More Info:
Blind Melon is the eponymous debut album by the rock band Blind Melon, released on September 22, 1992 through Capitol Records. "No Rain" became Blind Melon's breakthrough single. Blind Melon's production is marked by the use of outdated amplifiers and other antiquated studio technology. Modern studio effects were not used in it's production as the band wanted to create a pure and "intimate" sounding record. Hoon stated, "We all kind of liked the production that was on a lot of early Stones records, [where] whatever it is you're playing is what it's going to sound like." On the album, Rogers Stevens' guitar playing is predominantly heard in the right channel, while Chris Thorn's is in the left.Reviews:
''Blind Melon'' is the debut album by the rock band Blind Melon, released September 22, 1992 (see 1992 in music). Fronted by singer Shannon Hoon, ''Blind Melon'' had a distinctive traditional rock sound, influenced by Southern rock and psychedelic music. The aggressive leads and shouted vocals of "Soak The Sin" and "Tones of Home" evoked heavy metal; "Time's" spacious bridge and ambient, winding outro shared commonalities with Grateful Dead-style improvisational music; while heavily acoustic songs "Change" and "No Rain" hinted at pop and folk influences. "No Rain" became Blind Melon's breakthrough single. - Wikipedia
