Rick's catalog of interviews has gotten to the point where he can now make comprehensive compilations from the whole band to give authoritative history and interpretations about the creation and performance of their best songs.
-
Everybody talks about "Black Hole Sun" like it was the only song on the album or something, but back in the day the song I would listen to again and again and again was "4th of July".
-
I remember Chris saying on the Howard Stern show that this entire song came into his head when driving along one day. Amazing songwriter. Rip Chris.
-
Listen to “Fresh Tendrils” & “Fourth of July.” These two songs fall under the radar.
-
So delicate yet apocalyptic, so weird and yet catchy, so happy and sad. Beautiful in a word.
-
Black Hole Sun is one of the very very very few songs i still love lissening to, after decades of it.. its perfect as a single, complex but simple, magical and perfect in so many ways.. one of the greatest songs ever written/composed.
-
Soundgarden is my favorite band ever. Superunkown is my favorite album of all time. I still have it on cassette. I grew up in Seattle in the same neighborhood as Chris Cornell so it is wild to think of all the times i saw him randomly out and about. Same with Jerry Cantrell and Layne. I used to see Layne all the time.
-
It's pretty impressive for these compilation videos where you realize in a lot of instances Rick has likely interviewed a guitarist, a drummer, a bassist and a producer all who made one album/song together. And giving then separate interviews gives them each a unique perspective.
-
“Superunknown”! Soundgarden’s best offering (and that’s saying a lot) and, possibly, one of the top ten Hard Rock albums of the last fifty years. Rest in peace, Chris!
-
Being an oldschool kinda headbanger dude. I was reluctant to accept much of the Seattle sound at first. But it didn't take long before I'd insist EVERY club or bar I frequented have the SUPERUNKNOWN on the jukebox. It was an instant classic in my world.
-
Agree with Michael Beinhorn, Tighter & Tighter is one of my favorite songs ever, is the song that came to my mind, and i listened the day Chris Cornell died, because of the line "Sleep tight for me. I'm gone". And yeah, off course Black Hole Sun is amazing, is one of those song i never get tired to listen. Is a masterpiece in composition and interpretation.
-
What makes me sad watching this is that Rick never got to interview Chris.
-
One of the greatest songs EVER written
-
first Soundgarden song I remember hearing.
-
I saw the thumbtail to this, saw Chris and I immediately got excited because it has been so long since we've all heard from him. For a brief moment, he was still alive in my mind and I couldn't wait to hear his take on this. Then I remembered.....😢
-
Man, I didn’t realize it until later in life, but that album and that song helped inspire me to pickup a guitar and become a rock musician.
-
It's impossible to tire of hearing this song. A perfectly written & performed rock song.
-
I have such great memories listening to Superunknown on my sony discman back in the day. Killer song and awesome album!
-
Matt's snare/tuning is just so sweet. The sustain on it could fold almost any groove back into the pocket by itself. It sounds like you could play right on the beat and still get a slight slowing effect in the final outcome. Its just not in any kind of hurry whatsoever, just taking its time to get there. Which perfectly fits the psychedelic nature of this song.
-
Soundgarden was a really special band to me, some say grunge and they came out of that scene but I’d say soundgarden was something else with Chris and Kim and that slow beat of the drummer and bassplayer of blackhole sun they pioneer what became doom metal.
