Jerry was always shy and self conscious about his voice and didn't want to sing but Layne kept encouraging him to sing. Luckily for us fans he was able to get Jerry to sing. Their harmonies were amazing.

Sadly Jerry sang more on the tripod album because Layne wasn't well. Great story about sweet savage, must be some awesome stories.

Layne was as authentic as they come. You could hear the pain in his voice. His addiction that he would eventually succumb to was ever present. This entire performance is a masters class in music. Layne died the same day as Kurt Cobain several years later. It was a true loss to music and humanity. The song "Frogs" is my favorite track from this session. It really showcases their talents in a very unique way *Fun fact* The bassist who had "Friends don't let friends get haircuts" was aimed at the guys from Metallica who were in the audience that night. They had cut their long hair prior to the recording of their album entitled Load

Every time I see AIC, it is bittersweet. Their music is so wonderful, and moody, and the essence of 90s rock. Then I remember I was at Layne Staley's last on-stage performance at KC's Kemper Arena on July 3, 1996. they opened for KISS. you knew it was gonna be one of those unforgettable nights when Jerry Cantrell comes on stage and yells "hey, f***ers!" into the mic. Layne, like many others, left us too soon. I'm grateful that the music of AIC is alive and being spread through your channel. the entire KC concert video is on KZbin. July 3, 1996. grainy AF, copied from a camcorder, and absolutely amazing. also... "Rooster" and "Grind" , two of their most popular songs, are fun listens. The story behind "Rooster" is wonderful.

AiC is one of my all-time favorite bands, so I encourage everyone to listen to them. Not sure I'd have recommended this one as an introduction, but it's a fine song. They were unique amongst the "grunge" era bands in that they utilized multiple singers frequently as more than background vocals. This is a deep, darkly beautiful hole to explore.

There were actually 2 members of the band who died from drugs: Staley, and original bassist Mike Starr, who was not the bassist in this video (this was Mike Inez). Starr was actually the last person to see Staley alive, and the guilt he felt at that likely contributed to his own death. Layne's body was found about 2 weeks later in his apartment, decomposed to the point where he needed to be identified by dental records. The coroner estimated that the 6'1" Staley only weighed 90lbs (40kg) at the time of his death. The video you watched, from the MTV Unplugged series, was the first time they'd performed in 2.5 years, and Layne was not well. To answer your question, a lot of art comes from pain; the happy and well-adjusted have little to get off their chests. This is especially true of musicians, poets, and comedians.

For more of this unplugged set check out Nutshell. For a video of Layne Staley(Singer) in his prime/healthy check out Love Hate Love(live at the Moore), this unplugged performance is great but Layne was deep in his drug addiction at this point & not in great health. This was 1 of his last performances before he became a recluse & just did drugs & played video games for the last 6 years of his life. Layne became such a recluse it took 2 weeks before they found his body after he OD'd. Just a sad story. AIC started as a Metal band from Seattle but got lumped into the Grunge genre with Nirvana, Pearl Jam & Soundgarden when Grunge blew up. AIC were the heaviest band of the 4 with deep & dark lyrics. Jerry Cantrell is the other singer/Guitarist in this video & he's the main songwriter of the band, he's wrote 50% of the lyrics & 97% of the music. Thankfully he's still alive & still making music along with the Drummer Sean & Mike the Bassist(all in this video) with a AIC without Layne.

Happy you're doing AIC. This band has a huge repertoire of great music. They were one of the Grunge bands in the "90's. Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam...hope you do more in the future. Their album Dirt is a masterpiece.

Hard to believe this was 28 years ago 😢 I remember when this first was aired MTV and waiting for the cd to be released afterwards.

I was lucky enough to see Alice in Chains before they blew up and became famous. They were opening for Van Halen when i saw them, and a few months later they started getting tons of fame from MTV and radio.

This concert was basically Layne shouting out for help while everyone was moving on, so sad. Truly one of the most unique voices left us shortly after…

Solid reaction Diane! Really enjoyed this one. :) I'm from the Pacific Northwest and I was born in 1988. With that information you can put together that I was very heavily influenced by Grunge music as I developed into who I am today. Alice in Chains is not my favorite Grunge band. they probably rank 3rd on that list. Don't get me wrong though! I still totally enjoy and dig on their music. :) I just don't relate to it nearly as much as I do/did when compared to say Pearl Jam and Nirvana. All three of these musical acts were founded in my neck of the woods, in Seattle. That's the one thing about Seattle that I'll always be ab;e to treasure. :) lol, their music may not be noteworthy in today's world but the music still bops and is very enjoyable to the ear and can hit you emotionally as well if you're receptive to that. :)

Absolutely you should! I know you have reacted to Nirvana but I think you would be surprised to see their unplugged. It originally was only acoustic but I think as it got popular they branched out but Nirvana acoustic is really different and special@@DianeJennings

Layne's comment about they are not my friends was just his desperation talking. Jerry LOVED Layne like a brother. Dude was a once in a generation talent. I cried more when Layne died than I did when my father died. Layne Staley and Chris Cornell are two talents we lost WAY too early

The beautiful haunting sound of a man resigned to defeat. IMO one the greatest vocal performances of an era. His ability to pour out his emotions in a painfully mesmerizing manner is nothing but amazing.

There will be an Irish Film Festival during April, 2024 in San Francisco, CA, USA. It will be both in person live and online remote. There are many film festivals in The San Francisco Bay Area. You could watch part of this online from Spain or Ireland.
