He did fill in on vocals for Jerry’s band in the beginning and they did everything to get him to become their lead singer but, he wasn’t ready to leave his band. Jerry Cantrell played in Diamond Lie in the beginning and Layne Staley’s band was actually “Alice N’Chainz”. I love that you all appreciate Alice In Chains music and I mean all of their music just not the radio hits. I’ve just recently come across this site and I’ve read everything everyone has written.
Kent R Franklin from FredricktownMiss em!. He also adlibed the screams on the intro to Them Bones, & contributed on a riff in God Am, which he also wrote the lyrics to. It was also his idea to hit a bong before God Am, the only time his studio engineer ever seen him do drugs. He actually wrote the lyrics to 31(~60%) songs for AiC, including all but three songs on Self Titled/Tripod. He also wrote the music & lyrics to Head Creeps. Kenny from TulsaLayne did in fact write the music and lyrics to Angry Chair, & Hate to Feel on Dirt, and played them live up through 93, can confirm on YouTube. Popeyeguy from Franklin,wisconsinSure do miss Layne Staleys unique vocals, never did get a chance to see them live. May he be surrounded by peace, love, and light. But I will also correct anything I read about him, that is BS. I will forever miss and think about, and be incredibly sad that Layne had to leave us. I now have a pacemaker-defibrillator implanted in my chest. I am by no means an expert on death, I’m just sharing my experience. He doesn’t miss Demri anymore, or anyone/anything for that matter. If it’s the same for everyone, he is for sure at peace, with no more pain, no sadness, just silence and complete and total contentment and peace. I had to have CPR, and got shocked with defibrillators, to come back. I have been there with my illness, and literally died 2 times. I choose to believe that his heart just couldn’t work anymore. I am 5’1” and was down to 89 pounds due to an immune-system disease. My heart will always be shattered by his death. I just wanted them for the pictures, but I decided I didn’t want to support what he was so against. I believe once they heard how pissed off he was about it, and that he didn’t want anything to do with it, they stepped out and stopped contributing. Actually Nancy and his sister DID initially participate in sharing info about Layne. I was (WAS) going to buy the 2 books written about him. I won’t get into all that, I’m simply saying, we won’t ever have another Layne, in this lifetime…or any. I’m not saying there is an actual heaven, but there is a condition, rather. 
His voice was akin to the heavens opening up to allowing us mortals to hear the voice of who came to be an angel, himself. He was an artist by true definition! All artist are self-deprecating, through words and/or actions. I’m in deep with trying to get AIC in the RRHOF but mostly Layne for all of the other music he had going on, independently from AIC.
I have a permanent pit in my stomach due to a lot of what went down with Layne’s passing, and to this day. Marc from Pittsburgh,paKelly from Kansas THANK YOU!!! I have been trying to spread everything you have said for a while now.The standard deviation for this track is 12.5. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 85.8/100, a mean average of 86.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.8/100. This track is rated in the top 2% of all tracks on. (*In practice, some tracks can have several thousand ratings) The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation). However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. Rating metrics: Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution.
