Temple of the Dog

On November 13, 1990, Temple of the Dog performed a live set at the Off Ramp Cafe in Seattle, coinciding with a pivotal moment in their brief but impactful career. This recording came shortly after the release of their self-titled debut album, which was released on April 16, 1991. The album was a tribute to the late Andrew Wood, lead singer of Mother Love Bone, and featured several musicians who would go on to become prominent figures in the grunge and rock scenes, including Chris Cornell and members of Pearl Jam. The live performance showcased key tracks from the album, including the powerful "Hunger Strike" and "Say Hello 2 Heaven," which are reflective of the band's emotional depth and their tribute to Wood. Notably, this concert took place during a time when the Seattle music scene was gaining national attention, and Temple of the Dog's blend of rock and heartfelt lyrics helped solidify their place in music history.
