This Grunge Alternative-Rock band was formed in Seattle, Washington USA,
in 1988 by vocalist+pianist Andrew Wood, guitarist Stone Gossard, second
guitarist Bruce Fairweather, bass player Jeff Ament and drummer Greg Gilmore.
The quintet released their debut EP, "Shine" and after completing
their first national tour, they returned to the studio to record their
1990 full-length debut, "Apple".
On March 19, 1990, after three days in a coma, Andrew Wood was removed
from life support and passed away; he died of a heroin overdose coupled
with a cerebral hemorrhage just before the release of Mother Love Bone's
debut album.
Wood's death was a tragedy that broke the group's career.
After recording the Temple Of The
Dog tribute-album in Wood's memory, Gossard and Ament went on to form
the highly successful group Pearl Jam.
