This week we’re discussing every album by Green River. Credited as the first ever grunge band, Green River walked so bands like Nirvana, Melvins, Mudhoney, and Pearl Jam could run. Singer Mark Arm and guitarist Steve Turner went on to form Mudhoney, while bassist Jeff Ament and guitarist Stone Gossard went on to form Pearl Jam with Eddie Vedder. One of the most influential bands in rock music, but the jury is out on how well they hold up.
Closing track: “One More Stitch” from Dry as a Bone (Deluxe Edition) (1987)
