I honestly think that Blind Melon was perhaps the best band of the 90s. Nirvana and RHCP and other bands made a huge impact, but musically Blind Melon was amazing. Most people only know "No Rain" but they had many great songs and Shannon Hoon was a great singer and songwriter. They're like a modern day led zeppelin.

if you're not into them...try these songs:

Paper Scratcher
The Pusher (a stephen wolf cover)
Candy Says
Soul One
Dear ol' Dad
Seed to a Tree
Soak the Sun

there are many others...these should get u started

I personally don't think the Red Hots and Blind Melon are even in the same....... sport. I mean, RHCP has been around for a lot longer than BM and produced a lot more great music. I mean, whats BM's latest release? Hehehe.

Anyway, my input...

(I do like BM tho... just, they have nothing on RHCP.)

I've always dug Blind Melon...i think my fav bm song is soak the sun...or maybe sleepyhouse...

I actually got to see them live the night before shannon hoon (i think that was his name) died...needless to say he was under a massive influence of something, and it wasn't the best lasting image to have of a great band, but that's what they are

I never listened to themmuch when they were around. But in retrospect, they were a great band. They managed to rock but still add something funky, something danceable, in there. A really underrated band.

Great call BubblingBong. IMO, the two best bands of the 90's were (in order):
The Black Crowes
Blind Melon

Shannon was wicked good at writing lyrics. I was driving to work the other morning blasting their self titled disc thinking, 'Man, I'm probably the only person in Columbus rockin' to Blind Melon right now.'

Peace.
