Info for Core (Deluxe Edition - Remastered)

Als die Stone Temple Pilots 1992 ihr Album "Core" veröffentlichten, rissen sie Fans under Kritiker gleichermaßen mit und feierten mit den Songs wie "Sex Type Thing“, "Wicked Garden" und "Plush" ihren internationalen Durchbruch – Letzteres gewann 1994 sogar einen Grammy in der Kategorie "Best Hard Rock Performance".

Core führte sofort zum internationalen Durchbruch, spielte sich auf Platz 3 der Billboard-Charts, mischte die Radioszene mit Songs wie »Sex Type Thing« und »Wicked Garden« auf und hat bislang 8-faches US-Platin erreicht! Für die Hit-Single »Plush« gab es 1994 einen Grammy in der Sparte Best Hard Rock Performance.

Zum »silbernen Jubiläum« von Core feiert Rhino das Durchbruchs-Album – auf den Tag genau 25 Jahre nach der Erstveröffentlichung. Die Deluxe-Version erscheint mit der neu gemasterten Version des Originalalbums, das um rare B-Seiten und bisher unveröffentlichte Demos ergänzt wurde. Fast alle Tracks der CD 2 sind zum ersten Mal erhältlich. Von den neun enthaltenen Demos wurde vier zwischen 1987 und 1990 aufgenommen, als die Band noch unter dem Namen »Mighty Joe Young« firmierte. Eines der Demos, »Only Dying«, ist ein bisher unveröffentlichter Song, den die Stone Temple Pilots ursprünglich für den legendären Soundtrack The Crow neu aufnehmen wollte.

Fünf weitere unveröffentlichte Demos stammen aus den Atlantic-Sessions für das Album, vier B-Seiten runden die Bonus-CD ab, darunter eine jazzig swingende Version von »Sex Type Thing« sowie zwei akustische Versionen von »Plush«: Die »Acoustic Type Version«, die mit der kompletten Band eingespielt wurde, und der selten gehörte »First Take«, den Weiland und Dean LeDeo 1993 für das MTV-Format Headbanger's Ball aufgenommen hatten.

Since the moment they appeared on the scene in the early 90's, Stone Temple Pilots dominated the decade from start to finish, racking up 15 singles on the Billboard Top Ten, winning a "Best Hard Rock Performance" GRAMMY in 1994 for for "Plush," and having their five albums sell more than 35 million copies worldwide. Of all their peers, STP alone had sustained commercial success, earning greater critical acclaim with each release, building a body of work that remains popular and its enduring acclaim has only highlighted the absence of the band, who quietly went their separate ways after the turn-of the millennium release of Shangri-La Dee Da. Despite the presence of the greatest hits album Thank You in 2003, there has been a generation that has never witnessed the live power of the vocalist Scott Weiland, guitarist Dean DeLeo, bassist Robert DeLeo and drummer Eric Kretz live in concert, a situation that will be remedied this summer when the band reunites for a long-awaited and highly anticipated tour.

A dominant force in rock music since their inception, the group's impressively extensive and top-selling music has cemented their standing as one of the most successful rock groups of all time. Scott Weiland and Robert DeLeo met at a Black Flag concert in Long Beach, California, discovering in the course of their conversation that the two were dating the same girl. Instead of sparking a rivalry, this common ground was the foundation of a friendship, with the pair moving into the girl's apartment after she left town. Weiland and DeLeo formed a band called Mighty Joe Young, with drummer Eric Kretz joining the lineup soon afterward, with Robert's brother Dean coming aboard not long after that. Soon, the group established themselves as a draw in San Diego, eventually gaining the attention of Atlantic Records who signed them in 1991. After hearing that there was a blues singer calling himself Mighty Joe Young, the group changed their name to Stone Temple Pilots during the recording of their 1992 debut album, Core.

Core was bracing blend of grunge guitars, classic rock moves and big pop hooks. At first, the ironic swagger of "Sex Type Thing" brought them onto MTV and radio, but it was "Plush" that blew the doors wide open for the band, establishing them as multi-platinum act in 1993. A pair of subsequent singles were released from Core -- "Wicked Garden" and the spooky, acoustic "Creep" -- before they delivered Purple in 1994. A large, eager fan base snatched Purple up upon its opening week, sending it to # 1 but Purple wasn't a one-week wonder, it grew as the record spun off hit after hit: first there was the majestic, cryptic "Big Empty," taken from The Crow soundtrack, then there was "Vasoline," which was followed by the modern rock classic "Interstate Love Song," a radio smash that stayed on the top of Billboard's Album Rock charts for 15 weeks, besting the record set by the Rolling Stones' "Start Me Up."
