“Spoonman” was released on this day in 1994. The song started as an instrumental for the Singles movie soundtrack, but soon evolved into one of Soundgarden’s biggest hits—and a Grammy winner. In this clip, Chris tells Howard Stern how it came together, and who inspired it: Artis the Spoonman, a real street performer from Seattle who played spoons with incredible rhythm and soul. Artis didn’t just inspire the title—he performed on the track and appeared in the music video too.
