Mother Love Bone, live from Tommy’s Bar, Deep Ellum, Dallas TX on 20th April 1989

The early ‘90s hosted a new generation in rock n’ roll and Seattle provided the backdrop for a bold new genre. Mother Love Bone’s appearance at Tommy’s Bar in Deep Ellum, Dallas on 20th April 1989 bears the early hallmarks of the new rock prophecy in full throttle! This is a prized performance broadcast by Z Rock-FM that reveals an important chapter in alternative rock and the Seattle uprising that gave way to the likes of million-sellers such as Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Nirvana and Alice In Chains. Sadly, lead vocalist Andrew Wood wouldn’t be around to enjoy the acknowledgements and accolades that Mother Love Bone have received since his untimely death, but we can be grateful for the existence of recordings such as this that offers a rare and precious opportunity to dig into the roots of the Seattle grunge rock story. Professionally re-mastered original broadcast with background liners, rare archival photos and a replica poster.
