Shannon Hoons mother gave this set of tracks to members of the blind melon forum in 2008. So very cool. She could have sold this stashed away set of raw emotional masterpieces, but decided to give back to the very people who fell in love with Shannon and Blind Melon. Rest is history!!
melonhead34 BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL!!! THANK YOU MAMA NEL!!❤️
Wow that’s amazing. Good family makes good people.
I love you, Shannon Hoon's mom. Thanks
It means a lot.
Yay Momma!!!.. So thankful to be able to hear these.... ...
Happy 52nd birthday Shannon Hoon. Rest peacefully my friend.
I love this because it feels like he's in my room with me
That's how I feel too. I can't stop listening to this video since discovering 2 days ago.
I was 20 years old when he died. I often wonder how much more music they would have produced with Shannon. I wonder what he'd be like now. I never met him, but I miss him like he was an old friend. His music got me through lots of stuff that happens to us all from 17 - 23 years of age. Still getting me through stuff at age 48. RIP Shannon.
exactly.
I miss Shannon's bright soul & warming voice. Miss you man
...I find myself singing....these same songs everyday!!
Never stop singing girl!
This must be at least 20 years old, and unreleased but still has over 14,000 views in the last year. Still some fans out there! RIP Shannon.
We are a dying breed but we're still out there😉 I am so BLESSED & GRATEFUL this is my generation & that I got to see Shannon live before she past. This is truly EPIC! RAW, EMOTIONAL PURE GENIUS! Shannon THANK YOU FOR YOU! You have truly changed my life during my darkest days! I always put this album on when I need a good dance, sing, & smile....by myself!
2019 melon heads strong 🍉💚✌🏼💚✌🏼💚
Cory Slyman I’m 4 years too late but this was recorded in 1994
I was born in '99 but my dad always played Blind Melon in the car for me from when I was growing up. I used to ask him to put on Letters From a Porcupine when I was maybe 3/4. One of my favorite bands of all time.
@@NAMASTEONELOVE hells yeah!!! 2019 way down and far below just dropped like a gift from the melon gods. I hope this is the year they get some much deserved love from the world. Hoping all I can say gets to see the light of day! Can't wait to see it.
Shannon = Endless Magic
All the day today I´m listening to Andy Wood and Shannon Hoon. My heart is crying for them.
Absolutely magical...Rest in peace, Shannon, you are truly missed.
I could listen to blind melon all day every day. I can’t say that for any other band
I do listen all day every day 😂 I don't know what it is exactly. Or why. It just is.
Amen!
I know Im kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good website to watch new series online?
Me to for the last year it has made my life easier and better
Just came a cross this 🤦🏻♂️ been a melonhead since 93 from the Netherlands where they were not well known. So hearing “new” material is just amazing… luv his voice so much 🙏🏻
The most raw, poetic masterpiece of a coked up beautiful genius & his acoustic. I got turned on to Blind Melon back when no one new who they were & feel in love & got hooked IMMEDIATELY... to not only their mix of jam rock/melodic rock/blue grass/rock, but Shannon. His Beauty, which reminded me a lot of another love, the late Andrew Wood, not only in appearance but through his pain in his poetry. I related to Shannon, for I lived & endured a lot of the same pain, especially with addiction, depression, fear, loneliness, love, loss...a introvert traped in the shell of an extrovert, a empath/indigo, a hauntingly beautiful soul. Shannon has a way of making you both dance like a free spirit while crying from relateable pain within the same poem, in which both occur throughout when putting on this raw album from start to finish. I put it on when happy, depressed, deeply hurting, need a good cry, want to dance free without a care in the world, or all of the above. From Shannon To You & You & You has been one of the greatest, most beautiful gifts ever given to me, for inspired me to finally buy an acoustic, & learn to play so I can channel my pain in ways besides self destruction & slow suicide. Like Shannon did, I have my lover, therapist, best friend, inner voice, & life's greatest joy which will never abandon me, all within the strings of my Martin...in which I named Hoon. If you never heard this materpiece before, you have just stumbled across a raw emotional preformance of a beautiful man & soul in the grips of hell, & a 22 minute life changing experience. After all these years (I discovered & was blessed/fortunate to stumble across this tape very early on), I still listen to from start to finish, while also often playing along with From Shannon To You & You & You, at least 2x a week. I lost my tape copy years ago, though had it transferred onto CD, then MP3, & now have it saved here on UA-cam thanks to you (honestly, you hold one of the few copies out there. You cannot even find this on Spotify). Out of all your views, I swear I'm a good 10,000 of them. I hold & cherish this gift in my heart forever, ESPECIALLY since I've learned to play (I prefer over the studio versions). Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Shannon & you who uploaded this. I pray that someday, someone who is suffering in silence discovers this & it changes their life, the way Shannon & his poetry has mine.
You are beautiful
God damn Shannon, you were such a blessing
Shannon would turn into 51 years old today!
I'll be listening all of his songs today in his memory!
Forever missed, " Never goona know you know but I goona love you anywhow"
People don't know how much I have literally listened to this. It has saved me
Mrs nel hoon thank you for giving these amazing tracks to the world. Much love
I adore this version of Mouthful Of Cavities. Always will. I love the whole singer-from-the-crowd story, but this version seem so much more ... there. Love goes out to Mr. Hoon and Mama Nel. Helped me through a ton of great times and not so great times.
I just had a 21 minutes 25 seconds long heartgasm. While tears sprouted from my soul.
Pablo Casanova awesome!😂
I hear u friend.Peace,man...
You must nut like crazy when you hear change lol
I cried too when I first found this. I cried for months. I discovered it right before my grandpa, my aunt and my cat died. It helped me to feel better and get everything out
@marianadamelio I'm glad to hear that it helped you 🙂
Shannon had a way to get into someone's heart ❤️
I first heard this around 21 (I was born in 93) I lost my best friend to drugs at 23, this was his favorite album of all time . No matter the mood I’m in it puts a smile on my face. RIP Caleb, hope your jammin somewhere with Shannon
his voice, messages and rythms are the most comforting
It’s amazing how such pain can sound so tragically beautiful. Love you forever Shannon.
Like they said in their dvd "Letters from a Porcupine" , "Our music is a mind thing". I truly believe it. All of us stoners, depressents, junkies, freaks etc. We can understand his gut wrenching pain that killed him.That is the basis for using drugs. Broken heart, anxiety, depression. I lived a hard life. Should've been dead by now. Shannon Hoon and Blind Melon helped me to realize I wasn't the only one. I will never forget listen to their greatest hits and realizing, Oh my God, they have better songs or just as good as No Rain. I hope he is at peace now. Because I would know I could be at peace someday.
Amen to that!
Junkhead?
I'm sure you can relate on a deeper level, having shared some of the same challenges. I cannot personally relate, but I feel the energy on such a deep level that makes me just want to hug him and you and anyone who has ever struggled with addiction. Some say he died too soon. He accomplished his mission in a short time based on earth years. He was obviously ready to go. Like he said "When I die, thank God my soul will be released." My hope for you is that you find your peace while you are still here. May the Peace that passes all understanding rule in your heart TODAY.
Yes the raw emotion that comes from broken people always makes them the most talented in the art of music. Layne, Kurt, Jim Morrison, Hendrix, Janis, Bradley.....pain brings magic to music.
fuck yes
Shannon was one of those magical souls that could reveal the true wonderment of the world through poetic lyrics.
A wonderful soul. There aren't words to describe what your voice, your music, your essence makes me feel... You... So pure. Te amo Shannon Hoon.
Only one way to listen to this...
Turn volume to 3/4, close your eyes and take a walk with Shannon! RIP Brother!
You shouldn't walk with your eyes closed
Amen!
You forgot the headphones.
I still listen to this and dance and sing around my house when life gets rough and the depression hits. I love and miss you Mr. Hoon. You dont get anymore REAL AND RAW EMOTION like this! I wish everyone would listen to this cuz they will relate in some way. I will NEVER stop playing this album and listening to Blind Melon. I battle demons too and Shannon and Melon have gotten me through! Peace & Love
It's amazing to me that i can connect with beautiful souls that share in joy of keeping these,(what would otherwise be lost forever)songs alive.
U've got excellent taste👍
I’m with you
I can’t believe I am hearing something from Shannon that I’ve never heard!!
Rest in peace brother. Yehoshua bless you Shannon Hoon. Your music is truly a gift and I thank you.
Rest easy brother.
I love this,his voice is burning a hole to my soul....always have !!!
How can it be that he died 21 years ago tomorrow? It just can't be! It seems like yesterday...I swear being part of this 90's life keeps a strong hold on you....
he would've been 51 in just a few days 💔
The raw talent of a man distressed in mind looking for freedom in thoughts an yet bring happiness to everyone from a mind of chaos an clutter he's gotten me thru a life of trials an tribulations the power of life in a song that brings freedom to the heart an spirit loved this guy a lifetime thanks 🙏
Still burning brightly in my heart after all these years.
Happy Birthday, Shannon!!!!!.....
Oct 21-2023 still listening. Still loving.
what I love about this music is no cover band can duplicate it,Shannons voice is truly unique in amplifying the message of this music..In my opinion one of the best vocalists ever!
Ryan Jones yes sir. Nobody like him
Ryan Jones Seth Avery does a great St Andrew’s Fall cover. ua-cam.com/video/OBiqFwi-yO8/v-deo.html . Check it out.
Agree. His voice is one of the most unique & beautiful voices ever.
I recently re-discovered Blind Melon and after listening to the incredible Shannon Hoon again it has inspired me to start playing again after 18yrs. Lost my dad after a night of playing until 3 am. A family friend found him at 9am that morning. He was terminally ill for about 3 yrs and we played probably 3-4 nights a week. The last year and a half my wife let me stop working and spend as much time with him as possible (I was a remodeling contractor) he passed Tuesday morning Thanksgiving week. Thanksgiving has sucked for the last 18 yrs. Buried him on Friday. So I put my 12 stringer that he gave me under the bed and hadnt played it since. To painful,. So do you know how hard it is to learn to play guitar on a 12 stringer LOL. So had it worked on and now my fingers are RAW but its slowly coming back. If you want to hear my favorite song that my dad played search for "A White Sports Coat" by Marty Robbins. We played it a little faster but when I listen to it 18yrs later I still get choked up.... unreal.
So thank you Shannon you crazy ass mother' RIP brother I hope they moved Elvis' time back and gave you his slot.
I dont play guitar but listen to marty robbins with my dad. May your father rest in peace.
Did you find your dad?
@@1leisure1 Not yet Lee. I hope I don't have to go looking for him for at least 25-30 years.
I hope he is up there playing "King of the road" with Roger Miller along with getting to play with Elvis and with the all incredible talent that is just waiting for the rest of us to show up so we can jump in and play along. I know that he was happy the night he passed away because when I left him that night at 2:15-2:20 am on Tuesday morning, he was sitting at the kitchen table and I said "Damn it's almost 2:30am" so I put the guitars to bed and I walked out to the kitchen and said "I gotta go get some sleep. So as I walked out the door I said, "I love you Dad, ill see you in a few hours" And the last thing he said to me was.
"I love you too babe". So many months before we lost him I was always trying to get people to come jam with us. I have cousins that play and our "Uncle Paul" who was my dads cousin played with my dad since they were teenagers.
I had talked Uncle Paul to come play which was no easy task. Uncle Paul said he was all done playing guitar when his wife Ella passed away. She was his inspiration to play he loved her so much. After my dad couldn't work anymore or drive etc. Well, he was starting to get bad and this is how great my wife is...... she told me to just spend as much time with him as I wanted.
I had finished a couple of really nice jobs and we were good cash wise so I spent every possible hour/every day I could for the last 3 years he was alive. We played guitars at least 5 or sometimes all 7. days of any given week. Sometimes we played and some nights we would just play maybe 4-5 songs in an hour and just sit and talk about some of the most off the wall shit that just popped someones head.
rhythm they would never miss a chord or step down together but both playing different chords. Uncle Paul is playing barre chords and my dad is playing somewhat conventional chords but he is all over he neck. My dad had to play pretty clean on the finger board because I sat across from him and followed him on the neck.. that's how I learned
''ll bet you 2 bucks and my left nut that one of the first things he did after he got settled into heaven was to go out and find Dell Shannon so he could to put his hands around Dells neck. Dell was the drummer for my dads band called the Peacemakers.
So that old tune run that goes,
"my little run away, away, run, run, run, runaway".
You know that song that goes.. runaway... run run run run . Well my dad wrote song with Dell and when Rem Wall who was local legend guitar player that had connections down in Nashville. Well Rem tried and tried to get my dad to go down to Nashville and just check it out for a couple of days and my dad just wouldn't go so guess who jumped on Rem and Dell Shannon was pretty famous.
So I got my dads old old cookbook with all his recipes etc. in it and I was leafing through it and I''ll be damned but what fell out?.....A Dell Shannon 4"X 6" publicity photo that he gave out to people. He mailed one to my dad all those years ago and he wrote on the front
'LOVE DEL
I can still hear my dads last words to me because I hear them everytime I open the case and run the pic down slowly listening to where its out of tune. I almost have my ear back
Peace,
Rich
ced
Keep playing your dad would want you to.
Shannons talent and voice was and always will be something special to cherish and enjoy. Never forgotten.
What an amazing guitarist, singer and poet. Just plain genius and natural born magic. It's the kind of thing one is born with and his is beautiful beyond anything. I can't put into words what a true miracle he was and I believe still is in Heaven. Love to Shannon's mom and the cat who had this stuff and sent it to her. Pure divine magic working out perfectly by the skin of it's teeth!
i've had this for years but it still sounds great. what a talent hoon was.
Tears in my eyes as I listen!!! He is soooooo great! He was really trying to tell us something! GONE TOO SOON!
SHANNON!!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR BEAUTIFUL GIFT OF MUSIC!!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!! 💝💝💝
I didnt expect to listen to the whole album. But i loved every track. That Shannon Hoon was truly a beautiful soul and a talented and natural musician. Thanks for this.
Shannon puts a huge smile on my heart! So love this. Makes me skip and dance when walking around the city! Shannon....you are my generation. Love and miss you!
I do the same!
(prolly look like a fool, but who cares? Im the one smiling
generation X here and proud...today's music is shit !!
I think I am in love with you...
Greatest pure rock n roll voice since Mr. Lennon , and thanks to Nel Hoon , Mamma , for letting us all have this. She gave it to us as a gift as he did as well .
@@somynamesrobbieparker1413 It's an opinion, dude. Relax.
@@somynamesrobbieparker1413 Are we talking literal voice? If so miles better than Lennon....The beatles were the first big thing..doesn't mean they were the best at everything always forever.
she loved her son and knew to share cause we love shannon she knows grand lady
I'm selfishly SO mad that Shannon took this gift from all of us. It was a Lennon/Hendrix level of talent that we all lost at it's pinnacle and almost 20 years later feels like yesterday. Godspeed Shannon wherever you are
The best voice of his generation. I first got to knew that voice from MTV and 'No Rain'. From that moment I was spellbound. I from Sweden and the record was very hard to get in that time -93, I had to order the record from a friend who owed a recordstore. Played 'I Wonder' and 'Change' again and again. And I ordered 'Soup' before it was released. And then, one day, was there a little note in the papers, just a few lines, that a young singer had died in New Orleans. And I lost it totaly, could'nt sleep, eat, drink, just walking the streets up and down for three nights. It was before internet so we did'nt know much about our idols and I could'nt understand how and why he was gone. Later on I found the biography , and nowadays you can find everything on the Net, and thats a comfort. But I still miss him more than any other great musician that passed away. Today he would be about 55 years and would have some ups and downs in his career, maybe even a christmas record ;D. But I'm sure hed would have done some mindblowingly good stuff and I can't stop thinking about that. I still mourn him sometimes.
this is the sweetest, most wholesome and true comment ive ever seen. i feel the same way and i was only born in 1994. i wish he was still here.
shannon you are never dead
I honestly cant stop listening this its so soulful and beautiful, im definitely proud to be a melon head :P
When Shannon passed 24 years ago the world of music was robbed... We all were robbed of the raw emotional connection Shannon created in each and every song that he took part in... Shannon you are missed... Thank you for sharing the tracks on you tube for all to enjoy Mrs. Hoon we all appreciate you... Stay beautiful and kind to one another everyone and take a couple of minutes to reflect on this crazy life we all live... Become a gift to those around you and stay on a positive note... Life will only get better...
This music hits me in the feels! I graduated from HS in 97, just the right time for music if you ask me... Nostalgia makes fools of us all. Were those times better, or just the music?
Class of 97 here also. The times and music were definitely better!!
Favorite voice ever.
+Kelly Srader i want to kick his ass daily for dying so stupidly... this song is golden.
+Angst Tsgna
Blame the fuuucking record label/tour manager
who shouldn't have had a known addict in recovery on tour. This has happened to too many...maybe they shouldn't be pushed out on the road just because its in their contract when they are clearly SICK.
well thats just stupid, personal responsibilty is paramount and even Shannon knew that was his to own.
Brian Nock never heard of enabling ??? the label was enabling for fuuucking profit...they should have cancelled the tour. They obviously dont give 2 shits about their products.
Nope never heard of that ;-). Anyway still believe in personal responsibility. Me you and everybody else.
How have I not found this jewel. This is the moment in time when Shannon was at his best which set the bar to the stars
This puts me into tears of bewildered understanding. If someone you know doesn't believe in magic show them this.
This version of mouthful of cavities is fucking ridiculous, what an incredible voice!
Such an amazing talent! I'll NEVER forget the magical night I first heard Blind Mellon! I was heavily into the greatful dead and was at the music store "yes kids" back in the day was this place us young people would go buy these things called cassette tapes! Anyway I was at the music store when the guy behind the counter said a new band called Blind Mellon just put an album out and you should check it out! Well I gave the man probably the last $10 bucks I had and headed to my buddies house because he had the good acid!! Long story short we both had court the next day he had just been released from prison and I had a bad speeding ticket I had to appear for! Soooo perfect night to drop 5 hits right??? Well after Shannon Hoon singing to me blowing my freaking mind as we danced like wild Indians along the River as the Teddy bears watched us from the trees and the moon...... Goddamn that moon was spinning with faces shooting out from all angles and we laughed and everything was so alive!!! And............ Well those magical nights only come ever so often. We both got through court ok 😆 looking back that was so stupid and crazy!!! I was only 25 then. Not long after that October I hear that lead singer had overdosed and died! Then 2 months later my best friend died at only 28. Same age as Shannon. I look in the mirror and see this old man now. I guess what I'm trying to say is have fuckin as much fun while you can and cherish the memories! Shannon was there with me that night in a small way but I know I'll always remember✌
Found this in 2022. Thank you for the wonderful music Shannon. May you live on forever 🙏 ❤️
Once in a while this gets recommended.. dont get me wrong, i listen to way to much music for my foggy brain to remember all... But def i remember the first feelings hearing Shannon every time i listen to his band or this...its like a loop of feelings that started something like in 96' going on and on and on.. same child smile on my face and unpatience to discover this amazing voice more and more.. damn man.. Songs like this made my whole life better .. life's good !! Enjoy mates!!! 🥳
Amazing. Still sadly missed in 2020.
I love this so much and listen to it on a regular basis. Thank you, Nel! 💓
I'm so glad I found this recording, thanks for posting
One of the best songwriters of his generation, underrated guitar player. These are amazing, the version of St.Andrews is incredible
It’s absolutely GOLD!
Priceless - Thanks so much. RIP Shannon
Shannon Hoon, you are so missed. I hope you can see and feel just how much..Rest In Peace. Thanks for the gifts you left behind..♥️

Isn’t it nice that real Truth seekers can enjoy the finer things like Blind Melon, and not be under all the man made rules that these church goers are put under? You will never know true freedom until you seek and find The Truth! God bless you brother!

Amazing. Such a natural. Love how raw these are. Gems. 🙏🙏🤘🤘🤘🎙🎙🎙🎙🎙🎸🎸🎸🎼🎶🎶
Rest peacefully Mr. Shannon Hoon thank you for the music.
One of the greatest singer songwriters to walk planet earth in my book .
It's so hard to find the goldens; thanks for having this up
Shannon died way before his time😥... Radio stations should play more of this beautiful music he made🙏
I just came across this and listened to it six times in a row.
In the song Weeping Like the Willow there is a part that was faintly in the background of St.Andrew's Fall... Never knew what it said until now....Simply AWESOME
Miss those days. RIP thank u for awesome memories
I just can't stop posting about this . I have been going through depression... Started listening to this EVERY am while in shower and it makes me so happy....you have free'd me Shannon. Love you. Thanks for putting this on UA-cam
I was going thru the same shit about a year after the nico l.p. came out and was freed by it, then I shared some rare blind melon on the net, including two different soup demos that were great, with tickled pink , frosting a cake,and headful of cavs, which I since lost the originals to .......I'm so glad to see something out there, this guy is my favorite lyricist of all time...be well, I'll try too
i weep when i listen to this
I dig what y'all are saying. It's great beautiful stuff indeed. You can find LOTS of Melon rarities on Archive.org btw, once you've exhausted all the released material ;)
Melissa Petras Good for you!!!
I feel all u guys have been there I'm still there God bless u and Shannon
Been listening to them since the start. I miss seeing Shannon and the guys on stage.
This is a TRUE GEM 💎 SHANNON AT HIS BEST!!!
@@michaelpal5807 that’s a fact
These are just the thoughts in my head...
Its nice to see there are a lot of Melon fans still caring for this lost band and singer in Shannon.
I listen to this video several times/day. I didn't know most of these songs and they're all beautiful.
Wow!!! This is just fantastic!!!
True Art stands the test of time. forever beautiful and brilliant
FAN-TAS-THICC !!!
thank you so much for this, everyone who made this possible.
long live Shannon, you gave so much
Thanks for sharing this!
Eternamente gracias Shannon
Blind melon gave me an outlet,and shaped my early teens. Finding this makes Shannon new to me.again I'm so happy right now. I miss Shannon, but Travis is awesome and BM. Remains my favorite band.
Wow this gooood. Love Hoon's voice and amazing talent. One of the best in the 90s in my opinion.
Thank you to the uploader for this. I converted it to MP3 and put it in my library of music 🙂
That song “Everyday” needs to be on iTunes ASAP! Beautiful!
This is awesome ..Thank you Kristina !
