MATTHEW SWEET
Into Your Drug
1997 U.S. 10” PROMO Picture Disc

If I had to make a list of famous people I’ve met in my life that were the NICEST, Matthew Sweet may be at the very top of that list.
Which is why it’s so heartbreaking for me to see him struggling in the way he is now.

I met him in ‘95 during a WBCN (long defunct) River Rave in Mansfield, Ma.

He played the 2nd stage that day, SLAYED, then sat at a ‘meet n greet’ table for HOURS.
He met EVERYBODY, signed EVERYTHING, and couldn’t have been cooler or kinder.
He watched several of the bands that followed him with ALL of us, simply as a fan of live music.
He was THE BEST.

And his MUSIC has always been awesome.
THIS is a cool little 10” promo intended to help stir up interest in Blue Sky On Mars, and side B has a cool little batch of home demos.

I hope his stroke recovery continues positively.
The world needs dudes like him.
❤️❤️❤️
