===Green River: 1984β1987=== [[File:Mark Arm.jpg|thumb|upright|Frontman [[Mark Arm]]]] [[Green River (band)|Green River]] was formed in 1984 when Arm and Turner recruited [[Alex Vincent (drummer)|Alex Vincent]] as drummer, who had previously played with Turner in the short-lived [[Spluii Numa]]. Bassist [[Jeff Ament]] joined the band after arriving in Seattle with his band Deranged Diction. [[Stone Gossard]], another of Turner's former bandmates, was recruited as second guitarist. Green River recorded their debut EP, ''[[Come on Down (EP)|Come on Down]]'', in 1985, and it is considered the first [[grunge]] record because it was released several months before the ''[[Deep Six (album)|Deep Six]]'' album (which featured music by Green River and five other Seattle grunge bands).<ref name=Anderson2007>{{cite book|last=Anderson|first=Kyle|title=Accidental Revolution: The Story of Grunge|publisher=Macmillan|year=2007|pages=24β33|isbn=978-0-312-35819-8|url={{Google books|plainurl=yes|id=N9pHV2h8B7gC}}}}</ref> Turner left the band after its release due to his distaste of the band's [[hard rock]] leanings. He was replaced by another Deranged Diction member, [[Bruce Fairweather]]. After recording another EP (''[[Dry As a Bone]]'') and a full-length album (''[[Rehab Doll]]''), the band disbanded in late 1987. Gossard, Ament, and Fairweather went on to join [[Mother Love Bone]]. Following lead singer [[Andrew Wood (singer)|Andrew Wood]]'s death, Gossard and Ament went on to form [[Pearl Jam]], and Fairweather joined [[Love Battery]].
