Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell died in 2017, but he left behind several unreleased songs, including a few covers that have leaked in the past few years.
A collection of those covers has surprisingly come out today on a new album, as Ultimate Classic Rock reported. No One Sings Like You Anymore features ten variations on classic tracks by John Lennon, Prince, ELO and Guns N’ Roses.
All the instruments on No One Sings Like You Anymore were played by Cornell and producer Brendan O’Brien.
“This album is so special because it is a complete work of art that Chris created from start to finish. His choice of covers provides a personal look into his favorite artists and the songs that touched him. He couldn’t wait to release it. This moment is bittersweet because he should be here doing it himself, but it is with both heartache and joy that we share this special album,” said Vicky Cornell in a press release.
A digital version is out now; a physical release (including vinyl) is available for pre-order and will be out March 13.
The track listing:
“Get It While You Can” (Janis Joplin)
“Jump Into the Fire” (Harry Nilsson)
“Sad Sad City” (Ghostland Observatory)
“Patience” (Guns N’ Roses)
“Nothing Compares 2 U” (Prince)
“Watching the Wheels” (John Lennon)
“You Don’t Know Nothing About Love” (Carl Hall)
“Showdown” (ELO)
“To Be Treated Rite” (Terry Reid)
“Stay With Me Baby” (Lorraine Ellison)
