Soundgarden

In January 1992, when the live recording of "Outshined" was captured, Soundgarden was riding the wave of their critically acclaimed album, "Badmotorfinger," which was released in September 1991. This album marked a significant turning point in their career, solidifying their place in the burgeoning grunge movement alongside contemporaries like Nirvana and Pearl Jam. "Outshined" became one of the standout tracks from "Badmotorfinger" and showcased Chris Cornell's powerful vocal range and the band's intricate sound dynamics. Interestingly, the live performance features Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam providing backing vocals, highlighting the camaraderie among bands in the Seattle music scene during this era. This period was pivotal for Soundgarden as they transitioned from relative underground success to mainstream prominence, setting the stage for their future endeavors.
