Dinosaur Jr.

On April 5, 1986, Dinosaur Jr. performed a live rendition of Jimi Hendrix's 'I Don't Live Today' at Hampshire College in Amherst, MA. This performance came shortly after the release of their seminal album, 'You're Living All Over Me,' which dropped in 1987. At this point in their career, Dinosaur Jr. was solidifying their signature sound, blending punk and classic rock elements that would later influence generations of musicians. Did you know that the band's raw energy during live shows, especially their knack for covering classic tracks, really helped them carve out a unique niche in the indie scene? This performance captures that essence, showcasing not just their musicianship but also their ability to honor rock legends while making their sound distinctly their own.
