The second book I read for Seattle grunge music was Everybody Loves Our Town by Marl Yarm. This books gives stories and some quotations by famous Grunge musicians like Kurt Cobain of Nirvana, Layne Staley of Alice in Chains, and Eddie Vedar of Pearl Jam. It gives a lot of information about the formation of Grunge and how people especially in the Grunge business viewed the lifestyle.
The interesting thing about this book instead of a regular styled book this is pretty much a compilation of everyone who was integrated into the grunge scene like band members, producers, journalists, and columns from newspapers like the LA times. This makes it so the book gives very in depth detail om what happened in the era because it is from people who experienced it first hand.
Now I wonder what is grunge music? And books not set up like normal books are great. I always like it when authors do that, it is a cool break from the norm, interested to see how it was done. Its good your book had so much too offer, should make the paper go a little easier!
