2020 Grammy Award Winner:
• Best Recording Package: Chris Cornell
2019 Grammy Award Winner:

The slipcase holds 4 CD-sized mini jackets and is wrapped by a custom die-cut o-card that showcases a Seattle tree-line on the front and other various cities Chris lived in throughout his life on the back.
The collection is centered around an unreleased track "When Bad Does Good" performed, recorded and mixed by Chris himself, which was found in Chris' personal audio archive. The collection also includes ten unreleased live performances with Yusuf/Cat Stevens, as well as his daughter Toni Cornell.
Three live selections from Sweden in 2006 “Wide Awake,” “All Night Thing” and Led Zeppelin’s “Thank You” are from the very first show Chris performed by himself with an acoustic guitar in front of an audience.
"This deeply personal self-titled Deluxe Edition box set follows the arc of an ongoing creative evolution sadly cut short, serving as a fitting testament to yet another sensitive crooner gone too soon." - Mike Mettler, The Absolute Sound, March 2019
