Album features 10 cover songs
Chris Cornell’s family has surprised released a fully completed album of cover songs the rocker finished in 2016. Vicky Cornell and her children, Toni and Christopher, on behalf of The Chris Cornell Estate, release No One Sings Like You Anymore, featuring a handpicked collection of 10 cover songs, which Chris personally selected and sequenced to celebrate artists and songs that inspired him.
“This album is so special because it is a complete work of art that Chris created from start to finish,” Vicky Cornell says in a statement. “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.”
Recorded by Chris in 2016, the album, which is his last fully completed studio album before his untimely death in May 2017, features his renditions of John Lennon’s “Watching The Wheels,” Ghostland Observatory’s “Sad Sad City,” Harry Nilsson’s “Jump Into The Fire,” Carl Hall’s “You Don’t Know Nothing About Love,” Electric Light Orchestra’s “Showdown,” Terry Reid’s “To Be Treated Rite”, Lorraine Ellison’s “Stay With Me Baby”, “Get It While You Can,” popularized by Janis Joplin, and a new studio recording of “Nothing Compares 2 U,” written by Prince.
No One Sings Like You Anymore is available now digitally with physical configurations available on March 13th. CD, vinyl and picture disc offerings are available via his website.
