Listen to Chris Cornell’s Previously Unreleased Cover of Guns N’ Roses’ “Patience”

In honour of what would have been his 56th birthday today, Chris Cornell’s family has shared a previously unheard track of Cornell covering the Guns N’ Roses song “Patience.”

In a Facebook message, Cornell’s family said: “His birthday seemed the perfect time to share this and celebrate Chris, his voice, music, stories and art. It is true a man is not dead while his name is still spoken… and, through his art, an artist’s soul still burns just as bright as ever upon all those that look up to him and his memory. Releasing music that was special to Chris keeps a part of him here with us — his heart and his soul. His love and his legacy.”


Cornell’s version adds some lush orchestration to track, with his massive voice adding a soulful new spin to the GN’R classic. Listen to “Patience” below.

In other Chris Cornell news, Corbin Reiff’s Total F*cking Godhead: The Biography of Chris Cornell is out on July 28th via Post Hill Press. Stay tuned for our piece on the biography later this week.
