Adrian from Seattle, WaIve been to bumpershoot three times, and Artis has been there every time.stainless for tonal changes.That is why he is the spoonman.Jordan & Kuzma.do some research.idiots. Ed from Chicago, IlI have played with Artis in Portland and Seattle.since the 70's.He is the Spoonman, not because of drug use but because he took playing spoons to a much higher level.( changing keys, antique spoons vs.Ed from Chicago, Ilmy apologies to Kuzma.Willie from Scottsdale, AzPop/country singer Jessica Lambert stole the riff from this song for her hit "Baggage Claim.".Sincerely, Artis April 2013 PS: I didn't mention the streets from Venice beach to Covent Garden, from Young Street to Bali. Thank You Soundgarden for the stellar bump.
Check my website for a more concise list. When I was asked in 1992 if I'd be interested in performing on the record I had already performed twice and recorded with Frank Zappa, performed on Late Night to rave response and called the MVP by David Letterman, performed on David Sanborn's "Night Music", performed on television and at festivals in Japan, Australia, Singapore, England, Germany, Canada galore.
It's been about 20 years and the damn thing is still in rotation - not only as an oldie either. I couldn't be more honoured that Chris, Jeff, Ben, Matt, Kim, Susan and all the many peops involved respected me and my playing to produce this song about me. Artis from Port Townsend, WaThanx Y'all, like it or not, believe it or not, I'm Artis - The Spoonman.The whole production on this recording is top quality. It's still played on alternative rock stations in my region. The song was still on college radio when I was an undergrad in the late Nineties & into early 2000s. Elmer H from Westville, OkLove Soundgarden! What a fantastic song & background history of Spoonman.Barry from Gagetown NbMe and a guy at work listening to and singing along with the radio both wondered what this is about and.Heroin is brown and the blood drawn into the needle to be sure it's in the vein is of course red. Our muse, inspiration and eventual destruction. Whatever you can draw up out of a spoon and put into your veins. Rob from Philly Baby!This song is about 2 things."Well, all my friends are Indians (All my friends are brown and red)" Mauianne from WoodstockTo Rob from Philly Baby! Wrong Baby.J Howard from EarthCurly from 3 stooges was a hellava spoonman back in the day, look it up.When it came time to record Superunknown, Cornell made a polished version with Soundgarden, this time as "Spoonman." Ament is credited on the album for coming up with the title.Ĭornell had yet to meet Artis when he wrote the song. This original version of the song was recorded on a 4-track tape to emulate how Poncier would have done it. The 5-song recording was pressed to about 5000 CDs which were used to promote the film.
When Soundgarden lead singer Chris Cornell, who also appears in the film, saw the tape, he recorded actual songs with those titles just for fun. A prop in the film is Poncier's solo tape Ament contrived the song titles, one of which was "Spoon Man." (At the time, Cornell was in the group Temple Of The Dog (" Hunger Strike") with Ament and Stone Gossard, who went on to form Pearl Jam.)

Along with Eddie Vedder, Layne Staley and various other grunge forebears, he was in the 1992 movie Singles, which stars Matt Dillon as a musician named Cliff Poncier. Pearl Jam bass player Jeff Ament came up with the title.
