Kingsland, Arkansas is the birthplace of “The Man in Black,” Johnny Cash. It’s there that you’ll find a water tower that features a mural honoring cash…and that mural has been altered.

In death, it’s easy to elevate an entertainer’s talent or importance. But in the case of Chris Cornell, even before his shocking death in 2017, he was already considered one of the greatest voices in rock history.

From Soundgarden to Audioslave to his solo work, his vocals never failed to move a room. He could sing anything. Literally anything. Genre be damned!

Spoiler: You’ll never hear “Ave Maria” the same way ever again.
