What's even more valuable is The Voice doing an accoustic session at the Keswick. No, I'm not refering to the silly karaoke TV show. The Voice is Chris Cornell. He's worked with some amazing folks in the industry. He has no problem standing on his own.
I wasn't into the grunge scene when it was popular. Many of the groups held little interest for me. Soundgarden, with Chris on vocals, was lumped into that scene but proved themselves as so much more. I was late to the enjoyment but better than never.
He decided to do this accoustic tour and I was not going to miss it. I have a bootleg from a show in Sweden and it's amazing. He didn't disappoint. He played a song titled "When I'm Down" according to his original vision. It was done with a piano as a more bluesy tune and was wonderful. Changed the whole song for me. He also covered Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" and The Beetles "A Day In The Life". I look forward to his next solo stuff.
