Hmm... picked up a copy of motorvision the other day, excuse my french but fucking awesome is the only words to describe it. It was great, I have my VCR hooked up to my stereo so I played it as loud as the cops would let me.(My neighbors called the cops on me for disturbing the peace when I was playing loud love once) I also found a video for called molt and gather for 2.99 and guess what was on it?... the video for Jesus Christ Pose. My friend and I were watching it, and we couldn't see why it was banned. He's catholic too, went to a catholic high school and everyhting. Anyway I also picked up the basketball diaries soundtrack. Blind Dogs was a great song, it seems Mr. Thayil is becoming a better song writer every day. All his songs are great but hands all over pales in comparison to blind dogs and little joe.

Alice Cooper changed alot of the lyrics to Stolen Prayer (his changes suck IMHO), and Unholy War has parts taken out, so I could see how these songs could have been written without the specific intent of going on Alice's album. Just as an aside that album really drove home for me the idea that PERFOMANCE of a song is equally important to the song itself in order for it to be good. Alice Cooper took two wonderfully penned Chris Cornell songs and destroyed them by doing such things as adding children singing to the chorus of Stolen Prayer. If anyone was remotely curious about buying Cooper's album for these 2 songs, please take my advice and save your cash. I promise you will be dissapointed! --J.T. Myers ------------------------------ From: jtm8@cornell.edu (J.T. Myers) Subject: Re:Somms I never really realized how rare SOMMS was until recently. I got it when I heard about it around the time it came out (in fact, I sprinted to the record store the moment I heard this), and just about all my friends (most of them are not big Soundgarden fans) have it too, so I kind of took for granted what a treasure I had. I think that alot of people who are not great fans have SOMMS simply because it came out around the time that Pearl Jam was getting big, and the media was saying "Pearl Jam" and "Soundgarden" in the same sentence alot, so the bandwagon people went out and got Badmotorfinger. It just so happens that they picked up SOMMS too. It's really a shame, because alot of people who never listen to the album have SOMMS, while people who are real fans either can't find it or are forced to spend ridiculous amounts of money for it. --J.T.

I think the band enjoyed starting their last world tour here in australia, so hopefully that will make them come back again. with the snl appearance on may 18 and them starting lollapalooza on june 26, it seems like they could fit us in before they do everyone else. also, last time they toured here (jan 1994) was right before superunknown came out, so maybe we'll get lucky again and hear the album live about the same time we hear it on our stereos :) ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: rc@gcc.cc.md.us Subject: MONEY ORDERS NOW!

If anyone was remotely curious about buying that's what I thought when I heard them. I thought, 'cool! more songs by chris to listen to', but when I heard what alice cooper did to them (before I heard the stolen prayers boot), I knew that they weren't really chris' songs anymore, and that they probably didn't resemble what he had originally done. and now that I have heard the demo versions (jamie you are a mastermind), I know that they don't. alice cooper (imho) butchered them, and the best part of either song was when chris came in on the chorus. so maybe they should have become soundgarden bsides instead of letting alice cooper have his evil ways with them. ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ End of somms Digest [Volume 2 Issue 97] ***************************************
