Stone Temple Pilots

Before the live recording featuring Kate Hudson's cover of "Vasoline," Stone Temple Pilots were already established as a significant force in the rock music scene, having released their debut album, "Core," in 1992, followed by "Purple" in 1994, which included several hits that solidified their success. By the time "Vasoline" became popular, STP had cultivated a distinct sound mixing grunge with alternative rock elements. The band's dynamic had evolved through the years, especially with the challenges they faced, including internal conflicts and the lead singer Scott Weiland's struggles with addiction. The cover performed by Hudson showcases the enduring influence of STP's music, indicating that their legacy persists beyond the band's active years. This performance highlights the cultural impact of their songwriting, illustrating how their songs continue to resonate with both established artists and new audiences.
