    Sick to my stomach. Superunknown is a "desert island album" for me. I'm fortunate that I got to see him play with Audioslave, but never made it to a Soundgarden show. Really regretting that this morning.

      Really love Soundgarden (especially Superunknown and Down On The Upside) , but his best work (imo) came with the Temple Of The Dog project.

      That is a Desert Island album for me. I wore out that cassette back in 1991 2 times. An iconic rock album.

      And his song Seasons on the Singles soundtrack is legendary.

      Just a great rock icon......lost far too soon. Chris was not a user. Must be something so sudden and unexpected.

      I am really sad this morning.

        RIP Chris Cornell.

        First Cobain, then Layne Stayley Scott Weiland and now Chris Cornell.

        Thoughts and prayers to the family and friends.

            I can't even process this yet. Cornell was and is a large part of my musical identity. He was the leaping off point for me as I started to really dive into music. Audioslave was the first concert I went to and I still remember it vividly. I managed to get to see Soundgarden when they got back together several years at the same venue.

            I feel there's a lot to say in an attempt to show my appreciation. All of the Soundgarden albums have clicked with me at different stages and moods in my life. Temple of the Dog will forever be my favorite album of all-time. Euphoria Mourning is an apt title for his first solo album right now. There's a lot to say, but I can't find the words. Try as hard as I can, but words aren't coming to me - only songs.

                I always thought that your screen name was for the Soundgarden song of the same name...which is an awesome song.

                RIP Chris..

                Proud to say I saw Soundgarden at Constitution Hall in 2013....

                So sad today... listening to SG now...4th of July...

                    For the many years of posting with you in the music thread, I know Chris is one of your favorite artists and singers.

                    This world has lost a great artist.

                          Below is my eulogy of sorts. It has helped a minimal amount putting into words my appreciation for his craft and the connections it made to me. I'm still processing it all.

                              Damn this really sucks!! My wife and I are huge fans of his music. Soundgarden, Audioslave and all the solo stuff he did. I wish we could have seem him live solo or with one the bands. We used his version of the Led Zeppelin song "Thank You" as our wedding song. He will be missed greatly.

                              Thank You!!
