What rock band signed to Def American Recordings in 1989, shipped 500,000 copies of their third album reaching gold status?
Amorica Amorica (styled amorica. on the album cover) is the third studio album by The Black Crowes. Spawned from their unreleased scrapped album "Tall", "Amorica" was released in late 1994 on American Recordings and reissued in the UK in 1998 with two bonus tracks. The record notably featured a sexually explicit cover that displayed a woman's crotch wearing a United States flag thong with pubic hair sticking out, taken from the cover of the July 1976 issue of "Hustler" magazine. The album was subsequently banned from chain stores like Walmart and Kmart, resulting in the cover being censored with a solid black background, displaying only the thong. "Amorica" reached gold status in the United States, shipping 500,000 copies.
