RoXy’s Rock Rewind

THE 1980’S HAD THE FILM  MAKING GENIUS OF JOHN HUGHES AND IN THE 90’S GENERATION X HAD THE FILM STYLINGS OF A MUSIC LOVER…CAMERON CROW…HE ACTUALLY RELEASED HIS FIRST FILM IN 89, SAY ANYTHING…FEATURING A SICK SOUNDTRACK! ON THIS DATE IN 1992, CAMERON CROW UPPED THE ANTE WITH A GRUNGY ROM COM THAT THIS GEN X’ER COULD 100 PERCENT RELATE TO! SET IN SEATTLE WASHINGTON WITH A QUIRKY CAST OF CHARACTERS THAT SEEMED TO MIRROR MY LIFE AT THE TIME…SINGLES, AND IT INTRODUCED THE COUNTRY TO THE GRUNGE SCENE AND TO THE FICTIONAL BAND, CITIZEN DICK, FRONTED BY A CHARACTER NAMED CLIFF PONCIER, PLAYED BY MATT DILLON. THE REST OF THE BAND IN THE MOVIE WAS LEGIT…EDDIE VEDDER, JEFF AMENT AND STONE GOSSARD…WHO AT THE TIME OF FILMING WERE IN A BAND CALLED MOOKIE BLAYLOCK BUT BY THE TIME THE FILM WAS RELEASED, WE ALL KNEW THEM AS PEARL JAM! IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN SINGLES…THEN GET ON IT…AND IF YOU HAVE…WATCH IT AGAIN! CAMERON CROW ONCE AGAIN NAILED THE IMPORTANTENCE OF MUSIC IN OUR WORLDS! AND BONUS, BOTH SOUNDGARDEN AND ALICE IN CHAINS APPEAR IN THE MOVIE…LIKE LITTLE GRUNGY EASTER EGGS! TODAY’S ROXY’S ROCK REWIND IS A PEARL JAM SONG THAT WAS RECORDED DURING THE PJ TEN RECORDING SESSIONS BUT FIRST APPEARED ON THE SINGLE’S SOUNDTRACK…A DEEP CUT AND SO RAW…IT’S STATE OF LOVE AND TRUST…ON 105.7 THE X IN THE 5 O’CLOCK FREAK OUT SPONSORED BY SIREN TATTOO STUDIOS
