Hater Tuesday

Yes that is a picture of Chris Cornell. And yes, it is there on purpose. How can you deny his hotness? I can’t. He is one of my first rock n roll crushes. I listened to Soundgarden’s Badmotorfinger today and fell in love all over again. That album rocks. And I am not saying that just because I think he is hot. The album really is a great rock album. Oh yeah and he is hot.

Judging from my internet searches the only people still infatuated with Chris Cornell are me and the Spanish. There were hells of sites from Spain dedicated to Chris Cornell and his various works. Strange.

But all comments about hotness aside, Badmotorfinger is a really great album that I had forgotten about. It is really rocking but not in a cheesy Stone Temple Pilots kind of way. The arrangement on it is incredible and Cornell’s vocals are stellar. I suggest you all revisit it with an open mind. Don’t bring any of that residual “grunge” state of mind with you. Just listen.

This experience has made me consider that maybe we should start listening to the music we liked back in ‘91. I think I am going to revist all the albums that reigned supreme on my 14 year old playlist to see how I feel about it now. Besides I am so tired of my current selections it is time to start fillin up ye old iPod with the hits from back in the day…
