Chris Cornell – No One Sings Like You Anymore

Review

"No One Sings Like You Anymore, Vol. 1" is kind of a love letter from the rock icon Chris Cornell to music history. Released after his untimely death, this album is a treasure trove of Cornell's favorite tracks, all lovingly covered in his unique style. Just imagine it, the voice that belted out Soundgarden and Audioslave anthems, now breathing new life into tunes from a diverse array of legends, ranging from John Lennon to Prince. It's like he's having a conversation across time with these other greats, showing us just how wide his range really was.

As you listen, you can really feel the care Cornell put into this project. The album isn't just a casual stroll through nostalgia; it's a display of his raw talent and ability to inject his own brand of soul into already classic tracks. When you realize that Chris himself picked out these songs and laid them down with the legendary producer Brendan O’Brien, it adds this layer of intimacy and intention to it all. It's a bittersweet collection that ultimately cements Chris's place as one of the great voices in rock—undeniably distinctive and sorely missed. - Melody
