I really like Cornell's voice, instantly recognizable no matter what band he plays in.

Probably a combination of the timing of the punch, the tape machine, itself, the distortion making it more noticeable, and the reverb tail being cut off.<br /><br />There may be more during the vocal track, but it was too hard to listen to all the way through with that crummy sounding distortion.<br /><br />I think the reason singers of that period wanted distortion on their vocals was to try and emulate the old tube preamp overload of 1950-60s vocal recordings, but, mistakenly, used fuzz pedals or digital "modeling" to achieve the effect, and it just DIDN'T WORK!!Bob Buontempohttp://www.AnalogRecordingForums.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913752433926766420.post-18751720619893312212010-07-20T08:19:35.575-07:002010-07-20T08:19:35.575-07:00I have said for years that Chris Cornell is among ...I have said for years that Chris Cornell is among the greatest rock singers of all time- Its great to see it blogged so well and hearing an isolated vocal track is just great. <br /><br />This may be my favorite Big Picture post yet!M Pallantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12161369864497765598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913752433926766420.post-90296540545533452932010-07-19T22:44:28.523-07:002010-07-19T22:44:28.523-07:00Holy lord, that is some gross, gross distortion.
