Dinosaur Jr.

In October 1988, Dinosaur Jr. was riding high on the waves of their third album, "Bug," which showcased their signature blend of punk and alternative rock. Released just a few months earlier, in June, "Bug" features memorable tracks like "Freak Scene" and lays down the band's characteristic feedback-laden guitar riffs and heartfelt lyrics. This live recording, where they cover Guns N’ Roses’ iconic "Sweet Child O' Mine," reflects not only their eclectic taste but also their willingness to experiment with their sound during this thrilling period of their career. Interestingly, this performance hints at the band's key influences and their capacity to bridge genres, hinting at their vibrant presence in the emerging alternative rock scene of the late '80s.
