...here we are, a year to the day since the death of Chris Cornell.

It's been a year and I am still stuck for words. I've not been able to listen to any of his music until the last month or so but here we are, a year to the day since the death of Chris Cornell.

Whilst everyone else was getting off on Nirvana, I was listening to Soundgarden, the slow, heavy intensity of "Badmotor Finger" still one of my favourite albums of all time.

This is the year I first saw them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0s1g9L6FgU

This is from Hyde Park Calling just after they reformed, I was there with both my daughters, amazing to see them as it was something I never thought I'd see again:

This song, despite being called "Like Suicide", isn't about suicide...so don't judge me, I just love the song.

I have already been reaching out to my other friends that will be feeling today, making suggestions as to what needs to go on the playlist. If this is the biggest hurt that I have today then I am living a privileged life, I am thankful for many things, including Chris Cornell and his music.

Long live the greatest voice in rock
