Mother Love Bone

Mother Love Bone was a grunge band formed in Seattle, Washington in 1988. The band was active from 1988 to 1990. Mother Love Bone was founded by ex-Green River Jeff Ament, Bruce Fairweather and Stone Gossard and former vocalist Andrew Wood Malfunkshun drummer and former Ten Minute Warning and Skin Yard Greg Gilmore. Initially, the group was formed in 1987 from the cover band Lords of the Wasteland which featured Wood, Gossard, Ament and drummer Regan Hagar Malfunkshun. In early 1988, the band had added Fairweather, replaced Hagar with drummer Greg Gilmore and the group changed its name to Mother Love Bone.

The band leader was Andrew Wood and his compositions helped to catapult the group to the top of the burgeoning music scene in late 1980 and early 90's in Seattle. Wood died a few days before the release of the band's debut album, Apple, thus ending the hopes of success of the group. The album was finally released a few months later.
