“Wanting and Waiting” isn’t just the name of the Black Crowes latest song and music video — it’s what fans of the multi-platinum rock legends have been patiently doing for the past 15 years. The brothers Robinson have learned from their mistakes, put aside their differences, and are definitely back to their groovin’ ways with their new studio album “Happiness Bastards.” On Wednesday, the band returned to the Stern Show for an eye-opening, career-spanning conversation covering everything from their earliest influences to their friendships with late legends Don Rickles, Richard Lewis, and David Crosby. The Atlanta-based rockers also discussed the details of their new tour before performing a trio of tunes live from SiriusXM’s Nashville studios.

The Black Crowes have been rocking and rolling since the 1980s, but for several well-publicized stretches over the past four decades, frontman Chris Robinson and lead guitarist Rich Robinson weren’t getting along. Howard imagined it tough for siblings to stay estranged, but Rich said the brothers’ temporary split helped him to see the forest for the trees. “Chris and I were stuck in this submarine for 24 years — and that’s what being in a band is like,” Rich told Howard. “And then you get away, and you can have more of a 10,000-foot view of what just happened.”
