Soundgarden's Greatest Live Performances (Part 1)

[@mattpeace919]

Vocals are unmatched. Flawless guitar player. His solo shows are the best concerts I've ever seen. A musical genius, a legend, a real rock god. RIP Chris. The best lead singer ever.

[@prometheuspredator7971]

I so agree. Chris is the best ever and never will a lead vocalist will replace him. His octave voice level was a 3 or 4, can't remember which one. Not even opera singers can hit it that high. As far as vocals go, Chris is right up there with Freddie Mercury. Chris has always been my favorite vocalist and always will be. Love you, Chris. I have never understood why Kim did get alot more credit and attention as other guitarists. He is the best.

Could not be better said! My 1st Soundgarden show was seeing them on the 2nd night of the Motorvision dates at The Paramount theatre in Seattle on March 6, 1992. I got to see both Soundgarden and Chris solo many times. I miss Chris so much!

[@tannerkristopher3063]

a tip: watch movies at InstaFlixxer. I've been using them for watching all kinds of movies recently.

@Tanner Kristopher yup, I have been watching on instaflixxer for months myself :)

I think Matt burned approximately 666,000 calories during Jesus Christ Pose. Incredible.

Watching Chris brings me the most joy and sadness all at the same time. Sometimes it just hurts too much to take in his awesomeness.

[@cornellscorner4evr119]

I agree sissy, wasn't he just so beautiful inside and out? There will NEVER be another like him. The earth is the biggest , emptiest, most darkest place without your presence here. We are lost without you. We no longer have you to keep the light and hope and passion going. Hopefully, most of us have Jesus Christ in our lives to carry us on.

[@Roflcrabs]

Ben Shepherd was a fine addition to the band.

[@lisaparsons4124]

Yes I agree Ben Sheppard is great and talented

[@adamwatson6916]

He wrote alot of songs after he joined and helped to expand their sound I think Hiro was a better bass player overall but Ben had better abilities as a song writer .

Rest in peace to a true legend. His legacy and music will live on forever. "No one sings like you anymore..." 1964-2017

A superband before superbands even existed.

[@lisaparsons4124]

Yes I agree 💯

[@pamelahinchee8012]

I know how lucky I was living and working in the Music Industry during the Rise of the Seattle Scene. Saw a lot of bands at little clubs. The Central, The Ditto, The Vogue, OK Hotel, The Off Ramp and all its incarnations. What a great time in Music History.

Love the harmony of Chris and Eddie live singing "Outshined" at Lollapalooza. Power child gone wild "I know what to do" erotica. What a dynamo a little bit Jagger, Aerosmith, Zappa, Plant all rolled into one package. No one can ever top Chris Cornell. Best Soundgarden sound.Watching this in 2020 and it is still amazing !

[@DiegoPerez-mt7jc]

I had never seen some of these performances, at least Fopp and Big Dumb sex (in which he sings INCREDIBLY, I think it must be 1990-1991 when he reached perfection, as shown in Temple of the dog). I feel like crying everytime I watch videos of him. Guess you feel similar, thank you so much for uploading.

[@rcherasaro]

I fell in love as soon as I heard The Voice it was a magical instrument was lucky to see him through all of his bands and solo gigs. The early Soundgarden stuff was freakn hitting me hard .I had left rock n roll during hair /disco era because I couldn't stand it and then...back in saddle with a big ole grin on my face .Thanks for uploading !!

[@madurodam]

I believe the Badmotorfinger tour had Chris at his best from a vocal point of view. Too bad I was 11 and my brother 17 when they played in Milan, my brother asked but my parents promptly said "No way you go to a rock concert with an 11 years old". By judging the Badmotorfinger performances... was really a pity!

[@davin6175]

It was a German TV concert recording audience, so probably a little more behaved and reserved being European and a pro shot TV thing. Plus, who would have heard anything remotely close to Beyond the Wheel at that time in Europe? Devistating. I would have been stunned stupid too.

Do y'all remember what year it was when SG won almost all the MTV awards when they got on stage and Chris said "We are not leaving this stage until you call us a heavy metal band"? I remember thinking they are the heaviest of all the heavy metal bands. Loved it. I remember the model stepping forward to the mic saying your a heavy metal band. I think it was 90 or 91? They showed up all wearing black and Chris's hair was cut off short. I think it was 1990, right? Great times, rest in peace brother Chris Cornell. Loud love forevermore!

[@adamwatson6916]

Chris cut his hair in 93. The award show you are talking about was in 94 or 95. Mainstream award shows would not have known who they were in 1990 . Their current album in 1990 would have been louder Than Love and great as it is was not cleaning up at award shows .

[@PallahDaOracle]

Soundgarden97 yeah chris is great, buuuut I'm gonna have to say Layne is a bit better. Muuuuuuch better singer live especially. Chris hit the craziest high notes, but layne was a lot more solid low to high.

[@brianmannion7097]

Pallah DaOracle Chris is a better songwriter and overall contributor to what projects he was in over the last 30 years. He wrote amazing solo work, movie soundtracks and did some of the best covers. Chris can sing in blues, funk, rnb, rock, classic rock and metal. Layne is just a rock voice with very depressing tone. There is no versatility. Also chris had a lower range aswell as high compared to layne so please stop with that misinformed crap. Chris also had this voice that was one in a million. The tone is his voice or his natural sounding voice you never get tired of listening too. You its cornell when you hear it. Put it this way. I wouldnt have like half of chris' solo work if there was any other guy singing it.

[@reinaldyroyani7718]
