Chris Cornell

Very very good

I think this is really the best out of the whole selection you had to choose from. Some songs are still hard to listen to even after two years. Well worth the money. The packaging is a little tricky, but its all about the music for me. Nice keepsake to one of the greatest rock voices ever, if not the best (imho).

Excellent musician.

If your a Chris Cornell fan do yourself a favor buy this compilation... this is the evolution of his unbelievable talent. 4 CDs including tracks from the beginning of his career with SG, TOTD and Audioslave along with his solo releases. His vocals and lyrics were constantly changing, I didn't realize how much until now.. wish he was still here, his death is a tragic and horrible loss.

Lots of great music from a musician who left us to early. The version of "Nothing Compares 2U" is worth the price of this disc. I am writing this review with tears in my eyes thinking about the amazing music we could have got from Mr. Cornell. This is an amazing CD. Hope you enjoy this CD, Lots of great songs.

Every song hits me deep, the voice, the lyrics, the creativity, the passion, the curiosity, he had it all. Though I think he was a little too worried about politics, thinking it actually mattered which puppet was in office. Surprised by his support of one candidate over another, yet one should be credited with trying the status quo which is working good enough.

My only compliant is the limited number of songs, but it does illustrate what a talent he was. From front man of one of Seattle's heaviest, no holds barred, right in your face, band Soundgarden to his progression into unfamiliar territory, as a solo acoustic artist. No one will ever match his voice. No one can sing like him. No one ever will. The only reason this fine collection exists is because of the shortness of his life. The packaging is fantastic as well. The size of the box, The partial slip case hiding half of his face, one side a forest, the other a Seattle sky line, perfectly encapsalizes his talent from beginning to end. The CDs matching his influence and talent are separated nicely by the choice of the tracks selected for each CD in there own slip cases are nicely covered by a single image from his periods in his storied career. You want to put this on a shelf to display it, not hide it in a collection of the standard CDs you've collected. It deserves being displayed.

I really wish I could give it a four and a half . This is great collection that definitely shows off Chris Cornell's versatility as an artist. In this collection he grows from the banchee screaming grunge singer of Soundgarden to the bluesy rock of Temple of the dog to the monster that was audioslave and all threw the vastly different rock and pop of his solo career. The low point of the collection for me is the two songs from the scream album which I guess no one liked. I see why they felt they needed to include the songs just as a part of who he was but I didn't feel they needed two from that album. Also I did not care for the song Lies but it just wasn't my taste . Highlights other than his obvious massive hits include his multiple soundtrack songs which are all pretty amazing in different ways. The live tracks are nothing short of incredible. I like having all these random songs that I've had here and there over rthe years on one album.there was definitely new stuff I had not heard and I love the last few songs he recorded such as the promise, til the sun comes back around,and the final solo song when bad does good. I thought the version of whole lotta love with Chris and Santana was great. I love the live song with his daughter she is truly talented. I'm glad this set was released.i love it and it just breaks my heart that Chris had to die for us to get something like this. His memory and voice will never die . I'm glad I have this album but it's a sad reminder that's this is truly the end of Chris Cornell's music,barring the release of a final pieced together Soundgarden album.
