"Three Snakes and One Charm" was released in July 1996. The band's support tour included a summer stint with the 1997 Furthur Festival, along with Ratdog, Bruce Hornsby and others. During this period, the band recorded an album called "Band", which was scrapped. Guitarist Marc Ford was fired and bassist Johnny Colt subsequently left the group, dissolving the Crowes' line-up for the previous three albums. The unreleased tracks from "Tall" and "Band" surfaced among tape trading circles and were later officially released on "The Lost Crowes" (2006).
