I'm 51 years old and about nine months ago I was listening to candlebox and I watched an interview where the singer of candlebox was talking about how talented Andrew wood was and the band was about to make it big. Sadly thats when Andrew was called home. Anyway I fell in love and have been listening to them often and telling other people to check them out. One of the best bands i've ever heard. Love all members in Mother Love Bone and Andrew Wood you are missed. R.I.P.
Aren't they awesome ??! Of all the so called grunge music I go back to the mother love bone cd way more than the rest. Soundgarden too. They were all excellent, I love that MLB sounded unique. Crazy how life happens
Definitely feel that mysterious vibe every time I listen to their stuff it always brings me back to the way I felt the 1st time & never fails RIP Landrew & thank you
In 2024 I still hear his voice. So haunting. Yet so full of love, no judgement, his words ring out. The start of an amazing journey that we all embarked upon. RIP Andy.
I fell in love with Andrew Wood and Mother Love Bone 🌟 when I was 16, I'm 44 now and still love them !! Andrew just had such a voice and charisma that can't be found just anywhere. Grunge might not have happened- or been viewed by history the same - had Andrew lived. I honestly think their music would have blown up, maybe not right away but he had Star power. I hope he got to watch it all happen from Heaven ...Rest In Peace Andrew we love you !! 🕊💙🌌☯️🌠
These guys really were the prototype of grunge music - bit of glam, bit of metal, bit of groooove, and plenty of rock 'n' roll swagger. What a tragedy they only got to do one album really. Still, Pearl Jam's music wouldn't exist otherwise, so I guess it was meant to be. RIP Andrew Wood - a natural, beautiful rock star.
They were Love Rock, not the depressing blah grunge crap. If he hadn't died, music would have been worlds different and so much better. Grunge never happens.
@@randalscandal1588I’d say it’s more than likely the scene as we know it happens if MLB continued - remember, there were still the Melvins, Nirvana, Screaming Trees, Alice In Chains, etc. and Andy Wood or former Green River members didn’t have much of a direct or critical impact on their members (besides AiC’s Would?, of course). So the scene/a scene likely still maintains in that alternate timeline, but the extent of it is far more debatable because of MLB’s potential reach. Perhaps there’s even two Seattle scenes simultaneously, one more Glam and the other more Stooges.
This dude always reminds me of my friend Nate.. we both really loved MLB.. Rip both Andy and my friend Nate too lol .. this band gave us hope when we were struggling with our drug addictions
Andy Wood was recognized b4 Alice in Chains but AIC were noticed b4 Nirvana. I don't think it really matters who brought attention to Seattle on the music side of things. I feel they all were talented n deserve to be respected. I'm a AIC fan from the beginning.
How to begin to know & grasp what a beautiful soul this Man truly was? Watch “Malfunkshun the Andy Wood Story”....it’s a must see for anyone even remotely interested in how things REALLY were @ that magical time in Music! He BLAZED the trail for many, he entertained everyone in his circle & in audiences of 2 or 200. Spoken from His Family, Xana, Band Members (past & present) & many others behind the scenes. ALL Love & miss this Powerhouse who tragically left us... his legacy lives on, lessons learned for many & the Music HE made, unforgettable! Andy, ur in that big arena now man & w/Layne, Chris & toooo many others❤️
The real tragedy of Seattle was not the suicide of Kurt Cobain nor was it the over-dose of Layne Staley. The real tragedy of Seattle was that two days before Apple was released across a national audience, Andrew Wood was found dead. Andy, we all love you man. Rest in peace! And I hope that Stone and Jeff live on and keep spreading that Mother Love Bone Joy!
andrew hamsterdad I read this during the end of Malfunkun, The Andrew Wood Story. 10 hours of missing nursing notes doesn't sound right to me. I'm surprised no investigation was performed. What a great loss. Today makes 25 yrs. Crazy..
+ComaAlpha Im a huge Nirvana fan, Kurt and his music were unique and amazing, but yeah I totally agree with you, at least Kurt had time to show his art to the world, Andrew wasn't that lucky. But them both died from drug abuse, and this is what is really sad, they could still be around here if not for this shit.
The Wood Brothers, Andy, Kevin and Brian all kick ass. Brian (singer) and Kevin(guitar)was in Devilhead and The Fire Ants. Andy for Malfunkshun and Mother Love Bone. Such all great artists
The later side of the 80's was a weird time in music, on one side you had the glam metal scene, and 70's bands, English punk, and speed and thrash. Every thing was labeled. But everything was melting into something new that hadn't just found itself yet. I miss the spirit of the 90's
I od on smack i saw andy people just realize when we die we dont we turn to energy he is 100% back on earth just for a different journey. ......thats what he told me if u have a dream u never forget it it was for the other side rip landrew love rock 333
I agree with Melissa there's a lot of talent that came out of Seattle and it's sad that we lost talented young artist by the name of Andrew Woods I think it was his loss of life that helped bring forth more talent Alice in Chains Stone Temple Pilots Soundgarden they all pay tribute to the Great Andrew Woods and with reason. may he rest in peace
Amazingly weird that the bands who were influenced by Wood and MLB sounded nothing like them? Andrew Wood did not look like he was in trouble, as opposed to say Lane Staley, who looked like death even years before he died?
Andy was too good to be allowed to rise to the top of such a sick, evil industry. Unfortunately for him, there was someone close enough to him to have the authority, and willing to throw him away - allow him to be taken. "Kevin's Mom" is Andy's mom, too.
I've always wondered abt this, but his gf Xana says that he was with a Latina girl who was known and she left him to die at their apartment while xana was at work. Idk
honestly seeing them playing live and listening more of their songs is hard for me not to think of the older Guns n roses type of sound but better or more likable to me since there's no Axel roses Cringe presence to it i hope i making sense and may his soul be accompanied by Chris cornell's one somewhere out there in the otherside of life
Kurt, you don't have much of a clue about music do you??? Sounds like you might have been born after 1989. Mother Love Bone were one of the main reasons that Seattle got the attention that it did in the early 90's. This is the missing link between crappy glam rock and grunge. This was part of the start of something VERY BIG!!!
Dave H If you're talking about Crue and Poison......great guitarists but they wrote shitty music. Yes, those glam bands sucked ass. But if you're talking about Bowie.....TAKE IT BACK!
I'll take Green River or The Melvins for $500 please. MLB, to be honest, was the last gasp of "cock-rock", minus the spandex most of the time, and not really indicative of the Northwest sound that came from GR, Mudhoney such. MLB was WAY more commercial.
***** I am pointing out I shared this on a forum with others who also worked hard at spending their time recording / transferring / converting tapes in good quality, then it gets put on this site where millions of lazy jerks who NEVER contribute back. unless it is with troll comments. That is why a lot of us have stopped uploading, as our work winds up here. Enjoy it while you can. Hope it is true that UA-cam is working on making this a pay-per-view site. Most of you guys deserve it.
I first heard or read about this band back in 1990, I had bought a Rolling Stone magazine with Jimmy Page on the cover and a big article about Zeppelin and there was a short article about Mother Love Bone. I don't know why but I started looking for apple and could not find it anywhere. I finally found it in a new mall with a brand new record store. They had one copy. I had recorded it on a cassette for the car with Alice In Chains Facelift on the flip side. I lent it to a friend and he and his wife were freaking on the Love Bone and went out and bought it the very same day, by that time Apple had been reissued with more tunes and Pearl Jam just came out. Everybody hearing Temple had not happened yet. I have not heard anything new that does not suck since 2012 when David Lee Roth rejoined Van Halen and released A Different Kind Of Truth. What happened to Rock?
I don’t call this grunge. And yeah Andy’s death made the Pearl Jam band. But if he stayed alive I think there would have been a different sound for metal. It’s metal to me!!!
Im Very Upload Stupid and I have so many this I would love to share do you mind letting me know what helpped you with any of your uploads? message me or im sure we are friends on facebook. Midori Starr
Wrong...This band was brilliant and one of the biggest rock shames of all time that we didn't get to see it mature into something magical. You sir, have no taste.

Aren't they awesome ??! Of all the so called grunge music I go back to the mother love bone cd way more than the rest. Soundgarden too. They were all excellent, I love that MLB sounded unique. Crazy how life happens
Definitely missed, RIP ROCK GOD
Now check out Malfunkshun song "The Words of Love"
Definitely feel that mysterious vibe every time I listen to their stuff it always brings me back to the way I felt the 1st time & never fails RIP Landrew & thank you
In 2024 I still hear his voice. So haunting. Yet so full of love, no judgement, his words ring out. The start of an amazing journey that we all embarked upon. RIP Andy.
Still listening August 2024 ❤
September 2024 💯

You understand. Awesome. !!!!! That what I always said. There would have been a new metal sound.
Right there with you. I was 12, now 47. Still one of my faves!
Rest in peace Andrew. We won't forget you.
self destructive talent..

These guys defined a new direction in music

Heroin has sadly taken too many young people and has robbed us of their talents.
Somebody must have gave him a hot batch, he looked fine shortly before his quick demise.
Andy Wood was recognized b4 Alice in Chains but AIC were noticed b4 Nirvana. I don't think it really matters who brought attention to Seattle on the music side of things. I feel they all were talented n deserve to be respected. I'm a AIC fan from the beginning.
His smile could light up the sky.
Andy Wood forever! So talented!
Andrew Wood, what a beautifully genuine soul with so much charisma.Such a tragic loss in so many ways.
ROCK IN PEACE ANDREW WOOD -❤🌠🙏
"Stargazer you call the shots" LOVE MLB!!!!
They were like a less dangerous but starchild version of Guns N’ Roses.

They rocked the Cactus Club in SJ and we felt so lucky to see them at a local club -- Thankful for the music and the memories. Gone way too soon...

Awesome!!! I remember when mother love bone hit the music store where I worked. Amazing and I played it all the time.
Andrew seemed like such a sweet guy....so sad he died so young.

I can't believe that this only has 14k views. At least it only has one TD.
Every time there’s new Pearl Jam I come back to MLB . Apple is incredible, R.I.P Andy .
This was done very well. Brought back memories of growing up near Seattle. This album is fantastic.

thanks tiffswonderland, for making this.
Andy Wood forever. Chris, Andy, Layne....there is a hell of jam session over there!!!!!
If I was a man of golden words I would write something more eloquent now but this is so nicely put together.
Stargazer you call the shots and I'll take it allllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tiffany, thank you so much for sharing this. Peace...
Awesome video. Thanks for the upload.

Excellent job
It dawns on me that Andrew had an awful lot of the same vocal characteristics as Robert Plant.
andy's vocals put axl to a crying corner.
You meant Kurt's voice, right?? Nirvana, one of the worst grunge bands along with Sonic youth 💩
@@cartola76 pff! says you
Axl was never a good singer. Not really an accomplishment
Comparing something grunge with Guns is crazy !! I have respect for Aic, Soundgarden and Stp !! up to the L7...

honestly seeing them playing live and listening more of their songs
is hard for me not to think of the older Guns n roses type of sound but better or more likable to me since there's no Axel roses Cringe presence to it
i hope i making sense
and may his soul be accompanied by Chris cornell's one somewhere out there in the otherside of life
Miss u every day of what could've been ❤
Did he just mention Tukwila, WA... South Seattle.... the fuckin man Andrew W. RIP from the future. My core is fused with Seattle music.
Awesome thanks Tiffany. He was a character ❤.

Yes it was!! Real big!!!
its always interesting me how this and Nirvana have pretty close to 0% in common
Nice pinball machines
this is epic

Something will happen for sure, Stoney
I will love Andrew for as long as I live
their just awaiting.... on that dream....
thank you for posting this.
GOOD WORK, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS.
this video would've wieved 18m times if he was alive.
I'll take Green River or The Melvins for $500 please. MLB, to be honest, was the last gasp of "cock-rock", minus the spandex most of the time, and not really indicative of the Northwest sound that came from GR, Mudhoney such. MLB was WAY more commercial.
@CaptainKirkDiggler. Kinda commercial like Pearl Jam
thank You
Love this.
I have this on VHS Tape.....
Bought it Decades ago as many of us did.
Thankyou for sharing.
Rock!
What's the slow song that begins at 24:34?
Edit: I found out. It's called Man of Golden Words.
9:35 Amazing album!
Pure talent wasted on drugs, sad. Killer band.
and here is another video I ripped from VHS and uploaded in 2009 but not for UA-cam.

literally sounds exactly like Guns N Roses
I Moved back to Nova Scotia.I'm still here.I live with Muh Mama Mary.

Hey there Aussie!!! I see you
HOW'S ANDREW DOING THESES DAYS. Where He Belongings
He's getting head from your mom
Dick.
Made an impact, will be remembered, unlike you and your pointless comment m8
god this band is dreadful.
Wrong...This band was brilliant and one of the biggest rock shames of all time that we didn't get to see it mature into something magical. You sir, have no taste.
Said the dork who likes Warrant, Steelheart...
..."this band"..
just sounds so ignorant.
So do you asswipe.
You are deaf then.......
