As Hope And Promise Fade (Live at Hotel Cafe)
Tonight Chris Cornell plays a much-anticipated solo acoustic set at LA's historic Troubadour Club, which has showcased legendary performances by everyone from Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell to Radiohead and Rise Against.
Meanwhile, here's a taste of the very first show in Cornell's acoustic 'Songbook' series at the city's Hotel Cafe back in December - the first such US show since before the days of Soundgarden. Chris explains why dazzling blues 'Two Drink Minimum' is getting a name change before launching into a stripped-down solo performance which brings out every nuance of Scream's 'secret' track.
