Corey Taylor thanks Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young for inspiring him with an Amazon Originals cover of Carry On.
Given the diversity of genres displayed across last year's debut solo album CMFT, it's no surprise to hear Corey Taylor channeling his inner folk rock on a new Amazon Original cover.
The Slipknot frontman has just shared a great rendition of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young’s Carry On, explaining that, "Growing up, the harmonies of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young always captivated me. What they could do felt more like superpowers than music. Showing them appreciation is just my way of thanking them for inspiring me."
