Soundgarden - Spoonman [Live At Guitar Center]

I gotta admit, I didn't give Kim the credit he deserved, he's so killer

[@Twobarpsi]

No he's not!

[@spitchc5293]

Cameron is a beast.

[@smackie001]

Cameron plays everything too fast

[@NilsHedstrom]

​@@smackie001 Well he doesn't use a click track so that might be why! Most professional drummer speed up(even the legend Stewart Copeland himself has the changing a little at times). I think Matt hold a pretty steady tempo/groove. If you were a PRO level live drummer you would have understood

[@stulora3172]

I think the correct term is not beast. It's ANIMAL.

Damn right he fuckin beasts one of the best drummers ever!!!🤘

Every single band member at the top of their game. There never was a tighter band. Chris's passing is a tragedy the entire music world will never fully recover from. I'm so grateful for the amazing music these guys gave us. Thank you

Tighter than a nut in a nutcracker.

a bit dramatic there, every zappa band ever assembled was tighter than soundgarden

[@jcreature11]

@@RJ-ox8onnot really they are just phenomenal musicians who can recover good and play whatever they want. Lot of what they did was improve. But sound garden wasn’t at the top in this video.

[@DASamX5453]

What grunge was mostly all about...the guitar riffs and sound...no one was better at it than Soundgarden!!

[@jamesbargar4469]

+DASamX5453 Soundgarden and Alice in Chains were both great in my opinions. Didn't care for Nirvana or Pearl jam that much

[@kobaliter8692]

[@MLCrow]

I like Alice in Chains more, Soundgarden is my second. Ehhhh, personal opinions..............

Best recording yet about Artis, the real spoonman from Seattle. RIP Chris.

[@AnCapone1899]

Hands down, the best riff of the 90s

[@kmsharley75]

Best riff of the 90’s was Room A Thousand Years Wide

[@fabiankellquist4630]

@@kmsharley75 No way, Spoonman is way better. Rooms is super simple, not that special for Soundgarden.

[@littlejohnnyconspiracytheo5315]

Outshined > spoon man

[@HellcatCustoms]

Spoonman riff owes a lot to Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.

[@Bdhacker101]

No the best riff comes from "Man in the Box" by Alice in Chains

[@XxStonedImmaculatexX]

I’m going to say this as a huge Nirvana fan and with Nirvana being my biggest inspiration but Kim is an absolute BEAST and the BEST, lead guitarist of the big 4!!!

[@carolynneforlenza9743]

True statement

[@dankeenan952]

Tied with Jerry 😜

[@XxStonedImmaculatexX]

@@dankeenan952 Jerry is one of my heros too and a bonafide riff master but he is more on the conventional side. Study and play some of Kim’s songs and you’ll see how much more diverse and creative Kim is. McCready is even more conventional that Jerry but good as well. None of the big 4 guitarist are as unorthodox and unconventional like Kim is!

[@XxStonedImmaculatexX]

@@dankeenan952 oh you said “tied” with Jerry. I am shit faced drunk now at 0300 hours but yes, I agree 100%

[@yliberal6355]

James Grant I agree!

[@labrakosgiann]

sorry guys i have to tell THIS IS THE BIGGEST BAND OF THE 90s GRUNGE ROCK.

[@MLCrow]

Just your opinion, the biggest (in general) is Nirvana by far (liked it or not) but my personal is Alice in Chains then Soundgarden.

[@qarynunez7949]

Nep... Nirvana = Alice in chains = Soundgarden = Pearl Jam

[@nuclearlung]

Gary nuñez why not include stp?

[@noiseystooges2950]

STP is my favorite.Then alice then soundgarden but "you know you're right" is a great song by Nirvana i just didnt get into them much

[@bazookajoe6133]

M.L. Crow AIC was great. Soundgarden was great. Two legendary singers gone way to soon. RIP Cornell

[@pineymusiccol]

RIP to one of the greatest!! best alternative álbum of the 90s

[@iram84mx1]

like the attitude of the bass player

[@mateusescossio1641]

Sir Ben, for you.

[@chadwaters5666]

You know your band is going to be good when you have probably the best drummer and singer of this era. It doesn't hurt to have a legendary guitar player also

[@jackob_c8732]

Kim Thayil's guitar solos 💛👌

[@NilsHedstrom]

Matt Cameron is such a talented musician and badass drummer! This is one of those typical songs where the drums gets to shine:)

[@WilanderMascrenhas]

Yah dude him and nick menza. Its like you know it's them when you hear the drum sound itself. It happens with so few drummers

[@chatek3858]

These Guys are super cool in their own ways RIP Chris

[@danieliger]

Very cool how Kim emulates the spoons with some string noise.

[@erikbillington7163]

I admit I’m just getting into Sound Garden so dont know much about them, but who the hell is this drummer? He is spectacular!

[@NilsHedstrom]

That is Matt Cameron, he is such a talented musician and amazing drummer! This is a pretty drum focused song and Matt plays that 7/4 groove so good! After Soundgarden sadly split up Matt Cameron joined another huge grunge band called Pearl Jam and he is still with them today if you want to check him out:)

[@javiceres]

Matt Cameron, he’s legendary good.

[@jeremymullins1294]

Matt's also a great song writer. He's written some of my favorite Soundgarden AND Pearl Jam songs!

2013 had the oppurtunity to see soundgarden in vancouver, free ticket, just had to pay for my flight, told my friend, nah not this time man, they'll make their rounds again, i never seen them live, always wanted to. Id say one of the biggest regrets i ever made

[@barbarablair464]

So effing awesome!

[@Boabywankenobi]

I love that in this band Chris Cornell looks average height. I met Chris in Denmark in 05' at Roskilde. He's a comfortable 6'3" if not 6'4". They grow em big in Seattle!

[@bodhisattva99]

They just had magic together... but life always has a way of fucking everything magic up.

Ben Shepherd is a dawg. That’s a real nasty bass tone. Perfecto. Also Matt Cameron rules. Seattles finest rhythm section.

[@leeevan6908]

I remember "Singles" (19912 film by Cameron Crowe)

[@FARID1870]

we need singers as full-throated as Chris again!

[@goosethemighty]

With a voice like Chris you see it hundred times, they pound out the hits screeching their voice and it sound amazing but as time unfolds so does their voice; to the point, they can't sing the songs the way we remember them because they are too old and the vocals to worn out. But this video shows that either Chris never pushed his voice so we may never know the true depth of his rnage or 2 his range was so natural he didn't have to push it. One of the top vocalist of any genre of his generation.

[@Breadchi13]

can't wait to see this guy's in denver on may! #GrungeItsNotDead

[@music_istherapy8860]

Their guitar sessions performances put me in the mind state of Linkin Park performances on AOL they are absolutely phenomenal and for those who've seen it know that Chester did that long note on Given Up something he didn't do often. Absolutely astonishing. I especially liked the Limo Wreck performance

+Music_Is Therapy Dude don't even think of comparing Linkin Park with Soundgarden!!

@@WilanderMascrenhas Wasn't comparing as there is none. I said they put me in the mind if their AOL performance. I mentioned a specific performance. Comprehension is 🔑. Edit: don't tell me what to think..

[@harrycallahan9143]

0:34 I don't think Ben's annoyed with anyone in particular person in the crowd, i think hes fucked off with the whole crowd standing there with cameras! Ben likes rocking out and enjoying himself, loves getting into it and when you see a whole crowd just standing there like dummy's holding cameras its so disheartening.

[@fromhereon014]

I was there. Ben was raging because the sound staff couldn't work out his monitors. He flipped them off several times during and between songs

Awesome song. But I just cannot stand it how somewhere along the line (for whatever reason) Matt Cameron made the huge mistake to speed up the songs, even before he started mangling Pearl Jam's ones. Bring back Dave! Does anyone know why Matt started doing this? [el'sda2].
