Stone Free: A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix is a 1993 album recorded by various artists in tribute to Jimi Hendrix. The artists were drawn from many genres of popular music. Contributors include his classic rock contemporaries Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck, blues man Buddy Guy, classical violinist Nigel Kennedy, alternative pop/rock bands Belly and Spin Doctors, hip hop artists PM Dawn, among others. According to the liner notes, the “artists were encouraged to not only record one of their own personal favorites but to also place their stamp on Jimi’s songs.” Several artists recorded radically different interpretations, particularly, PM Dawn, The Cure, Nigel Kennedy and Pat Metheny. Some artists, on the other hand, recorded versions that were rather similar to the originals. The band MACC is made up of Mike McCready (guitarist from Pearl Jam), Jeff Ament (bassist from Pearl Jam), Matt Cameron (drummer for Soundgarden and later for Pearl Jam), and Chris Cornell (singer of Soundgarden and later Audioslave). The cover of “Hey Baby (Land of the New Rising Sun)” is their only known recording. All four members of this group had previously worked together on the Temple of the Dog project.

^___^ + ::)))) All the faces All the voices blur Change to one face Change to one voice Prepare yourself for bed The light seems bright And glares on white walls All the sounds of Charlotte sometimes Into the night with Charlotte sometimes Night after night she lay alone in bed Her eyes so open to the dark The streets all looked so strange They seemed so far away But Charlotte did not cry The people seemed so close Playing expressionless games The people seemed So close So many Other names… Sometimes I’m dreaming Where all the other people dance Sometimes I’m dreaming Charlotte sometimes Sometimes I’m dreaming Expressionless the trance Sometimes I’m dreaming So many different names Sometimes I’m dreaming The sounds all stay the same Sometimes I’m dreaming She hopes to open shadowed eyes On a different world Come to me Scared princess Charlotte sometimes On that bleak track (See the sun is gone again) The tears were pouring down her face She was crying and crying for a girl Who died so many years before… Sometimes I dream Where all the other people dance Sometimes I dream Charlotte sometimes Sometimes I dream The sounds all stay the same Sometimes I’m dreaming There are so many different names Sometimes I dream Sometimes I dream… Charlotte sometimes crying for herself Charlotte sometimes dreams a wall around herself But it’s always with love With so much love it looks like Everything else Of Charlotte sometimes So far away Glass sealed and pretty Charlotte sometimes
I’ve been looking so long at these pictures of you That I almost believe that they’re real I’ve been living so long with my pictures of you That I almost believe that the pictures are All I can feel Remembering You standing quiet in the rain As I ran to your heart to be near And we kissed as the sky fell in Holding you close How I always held close in your fear Remembering You running soft through the night You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow And screamed at the make-believe Screamed at the sky And you finally found all your courage To let it all go Remembering You fallen into my arms Crying for the death of your heart You were stone white So delicate Lost in the cold You were always so lost in the dark Remembering you How you used to be Slow drowned You were angels So much more than everything Hold for the last time then slip away quietly Open my eyes But I never see anything If only I’d thought of the right words I could have held on to your heart If only I’d thought of the right words I wouldn’t be breaking apart All my pictures of you Looking so long at these pictures of you But I never hold on to your heart Looking so long for the words to be true But always just breaking apart My pictures of you There was nothing in the world That I ever wanted more Than to feel you deep in my heart There was nothing in the world That I ever wanted more Than to never feel the breaking apart All my pictures of you

A FOREST Come closer and see See into the trees Find the girl While you can Come closer and see See into the dark Just follow your eyes Just follow your eyes I hear her voice Calling my name The sound is deep In the dark I hear her voice And start to run Into the trees Into the trees Into the trees Suddenly I stop But I know it’s too late I’m lost in a forest All alone The girl was never there It’s always the same I’m running towards nothing Again and again and again
I miss the warm embrace I felt First time you touched me Secure and safe in open arms I should have known youd crush me A snake you were when we met I loved you anyway Pulling out your poisoned fangs The venom never goes away Serpent swims free in my blood Dragons sleeping in my veins Jacky| speaking with tongue Roach egg laying in my brain Once stalked beneath your shadow Sleepwalking to the gallows Im the sun that beats your brow in Til I finally threw the towel Never knowing if Id wake up in a Whirlpool got redundant My brain was just some driftwood In a cesspool I became dead ]from a rock star to a desk fool Was my destiny someone said Loves a tidepool Taste the waters lifes abundant Taste me
