The rest of the story is history: Deal signed, heroin overdose, Andrew's untimely death, sadness, Mookie Blaylock forms, Temple of the Dog, Pearl Jam. And just for the record, Ed is not and never was a member of Temple of the Dog. Just saying...
With the rise of all things Seattle-related in the early 90's, Polygram/Mercury released everything MLB ever officially recorded and saw through in one package. It was Apple, Shine and for the lucky first few, a bonus disc with "Lady Godiva Blues". "Gentle Groove", "Stardog Champion", "This is Shangrala" and the epic "Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns" sound as fresh today as when they were written. This was going to be THAT band. They were that good.
"I ain't gonna let you down..."
