Later, in a 2016 interview, Cornell said: "With all that’s been written about Temple of the Dog recently, it’s reminded me of the original meanings of those songs. Stone and Jeff and our drummer, Matt, had been working on a demo for what ended up being Pearl Jam, so we had the idea that we would make an EP or a record, and maybe even do some of Andy’s solo songs.“
