The cover art on Chris Cornell&#39;s  second solo album suggests a folk record from the early &#39;60s  (and the title suggests a Kansas cover lurking about  somewhere). But the music inside is strictly crunchy,  dare-we-say-grungy rock straight out of the &#39;90s that Cornell  helped shape with Soundgarden. &quot;Ghosts&quot; sports a nostalgically  Seattle-ish minor-chord riff and appropriately soaring chorus;  &quot;No Such Thing&quot; out-Velvet Revolvers Scott Weiland; and  meaty-sounding ballads &quot;Disappearing Act&quot; and &quot;Silence&quot; end the  record in unusually strong fashion. Elsewhere, the  headline-grabbing cover of &quot;Billie Jean&quot; is well intentioned  but still a little silly, although it boasts a crazy, Eddie Van  Halen-sounding solo. The best thing here is &quot;You Know My Name&quot;  from last fall&#39;s &quot;Casino Royale,&quot;: which is some of Cornell&#39;s  most uncomplicated and accessible music to date.
