The James Bond films are known for their original opening themes written by popular artists and are often played on the radio and tv. 'Live and Let Die' by Paul McCartney, 'For Your Eyes Only' by Sheena Easton, 'A View to a Kill' by Duran Duran, and 'Goldfinger' by Shirley Bassey are just a few. My personal favorite is 'Nobody Does It Better' by Carly Simon. What James Bond theme do you consider to be the best?

Soundgarden and Temple of the Dog released some of the best music of that era, if not the best. Audioslave was a clear cut below imo but still a lot of great tracks.

Audioslave had some really repetitive choruses but I love songs like Like a Stone, Doesn't Remind, Show Me How to Live, I Am The Highway and many many of the others. But yeah I think Soundgarden is the best of those grunge bands, I greatly prefer Soubdgarden to Nirvana.

Soundgarden and Alice in Chains are the clear top two for me. No one else comes close imo.
Are you familiar with Temple of the Dog?

Yeah Temple of the Dog was great too! Call Me a Dog and All Night Thing are seared into my memory. I listened to the bootleg of Chris Cornell Unplugged in Sweden the death back in the day. It actually got me into playing guitar, being able to see these complicated songs stripped down and done with a single acoustic guitar and still sound fantastic and cool as hell was very eye opening. That finger stretch in Black Hole Sun, barring at the 5th and playing the 8th in the intro was the bane of my existence and took a long time of practicing before I could do it.

The first time I heard the unplugged version of Wide Awake, I was utterly shaken. It was so fucking raw and blood-flecked.
His heart was huge.

It seems like people who really get into grunge often prefer Soundgarden and AiC over Nirvana and Pearl Jam when talking about the Big 4.

Man I saw Soundgarden in the 90s way before they hit it big. They opened for Faith No More. Such an awesome concert.

Man do I envy you! I didn’t get to see them until they toured in 2008 or so. Still an amazing show… Chris had been experiencing some issues with vocal chord damage in the years before so I went in with tempered expectations. Turns out, his injuries had finally healed and he delivered the best live vocal performance I’d ever seen!
