Mother Love Bone

On September 3, 1989, during the Bumbershoot Festival in Seattle, Mother Love Bone delivered a stirring live performance that captured the essence of their sound at a pivotal moment in their career. This was just before the band's debut album, 'Apple,' was officially released in 1990. The live recording showcases their blend of glam rock and grunge, vividly demonstrating why they were a key part of the Seattle music scene. Notably, the band's charismatic frontman, Andrew Wood, infused the performance with an energy that resonated deeply with fans. Tragically, this vibrant performance came only months before Wood's untimely death, which subsequently cast a long shadow over the band's legacy. This show is not just a snapshot of their sound; it's a poignant reminder of what they were on the brink of achieving.
