Remembering Layne Staley & Mike Starr 💙

There was also an improvisational element to how he recorded. Dirt engineer Bryan Carlstrom remembers that when working on the song “Them Bones” with Staley, Staley told him, “Oh, I hear a little vocal part I want to stick in the song.“ As he was hearing the music played back to him on his headphones, Staley began singing the "Ah!” screams timed to Cantrell’s guitar riff. He tracked the screams once or twice.“He just made that up on the spot,” Carlstrom says. Cantrell is credited for the music and lyrics to the song, but it’s difficult to imagine it without those screams.

Layne in Japan, 1993

In this magazine Layne talked about his relationship with Demri w/o saying her name. And how he & Demri were upset about the cover of “Dirt”. Mainly because the women on the cover looks like her.
