Remember 1991?
The Soviet Union officially dissolved, and Operation Desert Storm marked a significant military campaign against Iraq. The creation of the first webpage launched the Internet to the public. The Silence of the Lambs emerged as a major cultural and critical hit. The brutal police beating of motorist Rodney King was caught on video. Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls won their first NBA championship.
And through it all, there was the unforgettable music that defined the moment and became the soundtrack to our lives.
Nirvana released Smells Like Teen Spirit, shifting mainstream rock to grunge; other essential grunge releases included Soundgarden's Badmotorfinger and Pearl Jam's Ten. A Tribe Called Quest's jazzy The Low End Theory debunked almost all of hip-hop's negative stereotypes. Mariah Carey's breakthrough album ignited her rise to pop superstardom, and Garth Brooks's Ropin' the Wind became the first country album to debut at No. 1.
In On Record Vol. 3: 1991--the third title in his award-winning series--acclaimed music journalist G. Brown transports readers back to one of the most vibrant years in music history. Through vivid storytelling and striking imagery, Brown shares his decades of exclusive behind-the-scenes interviews and an archive of nearly 15,000 rare editorial photographs. Through his incisive writing and historical perspective, On Record Vol. 3: 1991 captures the energy, innovation and cultural shifts that defined the era.
Explore On Record Vol. 3: 1991 for a comprehensive record of musical legacies:
- Massive rock releases by Guns N' Roses (Use Your Illusion I & II), the Red Hot Chili Peppers (Blood Sugar Sex Magik) and U2 (Achtung Baby)
