Once the album was completed in the spring of 1995, Hoon checked himself into another rehab facility at the insistence of his bandmates, which pushed the release date of the album, titled Soup, to late summer.
The dark and challenging Soup was a true diamond in the rough, but when it was finally released, the album was savagely bashed by fickle critics everywhere, which in turn led to a cool reception by the record-buying public (peaking at number 28 on the Billboard album charts).

 Blind Melon : The Best of Blind Melon - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
The Best of Blind Melon takes six tracks each from the eponymous 1992 debut and its follow-up, Soup, pairing them with highlights from the 1996 rarities comp Nico, some unreleased live material, and the band's run-through of "Three Is a Magic Number" from Schoolhouse Rock!
The gentle Nico outtake "Soul One" should be in the repertoire of every undergrad coffeehouse guitarist in America, and two live cuts dating from 1993 reveal Blind Melon to be a tight live act, and more raucous than you might remember.
It helps you remember Blind Melon as a band, beyond the death of their singer or the resonance of one big single.

 "Classic Masters" helps fans see through the "Rain" - The Verge
Blind Melon again drives home the loud-soft dynamics on the emotionally engaging chants and guitar harmonics of "Toes Across The Floor" and the captivating "Soul One" which stands as one of Hoon's greatest accomplishments as a songwriter.
Hoon may have never received adequate credit as a vocalist, but "Classic Masters" goes to great lengths to showcase a voice that could go from a haunting wail to warbling harmonies to a gravely baritone in the span of a single song.
All downfalls not withstanding, "Classic Masters" finely captures a band who never quite received their due in life, and may well provide the band with a bit of a second coming.

With only a pair of studio albums released during their brief and ultimately tragic career (in addition to a posthumously issued odds-and-ends collection), the appearance of a Blind Melon best of, 2002's Classic Masters, may understandably raise a few eyebrows.
But the bottom line is that the quintet issued some truly great music during their short tenure together, and just about every selection from this 12-track overview is a gem.
