Yeah, solo is tricky. Chris Cornell and Jerry Cantrell, two terrific musicians, had/have a hard time going it alone without the bands that made them famous. Jerry's put out terrific stuff, but practically no one's heard about. It took Chris Cornell to hook up with a pretty established band to make a comeback. His Euphoria Morning solo CD is absolutely beautiful, but I'm guessing only die-hard fans have picked that up, and that core is usually small. Casual Soundgarden fans probably don't even know he made it. Plus, a lot of people don't give the solo stuff a chance because they automatically dismiss it simply because it is solo. I guess Sting has done pretty well for himself, but he went poppish, so it's a different deal. It's harder for rock types, I think.
