    Good lord, what a voice Chris Cornell has - rich, bruised, defiant, fragile and strong, be bends it to his will. On Songbook ... [his voice] carries the album as it stands starkly against his simple guitar backing. [Nov. 19, 2011p. 51]

    Songbook is more than a worthy addition to any Cornell fan's collection; it's a beautiful showcase of his career that any music lover should have.

    That patented caterwaul is in fine form.

    He sounds at peace with his past and comfortable with his present, and that casual assurance makes Songbook his best solo offering to date.
