This blues rock version of Gnarls Barkley’s Crazy will make Joe Bonamassa consider a career change. A bluesy cover that’s good enough to make Slash jealous and raise the ghost of Gary Moore.
Back in November last year, Shadow & The Thrill won Classic Rock’s regular Tracks of the Week with their song Sugarbowl. But this week they’ve pulled out the big guns; a version of Gnarls Barkley’s 2006 Grammy-winning smasheroo Crazy.
If I’m honest, I didn’t think much of Crazy when it came out. I wasn’t really paying attention. Turns out everyone else was: Since then, every fucker’s covered it: Nelly Furtado, The Kooks, Charlotte Church, Texas- all the greats.
Well, you can all stop covering it now, fuckers. It’s been covered by Shadow & The Thrill – aka Tony Cardenas-Montana (known for his guitar slinging for Great White and Slash) and drummist/keyboarder Brentt James Arcement (of Fiona Apple, Jaded, and Live fame) – and it’s staying covered.
Shadow & The Thrill’s version is an insta-classic that should be immediately added to your local classic rock radio station’s playlists, make Joe Bonamassa consider a job in insurance, remind Slash what it’d be like if he had a big, hairy-chested blokey-bloke as a singer, and have the ghost of Gary Moore kicking himself.
In the hands of S&TT, it’s a huge, soulful, swinging blues song, with great guitar playing and an amazing vocal from Tony “The world is yours” Montana. (“Brentt told me, ‘If you’re going to do it, you better sing it like it’s the last thing you’re going to sing on earth.’ I took those words to heart.”). Gnarly. … by Tom Poak (Classic Rock)

I had a series of songs that I really felt that needed to be recorded correctly with the best drummer I knew ... that would be Brentt Arcement. So, I decided to go to New Orleans to work with him and do everything. It went well, and we needed a name for the project, so my partner and manager, Pete Merluzzi, suggested combining some different elements for the name, and that's where Shadow & The Thrill comes from.
