01:19 - Your decision (First try) 03:44 - Your decision 16:52 - The one you know (First try) 17:13 - The one you know 28:36 - Voices Yes... I love Layne too
Layne is irreplaceable. Everyone knows that. But to hate on Will just to hate on Will is ignorant. Helluva musician and a good fit to carry AIC on. I bet Layne is saying stfu already and enjoy.
Dude I got chills when Jerry fucked up Your decision. Cause I instantly thought of Layne during unplugged when he fucked up Sludge Factory. Then Jerry brought up the unplugged show! How trippy. And this song is about Layne. What an incredible moment jeez
bob smith for god's sake dude, and what did u expect? He's 52. But more relevant than that, this is an informal performance, not a grammy awards pop concert, where if a singer out of tune, people get mad and this becomes a scandal in headlines. Instead, they performed with all the fun of the world to the point where Jerry's setbacks became part of the show. So try to demonstrate a little of things notion.
It's incredible how Jerry an Duvall harmonize vocals, as well as how Jerry and Layne did in the old days. The vocals of AiC are as incredible as the instrumentation of every song
Omar Sierralta Jerry once said in an interview that that was always the goal, to make the vocals as big a part of the music as any instrument. Vocals done right can do what no instrument can do. CHAINS been killing tight, dark harmony for almost 30 yrs!
Even though they have had a couplelot great songs on each album they have put out (post Layne), I don't believe that many people would agree with you on that one including me. Jerry hits it but William could never even get close to the level where Layne was. I don't have anything against William personally:, it's just that he could be a karaoke singer.
@@invaliduserid5807 I've never seen Duvall sing out of tune or missing notes or smt like that while Layne did it a million times, be it because of drug abuse or whatever but it did happen to Layne a lot. I myself prefer Layne's voice and all but Duvall is way more than a karaoke singer, he's maybe not to be compared to Layne cuz he was one of the greatest of all time but Duvall is a helluva singer, dude...
Johnny Carson I know...Layne was one of a kind. Precious soul. Sang passionately of personal pain. I don't mind William DuVall, but he's no Layne Staley. Layne put AiC on the charts.
Scott Daunhauer Will isn't supposed to be another Layne. Jerry got him because he was a fan of Will's music and he had chemistry with Will. Kudos to Jerry for continuing the band and to Will. It takes a lot of courage to soak up all that undeserved criticism and hate. For that I respect Jerry and Will tremendously.
@@coaltrain No, seriously. I mean... Cantrell is a damn idiot. He hasn't fired Duvall yet. You're obviously 100 times more knowledgeable and professional than Cantrell himself because he doesn't know how bad Duvall is, and you do.
@@coaltrain Youre hating on the guy because he's different and he's not Layne. I miss Layne as much as anyone does. But Jerry didn't want an attempted clone out there. He chose a friend. Someone with the disposition that he was looking for in a band mate. And look, they're still together making music
@Jerry Cantrell I would be more surprised if you walked up to me at a bar and sat down next to me over a supposed version of you reaching out w a typical fake profile, honey.
I challenge any duo in rock to sound this good with 2 acoustic guitars. this is stellar work by 2 fantastic musicians in their prime doing what they love. Rock on CHAINS
God bless these guys. Always down to Earth, immensely talented and good humored. Not sure I've ever looked up to a band or anticipated each album as much as I have over 25 years with these guys.
You can tell jerry truly loved layne. He was and will forever be one of the greatest singers. He had so much range, and just sounded like a pure angel 👼🏻 rest easy I hope your rocking out in the after life 🤘🏻
I have loved Jerry Cantrell's voice since the first time I heard it in 1990. It'll never get boring for me. He can mess up all night long...as far as I'm concerned. Just means "you get to hear more" :)
I'd love a second acoustic album. Mostly featuring stuff from the Duvall albums naturally, but there are still suitable songs from the Staley albums that weren't used the first time around that could fill it out.
When I saw this curiously I remembered that classic episode that happened to Layne on Mtv Unplugged! and Jerry mentioning it, fucking brutal... touched me! Miss you Layne
Hey Jerry my 94 yr old grandmother still watches The Lawrence Welk Show. Every Saturday night she just loves it. Claps her hands and it really moves her at that age. That proves music is always great no matter your age. I saw you guys at the Ryman a couple years back. And open for VH in 91. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing! Yuri Flawless harmonies, par for the course with Jerry Cantrell & Co. I was fortunate enough to see AIC during the "Tripod" tour. So THRILLED they continue on with William. Such a great fit, may the entire band's talent continue with blessing us with new music for many years. Cheers!
Sludge Factory is my favorite song of any and all music and any time. period! The live versions make it absolutely amazing! So thanks Jerry for referencing it! 💋🤘🏽💋
Chris Rolls whatever his looks... he's aged gracefully rather than get surgery like most rock stars.... as long as that immense talent for crafting awesome songs and that voice doesn't fade - i'm good. he'll always be a god to me
He's had a beard in like 92 or 93 or something. Obviously not like this but even that beard made him look a tad bit older. But I agree it does age him a lot but he looks badass.
I saw them live for the first time July 21st in Dallas. I love this band and was blown away by William DuVall live. He has a great voice and it fits the band perfectly!
Love you Jerry! Amazing music. Will and you hold it. Great voices, and playing, sense of humor, knowing your just regular guy's, with Godblessed talent. Thanks for the great tunes guy's! Keep on keeping on!!!🎸🎸🎸👊
I'm pretty sure they would let me just hang out. Have a beer. I mean, they don't have to acknowledge me. I could just hang there...with my beer. It'd be awesome.
That 2nd effort on The One You Know was killer. Sounds so badass acoustic. You get a better feel I think for the caliber of musicians that Jerry & Will are. Rock on ALICE
Makes me so happy to see Jerry mess up. If a professional touring musician with a resume like Jerry Cantrell's can still take the piss, there's hope for the rest of us.
I will always miss Layne, when I don't know what to put on, Jar of Flies is my goto...But this was really good, I am glad that he carried on, and I hope that inspires Mike Shinoda, even though we all miss Chester...
Here's something new for you to listen to when you're missing Layne and don't know what to put on. ;) Check out Brendan Maier. He sings for the new band Chout. He also has an AIC tribute band called Facelift. Prior to he fronted a band called Skorned. Brendan sounds JUST like Layne!
Damn, I have a new appreciation for The One You Know. Didn't realize how difficult a vocal song that is. Jerry, couldn't have pulled that off at the Unplugged show, his confidence in his singing has grown substantially since then.

Best vocalist ever
Jonatha Silva
YES Love LAYNE ALWAYS!!
Layne is irreplaceable. Everyone knows that. But to hate on Will just to hate on Will is ignorant. Helluva musician and a good fit to carry AIC on. I bet Layne is saying stfu already and enjoy.
Thanks for skipping the talking
Jonatha Silva thx bud!
Thank you Layne for encouraging Jerry to sing more...........
It's probably the worst way to encourage your friend to sing more(
He didn’t tho? He sang in a band before hey 👋
@@Faks.09 guys he didnt mean layne's death, he meant layne only agreed to being in aic if jerry sings with him
Thanks layne
Boggy depot rocked
Dude I got chills when Jerry fucked up Your decision. Cause I instantly thought of Layne during unplugged when he fucked up Sludge Factory. Then Jerry brought up the unplugged show! How trippy. And this song is about Layne. What an incredible moment jeez
Jerry is still with a stunning singing voice.
Not really.
bob smith if you consider his age, yep.
Did you actually hear him at 17:05? or 17:30? Even I could sing better than that.
Igor Fonseca I'm extremely impressed...his vocals seemed to have become more powerful than in his earlier years...he's sounds better than ever
bob smith for god's sake dude, and what did u expect? He's 52.

Its ok Jerry "it just means you get to hear more that's all."
Layne was watching and laughing with them...RIP
Johnny Carson I know...Layne was one of a kind. Precious soul. Sang passionately of personal pain. I don't mind William DuVall, but he's no Layne Staley. Layne put AiC on the charts.

haha that's when Staley fucked up on Unplugged.
We're so blessed to still have you around. Keep rocking, Jerry.
We are definitely blessed that Jerry, Sean, and Mike Inez are still around doing this! Profound gratitude!!!

Glad to see that Jerry grew his hair out again.
man i know it but still the scars remain...
They really need to do another acoustic ep!
Jonesy Lee I totally agree.
Jonesy Lee I
Yes. Just yes.
Agree!!
I keep thinking the same thing
Jerry it´s such a great master song writer and still true to himself after all these years, he´s amazing
megacharlie is* :P
One of the best songwriters ever
it's so heartwarming how he mentions Layne
Best band of the 90s and still kicks ass to this day.
I could sit on a couch with a blanket and glass of wine, coffee and listen to these dudes play all night like this. Awesome.
@Jerry Cantrell 😘✌🏻
@Jerry Cantrell That is a prime scam question. Just sayin.
@Jerry Cantrell I would be more surprised if you walked up to me at a bar and sat down next to me over a supposed version of you reaching out w a typical fake profile, honey.
Hell yes
I can't stop watching this video...!!!
Such great talent.
Thanks so much for uploading it!
Just what they Needed!!!
thank you Jerry for your existence...you made a big ass part of the soundtack of my life :)
"The soundtrack of my life." Thank you, it's perfect.
It kinda melted my heart to hear Jerry reminisce about layne. That plus this song being about what it's about was fucking beautiful.
That solo was flawless just like his transition into singing right after it.... Jerry Cantrell is so underrated
THANK GOD Alice didn't stop and DuVALL is Fantastic!!!
I challenge any duo in rock to sound this good with 2 acoustic guitars. this is stellar work by 2 fantastic musicians in their prime doing what they love. Rock on CHAINS
Not only to sound good but to create good songs to sound good to as well!
Go look at Myles Kennedy and Slash at a sound session I cant remember the name of they rocked hard as hell a bunch of songs
William never leaves the house without his scarf. It could be July and 100 degrees...but ya gotta make that fashion statement....
neither do I. Studios and control rooms are fucking cold.
XD
It's because, He's always cool!!
God bless these guys. Always down to Earth, immensely talented and good humored. Not sure I've ever looked up to a band or anticipated each album as much as I have over 25 years with these guys.
First time I see Jerry forget a song in 30 years, not bad.
ikr! First time I've seen Jerry mess up.
OMG HE'S HUMAN! 🙃
@@MrTechselect Watch him in the "Making of Black Gives Way to Blue" videos. :D
THANK YOU JERRY.👏 You Are One of, if Not The BEST Song Writers in Musical History.
arv4572 who do you really like? You have a certain top 5? Would like to hear it
AMEN!! AMAZING SONGWRITER!!
No question about it, one of the best songwriters ever
Absolutely agree
The song is that good I'm happy to hear it twice..
It's nice to see guys of their caliber screw up and laugh about it. A.I.C. has always been my favorite grunge band.
Them screwing up, just makes it more real.
I totally agree their are my favorite "grunge" band too.
So heavy and in deep.
Cheers!
Voices!!!.... everyday first in the playlist so I can wake up properly.
M I've tried to like 'Voices' before, but never liked it that much until to night. Awesome performance!!
You can tell jerry truly loved layne. He was and will forever be one of the greatest singers. He had so much range, and just sounded like a pure angel 👼🏻 rest easy I hope your rocking out in the after life 🤘🏻
I have loved Jerry Cantrell's voice since the first time I heard it in 1990. It'll never get boring for me. He can mess up all night long...as far as I'm concerned. Just means "you get to hear more" :)
DuVall and Cantrell certainly work well together!
Man, Voices is perfect for two voices and two guitars. Beautiful.
Pode crer meu chapa, pode crer!!!!!!!!
Always loved Alice in chains back in 1990 and now
Degradation trip is one of my favorite pieces of music ever written
Voices is such a brilliant song! Absolute perfection!
Perfect Harmonies!
Love this band! especially this formation!
Noob alert.
I'd love a second acoustic album. Mostly featuring stuff from the Duvall albums naturally, but there are still suitable songs from the Staley albums that weren't used the first time around that could fill it out.
Steven Hanley yeah acoustic version of Sunshine, Sea of Sorrow or It Aint Like That would be interesting.
They could make anything played acoustic sound amazing.
Phantom Limb, Hung on a Hook
I Can't Remember would be pretty cool acoustic
When I saw this curiously I remembered that classic episode that happened to Layne on Mtv Unplugged! and Jerry mentioning it, fucking brutal... touched me! Miss you Layne
"I can't believe we have AIC in the Sound Lounge, sponsored by Coors Light." I can't believe it either, such refreshing rocky mountain taste!
This is just awesome! Thank you Jerry for staying alive and keeping AIC going...
Hey Jerry my 94 yr old grandmother still watches The Lawrence Welk Show. Every Saturday night she just loves it. Claps her hands and it really moves her at that age. That proves music is always great no matter your age. I saw you guys at the Ryman a couple years back. And open for VH in 91. Thank you.
Brilliant performance !! Phenomenal !!!!
Jerry's laugh💙
Kylmä Talvi so funny!!!
Jerry is the master!!! period...amazing
Jerry is truly the RIFF Master!!!
Thank you for sharing! Yuri Flawless harmonies, par for the course with Jerry Cantrell & Co. I was fortunate enough to see AIC during the "Tripod" tour. So THRILLED they continue on with William. Such a great fit, may the entire band's talent continue with blessing us with new music for many years. Cheers!
Just jamming with a couple of acoustic guitars. Nice, laid back and relaxed. Love it.
Perfect Harmony on Voices...some of the best you could ever hear
The One You Know is better than I could've ever imagined with two guys, two voices and two guitars. Spectacular!
Jerry's laugh is just the absolute best thing to hear. I love these performances. So good!
OMFG. I LOVE these guys SO much!!! AND, you know Jerry loves the assistance with another guitarist!
Jerry's laugh is as legendary as his music!
Just great musicians. Glad for still having AIC. And William matches perfect. Thanks for that great concert
Sludge Factory is my favorite song of any and all music and any time. period! The live versions make it absolutely amazing! So thanks Jerry for referencing it! 💋🤘🏽💋
Jerry's laugh is cool. Love you Jerry! See you this summer in Madrid!!
@Jerry Cantrell Come on, you aren't the real Jerry. 😂😂😂😂.
Will "Your Decision" EVER _not_ make me weep?!? 💔
what a great performance - could literally listen to this all day
I just ran into this. Work afternoons got home around midnight and scroll you tube looking for kick ass music. This is a masterpiece
Kyuss - Space Cadet
Forever AiC!
Com toda certeza bommmmm!!!!!!!
@@marcohenrique5858 sempre!!
Great songs! Great performance!!! Loved it!
What a gift to have a friendship like this, for both. And for mr. Cantrell, he hit the jackpot at least twice in his life. Fantastic little concert
This is awesome! I wish they'd do more acoustic sets, they definitly have the catalogue for it.
Another acoustic EP would be nice.
Agreed
Jerry is looking like the Dude from the Big Lebowski
Bruno Brait or Willie Nelson. The beard needs to go so we can see the Jerry we know.
Laura Malizia the beard ages him a lot. i think he also lost weight. there's recent pictures of him without the beard and he looks great.
Bruno Brait I think his hairline is receding a bit too. Jerry might be bald in 10 years, folks.
Chris Rolls whatever his looks... he's aged gracefully rather than get surgery like most rock stars.... as long as that immense talent for crafting awesome songs and that voice doesn't fade - i'm good. he'll always be a god to me
He's had a beard in like 92 or 93 or something. Obviously not like this but even that beard made him look a tad bit older. But I agree it does age him a lot but he looks badass.
We lost nirvana and soundgarden
But at least alice in chains and pearl jam(💛) are still here
Don't foget Mother Love Bone and Candlebox!
I saw them live for the first time July 21st in Dallas. I love this band and was blown away by William DuVall live. He has a great voice and it fits the band perfectly!
The Unplugged concert was legendary
Love you Jerry! Amazing music. Will and you hold it. Great voices, and playing, sense of humor, knowing your just regular guy's, with Godblessed talent. Thanks for the great tunes guy's! Keep on keeping on!!!🎸🎸🎸👊
King Jerry.
William is a great guitar player
Of course he is in aic
Layne was an amazing singer but his skills on guitar was Very limited
William doesn't get the credit he deserves.
farley melo Yes He Is. I love his style He has a CooL Grove goin' on 😎
farley melo yeah he could play it like in Angry chair and a few other songs and maybe mad season but he's no Jerry or even Will on guitar
I admire your works guys so much. So good musicians. Cheers from Uruguay! Come to South America please.
I'm pretty sure they would let me just hang out. Have a beer. I mean, they don't have to acknowledge me. I could just hang there...with my beer. It'd be awesome.
i think they would
I think this band is straight kick ass, then,and.now!
Thank you for continuing w DuVall
🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍 I Just found this yesterday! My mind is absolutely blown away. You guys are ❤⭐
Goes to show you all acoustic sets show the talent of the band. Jerry and Will show how much this band has grown since Layne's death😚👍👏
So powerfull and so deep..love that song. #brazil
OMG I laughed out loud, that was hysterical. Jerry is a riot.
That 2nd effort on The One You Know was killer. Sounds so badass acoustic. You get a better feel I think for the caliber of musicians that Jerry & Will are. Rock on ALICE
Rock On 🔥
Beautifully done!
Love these guys. I had to play my acuistic with them.
@3:05 LOL - this is great!! Even the master can make a mistake.....I still love Jerry though :)
Richard Skipper amen bro 🤘
Richard Skipper - Absolutely!! I couldn't agree more :D
Camo Cutie cutie is right!!
It just means you get to hear more
I didn’t see where the mistake was? He went into the next part of the song that he should of?
Love the acoustic versions here. Great set & nice little interview.
Well done guys 👍 we love you Jerry
OMG! Just perfect! Wish I was there!!!
Beautiful.
Makes me so happy to see Jerry mess up. If a professional touring musician with a resume like Jerry Cantrell's can still take the piss, there's hope for the rest of us.

Donna if we want Layne, we'll listen to Layne. Not some cheap imposter. Why are u here if you don't like new CHAINS? Go listen to Bieber
They are doing so well as a band.
They should have won the Grammy this year
Layne is a LEGEND 🙏
Jerry has an amazing voice. Now we really get to hear it properly and Duvall compliments it perfectly
Thank you very much
É sempre um prazer,ouvir Alice in chains. Que continuaram com maestria! Parabéns!
Your decision and voices are amongst their finest work... would have loved to hear private hell or breath on a window squeezed in the session.
Melhor dupla sertaneja do mundo!
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Kkkkkkkkkkk real
Damn, I have a new appreciation for The One You Know. Didn't realize how difficult a vocal song that is. Jerry, couldn't have pulled that off at the Unplugged show, his confidence in his singing has grown substantially since then.
"The One You Know" is so much richer in this remarkable acoustic version. I feel I discovered a new song.
Love live acoustic music
Jerry has always been true to himself, and his goal to be a rock musician
AIC .. one of my fave bands .. Jerry is the master! and his voice is Magic!
“You guys just get to hear more, that’s all!”
Great professionalism 👌
Wow! Absolutely incredible!
