(re-release from June 5, 2017)

Let’s face it, if you’re interested in this program, odds are you were either a Music fan and/or a Chris Cornell fan and know most or all of the details of losing him a scant few weeks ago so we’ll save you reading the saddening details yet again.

The idea of this show is to express how much of a fan Dan Minard and Randy W. Hall were, and are, of Chris Cornell. First in Soundgarden, then as a solo artist, and also in one-off Temple of the Dog and his well-known supergroup Audioslave.

In Part 1 we discuss our own fandoms and how he was one of Dan’s all-time favorite singers and how he has a degree from Cornell (as a student of the man, not the college) and his esteemed membership in the exclusive online community known as Knights of the Soundtable (it’s as awesome as it sounds ). Randy recalls how he got into Soundgarden his junior year of high school and how he considers ‘Badmotorfinger’ his all-time favorite Cornell featuring album. We also broach the touchy topic of his ill-fated 2009 solo project “Scream” because we’re anything if not thorough.

 

In Part 2 we discuss each of our favorite Cornell-sung songs in detail and Randy ( who’s never met a list he doesn’t like) reveals his eleven fave songs in descending order). Dan rolls his eyes and plays along as we pay tribute to one of the best voices of a generation and grieve yet again another legends untimely passing. This time it’s most definitely personal.
