Mike McCready Plugin ?

I love McCready for his Mad Season and Temple of the Dog work more than Pearl Jam - though Ten is definitely in my top 20 albums of all time.

My mom listened to Pearl Jam

Crap, you're gonna make me go relisten to that Temple of the Dog album and see if missed something when I took it back to The Record Exchange two days after I bought it to trade in for something else...

There was exactly 1 good song on Temple of the Dog, IMO.

I like Pushin' Forward Back

I'm 3/4 through and this has been the one stand out. Great minds.

Wooden Jesus anyone?

Wooden Jesus anyone?

I remember the title but not the song? I'm definitely Soundgarden HEAVY when it comes to this era. I like some stuff on Ten and a few songs from VS. and Vitology but that is stretching it. So consequently; I'm putting on Louder than Love and Badmotorfinger if I want jams from this particular locale. Digging into old records that didn't sink their claws into me at the release is sometimes tough. Though you can be missing out on some good stuff?

Wooden Jesus anyone?

That entire Album is legendary. Full stop. It's when Cornell's voice and writing took a quantum leap.

Tragedy can do that to a person.

It also marks the genesis of what would become Pearl Jam after the passing of Andrew Wood and
the end of Mother Love Bone.

Definitely worth a re-listen - I did the same with Mother Love Bone, but still didn't trip my tigger for whatever reason.

Wow how did I not know that TOTD was pre Pearl Jam?!?

I had a friend who had all the Seattle stuff from the jump. I liked a LOT of it but I also still clung on to that thrash after it's heyday stuff a bit too hard. Embracing some turds, so to speak 90s death metal helped right that ship

Wooden Jesus anyone?

Didn't really feel it much.

Your Savior was okay.

I was a big fan of Ten when it came out, and hung with a friend around New Years last year that put it on and it held up after having not heard it in at least fifteen years.

But if I'm gonna go back and revisit that era/area, I'm gonna pull up Jesus Christ Pose every day and twice on Sunday over any of this stuff.

Because it didn't get aaaaaaany play until after PJ broke.

Dear lord; THIS

My one friend that "moved to the big city" to pursue music in 91 (aka join a cover band because we had somehow not thought of that) was in a successful band at the time. Their singer was into bad things, extracurricularly speaking. His funeral song was "Black" and I'm here to tell you; that song was definitely the right song for the occasion.

I was soooooooooo all over the place then. I remember spending Saturday nights jumping between Lonesome Pine Special (bluegrass), Austin City Limits, The Nashville Network and Headbanger's Ball. The perfect night for me would have had Sam Bush in some incarnation on Lonesome Pine Special, Joe Ely w/ David Grissom on Austin City Limits, Marty Stuart on TNN and Slayer on Headbanger's Ball.

One of my favorite things of growing up in PEAK metal era but also in PEAK alt-rock era was being able to appreciate a HUGE swath of musical styles. Even if my posting doesn't seem like I do

Good lord, I had a fight with someone recently who argued there were zero redeeming qualities to Limp Bizkit. He also tried to sell me a $225 pedal for $295. He is dead to me.
