| Video Discription | Coming up… It’s one of the most instantly recognizable songs and iconic music videos of the rock era: No Rain by Blind Melon. It instantly blew up radio and MTV. And though this bright and quirky tune will have you singing along from the start... it was hiding a secret sadness. No Rain is much more bitter than sweet. In its time it became so over-hyped that lead singer Shannon Hoon hated singing it. And its success became one in a series of events that led him down a path of personal destruction. So, is this song just a caricature of Blind Melon, a band who had more to say? Or is it one of the most beloved hits of its time? I’ll let you decide... NEXT on the Professor of Rock.

It’s time for another episode of our series Bottled Lightning. This is a sad one.. in 1990, Blind Melon frontman Shannon Hoon wrote in his journal, "My hometown really never held a future for me, except maybe a prison term or an early funeral. My life has changed so much and now my dreams of singing to the world are very close.” Needing to escape what he considered a stifling small-town existence in Lafayette, Indiana, Shannon boarded a Greyhound bus in March 1990. His destination? California, the land of golden opportunities. Arriving in Los Angeles with guitar in hand, Hoon set about searching for a rock band and a new lease on life. But Shannon wasn’t the first member of Blind Melon to get there. Ahead of him, back in 1988, two childhood friends and musicians from Mississippi: guitarist Rogers Stevens and bassist Brad Smith had already set up camp. They had come to LA for the same reasons. To chase their musical dreams. While in the Sunshine State, they were in and out of several transitory bands. Later they met Hoon through a mutual friend at a party. There Shannon auditioned for the duo, playing an original song called "Change" on his acoustic guitar. Rogers and Brad were sold and immediately brought him aboard. Shannon’s song had the same kind of vibe and the same kind of attitude they wanted for their music. Previously, the pair had met rhythm guitarist Christopher Thorn at a different audition and invited him to join as well. Chris, who originated in Pennsylvania – kept the California transplant streak going. Months later, the foursome called upon Glen Graham, a drummer from the Mississippi club circuit, to round out the band. With Graham in place, the quintet’s first order of business was to record a demo, which once finished caught fire immediately. Almost from the get-go buzz started generate around the band, which they called Blind Melon. Apparently, it was a term Brad’s father used to call his ‘unlikely-to-succeed next-door neighbors.’ “We’d only been together for like a week,” said Shannon. “And the four track fell into someone’s hands and we got a call... |
