Into the Groovy #72 - "Dreaming, I Am"

Tweet

Today's Into the Groovy (#72) takes us to Malone, New York, birthplace of Bob Mould. Bob Mould was the guitarist/vocalist (sharing vocal duties with drummer Grant Hart) for the highly influential, legendary punk band Husker Du (and later, Sugar.) Mould embarked on a solo career in 1989 (prior to forming Sugar,) and has released 13 solo albums. (Fun Fact from Wikipedia: Mould is an avid professional wrestling fan and worked briefly as a scriptwriter for the WCW.) "Dreaming, I Am" is from his solo debut Workbook. It was not released as a single, yet as far as I'm concerned, it should have been. It's my favorite tune from that album. With Workbook, Mould stepped away from his punk roots, especially on "Dreaming, I Am," which is about as radio-friendly as it can be. And that's not a bad thing.
