Chris Cornell Announces New Solo Album 'Songbook'

Soundgarden's Chris Cornell has announced plans to release an acoustic album.

The LP - "Songbook" - features tracks from his band Soundgarden and former groups Audioslave and Temple Of The Dog.

The release will also feature covers by Led Zeppelin including "Thank You" and John Lennon's classic hit "Imagine".

The album is set for release in the UK on November 21.

The full tracklisting is as follows:

01. As Hope And Promise Fade
02. Scar On The Sky
03. Call Me A Dog
04. Ground Zero
05. Can't Change Me
06. I Am The Highway
07. Thank You
08. Cleaning My Gun
09. Wide Awake
10. Fell On Black Days
11. All Night Thing
12. Doesn't Remind Me
13. Like A Stone
14. Black Hole Sun
15. Imagine
16. The Keeper

Cornell recently revealed that he couldn't read or write music and he regretted not persisting with piano lessons at an early age.

But he said the fact he can't read or write music hasn't hindered him in any way to becoming a successful singer and songwriter, and he can still explain his ideas to people.

Thanks for the report to NME.com.
