My review of Mother Love Bone Apple
Well I was a fan of Mother Love Bone before this major label release. I had gotten my hands on a copy of there tape Shine. Had seen them live on one occasion. Couldn't wait til the release of this album. Then I heard the news of Andrew Wood's passing. I got this album the day it was released. Was amazed how great it was and saddened this was a Swan Song for the band. The band would call it quits with Stone and Jeff going on to form Pearl Jam. If you haven't heard this grab it. There style is not Pearl Jam more in a Led Zeppelin style with Andrew Wood's Marc Bolan of T Rex type vocal style. Andrew's lyrics here are timeless. The music is very tight and moves smoothly with Andrew's Vocals and lyrics. Man this could have been the biggest band ever IMO. The Stand Out Tracks to me here are Stardog Champion,Holy Roller,Bone China,Stargazer,Capricorn Sister, and Crown Of Thorns. If you haven't heard this. Give it a chance
