Scott Weiland: Songs in the Key of Life (Classic Rock)

The former Stone Temple Pilots/Velvet Revolver vocalist, now fronting Scott Weiland & The Wildabouts, talks us through some of the key songs from his storied career.
STONE TEMPLE PILOTS – Plush"This song kinda wrote itself: Robert [DeLeo, STP bassist] came in to the studio with this guitar riff and set of chords and the melody just came right out. I had working lyrics that I used initially and then finished off once we had a demo recorded. When the song was released we were actually on tour supporting Megadeth, and by the time Plush became a hit there were more people coming to see us than Megadeth, which rather changed the whole vibe of the tour: at the start we were playing to heavy metal fans who didn’t know what to make of us, but by the end we had our own crowd."

The title of this made me think Scott had done a Stevie Wonder cover album. Cool article though
When STP had a cookout after filming the video for the Core single "Plush," Weiland made jerk chicken that was "spectacular," Dean raves.
