The one album Chris Cornell called "college" for musicians
There's no tested way to write a song, but Chris Cornell figured that everything you need to know about music is in this rock classic.
Got to jam with a group today with the #Gretsch and it's got some neat tricks to it. It has some particular sweet spots with rhythm distortion. I can see now why this was popular with some grunge era guitarists. A little bolder and easier to tame than a Strat and not as overruling as a Les Paul.
One thing I really like about the #Gretsch is that I can crank up the tubes and it doesn't get muddy in a bad way. I'm not sure how to describe a "clean muddy" tone, but when Chris Cornell plays here you can get a sense of it:

HEAVY HISTORY Lemmy's and MOTRHEADs final live performance was eight years ago today (2015) in Berlin, Germany at Max-Schmeling-Halle. Days earlier, BW photographer Mats Andersson took this in Gothenburg on December 1st at Scandinavium.
Hij was in coma geraakt, en zijn hersenfuncties zouden nooit meer functioneren. Hij zou leven als een plant, en daarop besluit men de stekker uit te trekken.
Maanden later komt hun debuutalbum postuum uit. Het album #apple wordt bejubeld en ze worden gezien als één van de grondleggers van de #grunge.
Samen met #ChrisCornell van #Soundgarden en #EddieVedder de toekomstige zanger van #PearlJam, Pearl Jam had anders nooit bestaan, wordt als eerbetoon aan Andrew het project #TempleOfTheDog opgericht
The death of Sinéad O'Connor, whose haunting 1990 cover made that song unforgettable, makes this listening experience cut even deeper. We've now lost both of these legendary musicians. Both of whom suffered from chronic depression.
Yet Peter Thiel and ZuckerBorg live on, and probably sleep like babies.
Just realized that those responsible for the 3 versions of Nothing Compares 2 U that I know (and love) are all gone now (#SineadOConnor, #Prince, and #ChrisCornell), and I kinda don't think I want to listen to anyone else's version ever. (I guess I also know the first version, by The Family, but they = Prince.)
