Tuesday, August 11, 2009 Would (You Hire Elton John To Replace Layne Staley)? JeffreyBeaumont: Did you know layne staley weighed 86 pounds when they found his body? JeffreyBeaumont: he was 6'1 JeffreyBeaumont: and apparently there is a new alice in chains album coming out in september JeffreyBeaumont: first since 1995 jaychampionvinyl: not only that: jaychampionvinyl: "Among the many highlights on Black Gives Way To Blue, the highly anticipated new album from ALICE IN CHAINS, is a special guest performance by Elton John. The two rock legends collaborated on the album's stunning title track, "Black Gives Way To Blue," a heart-stirring tribute to Alice In Chains' late lead singer Layne Staley. " JeffreyBeaumont: !!!! jaychampionvinyl: hahahahaha JeffreyBeaumont: that was a joke right? jaychampionvinyl: noooope. that is a press release I received just THIS morning jaychampionvinyl: ""We were thinking about adding piano to the track and a friend suggested we call Elton," recalls guitarist/vocalist Jerry Cantrell. "I remember laughing and saying, 'Yeah, I’ll get right on that.' But I decided it was worth trying and wrote Elton an email explaining what that song means to us--that it's a real, raw openhearted song for Layne. We sent him the track and got a call shortly after saying he thought it was beautiful and that he wanted to play on it. We were blown away. Elton John is a huge influence on me as a songwriter and having him on that song is an amazing honor for us."" JeffreyBeaumont: ..... JeffreyBeaumont: i'm not sure what that means JeffreyBeaumont: man, this screaming trees track on the singles soundtrack JeffreyBeaumont: so great JeffreyBeaumont: i'm happy mark lanegan has had some extended life the past 10 years jaychampionvinyl: hahaha jaychampionvinyl: you literally could not deal with the information I just gave you so you changed the subject Labels: 1990s, IMs, Jayson Greene In Spirit, music posted by Nihilist Loves Hate, Hates Everything at 8/11/2009 11:08:00 AM 0 comments |
