in music; there is a dark
    Inscrutable workmanship that reconciles
    Discordant elements, makes them cling together
    In one society.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Hell is full of musical amateurs: music is the brandy of the damned.
