BLIND MELON
Blind Melon
2014 Europe reissue
Back in 1992, my older sister took me to Brandeis University to see the 120 Minutes Tour; a travelling rock circus featuring four bands:
Public Image Ltd., Big Audio Dynamite, Live, and Blind Melon.
The only band that left any impression on me that night was Blind Melon.
I absolutely fell in love with them.
They were such a phenomenal band, and on THAT night, they blew everybody else off the stage. Which is a hard thing to do when you’re sharing a stage with punk legends like John Lydon and Mick Jones.
I was fully obsessed with and immersed in this album for two whole years after seeing that concert, which was my second concert ever.
I hold the memory of that night very near and dear, and every time I think of Shannon, I’m right back there in my head.
Another incredible talent gone too soon.
