A down-and-dirty chronicle of the birth and
evolution of the Seattle grunge scene—from backyard skateboard ramps and
underground hardcore clubs to worldwide phenomenon—as told by one of
its founding fathers and lead guitarist of legendary alternative rock
band, Mudhoney.
In the late 80s and early 90s, Steve Turner and his friends—Seattle
skate punks, hardcore kids, and assorted misfits—started forming bands
in each other’s basements and accidentally created a unique sound that
spread far beyond their once-sleepy city. Mud Ride offers an inside look
at the tight-knit grunge scene, the musical influences and experiments
that shaped the grunge sound, and the story of Turner's bands, Green
River and Mudhoney, which went from underground flophouse shows to
selling out stadiums with Nirvana and Pearl Jam. Including stories about
the key moments, musicians, and albums from grunge's beginnings to
its come-down from the highs of global success and stardom, this is the
first account of the musical phenomenon that took over the world from
someone who was there for it all.
Written by Steve Turner, lead guitarist of Mudhoney, a foundational
grunge band that inspired musical icons from Kurt Cobain to Sonic
Youth, Mud Ride features a foreword by Pearl Jam's Stone Gossard and
never-before-seen photographs and grunge memorabilia throughout. Take a
seat and ride through the messy and muddy grunge scene that grew from
the basements of the Northwest and went on to circle the globe.
MUST HAVE FOR FANS: For cult fans of Mudhoney and all things Seattle
grunge, this is the perfect book to add to your collection. Turner
helped put Sub Pop Records on the map, a label that launched bands like
Soundgarden and more. Mudhoney was also one of the first American grunge
bands to tour Europe and the UK, laying the groundwork for the
worldwide explosion of grunge. Learn more about the ins and outs of the
birth of grunge and immerse yourself in '80s and '90s Seattle.
A GREAT GIFT FOR MUSIC LOVERS: For the aspiring musician or anyone
wanting to learn more about music history, this is an illuminating look
into grunge and Seattle bands that have gone on to become world-famous.
AN ESSENTIAL ROCK HISTORY BOOK: An amazing gift for readers of Legs
McNeil and Gillian McCain's Please Kill Me, John Doe and Tom
DeSavia's Under the Big Black Sun, and Michael Azerrad's Our Band Could
Be Your Life. Anyone wanting to learn more about the history of grunge
will delight in this great tell-all read.

guitarist Steve Turner of Mudhoney and writer Adem Tepedelem. Pre-order today, or find it in local bookstores on June 13th, 2023.
@Mudhoney_ and @pearljam will forever be joined at the hip because of the shared history going back to the Green River days. But before even that, Steve Turner (@stevesbadideas) and Stone Gossard were high school friends. So it made sense, since they've known each other for 40+ years that Stone would write the Foreword to MUD RIDE. . #steveturner #mudride #grunge #stonegossard #pearljam #mudhoney #subpop #northwestschoolofthearts #greenriver
13 repeats of the word 'grunge'. Is that now an accepted classification by 'grunge' musicians? Just curious. Sure it's a great read.
I’m sure they don’t care anymore. We are all older, does anyone really care?
I’ll say this for sure… Little Dogs isn’t grunge. It’s garbage.
Lol. Won't listen to it. I don't like the word grunge. F me anyway! Grunge is on the bottom of my boots and between my teeth. also a type of music I enjoy. Fun anyway. Who cares. I'll read it when my library gets a copy. I think that's what all the kids are doing these days
