Dollar Bill by Screaming Trees - Someone I met last week mentioned that they were a huge Screaming Trees fan. I completely forgot the context of how we got onto the topic, but it piqued my interest. Personally I liked the band, but I do not think I ever came across someone that described themselves as being a huge fan. But giving their albums a spin recently makes me realize just how good they were.
In the grunge hysteria of the early 90’s, they got swept up into the popular currents of the day. They got lumped into the whole Seattle sound thing, but they were so much more than that. They had a major breakthrough with the song Nearly Lost You off of Sweet Oblivion in 1992, but the song I most dug was Dollar Bill with its chilled out acoustic opening before building up into a big finish. Seems like the right song at the right time this morning.
