123 Sugar - Copper Blue (1992)

The most exhilarating rock album of the nineties came from the guitar and mouth of one of the most lovable heroes of the college rock eighties. Five years after the end of Hüsker Dü and without record label support, Bob Mould formed Sugar and found his melody on their debut album Copper Blue in 1992 - a ten-track treasure buried in plain sight amongst the chaotic Hair to Grunge Hunk transition of power.
