You know, Jimi Hendrix also only had one hit.

RIP, Shannon. 20 years ago today. A kind soul, by all accounts.

An underrated band from the 90’s with a one-of-a-kind blend of folk, blues, grunge, alternative rock, and psychedelic.

They had one commercial hit, but they were an amazing band. No Rain was is so overplayed almost thirty years later that I was so annoyed with the band I never gave them a second thought. One of my best friends turned me onto their second album and the rest is history. Their first two albums have about 8 combined songs that shit on anything out there today. Grossly underrated and Shannon will never be seen in the same light as his other grunge peers, even though his soul had much greater depths. RIP Shannon Hoon, and hopefully one day they do end up making it in.

regardless if anyone realizes it or not they have special place in my heart. I don't understand all you people, "no rain" has and always will stand the test of time. I don't care i love it and listen to it endlessly. It's the perfect song.

Blind Melon should and will be inducted into the hall of fame. It's not just about NO RAIN OR ALL I CAN SAY AS IT IS ALSO REFERRED TO. Every time I listen to the song SOUP no matter how hard I try to keep the tears in, I can't. A tribute to Kurt and his sudden death, and sadly Shannon to a short time later. Listen to their albums. I am old. I have always thought that the Beatles were the greatest band in the world, until I heard Blind Melon. Beatles songwriting and music can't compare to Blind Melons in my opinion. Needless to say I dropped the Beatles and Blind Melon is my favorite band to this day. Listen to their music and songwriting in all their work and you just might end up feeling the same. They will be in the hall. Some things just take time.
