...albums in the ’80’s, “Dinosaur,” “You’re Living All Over Me,” and “Bug.”Unfortunately, the honeymoon ended quickly. J Mascis was a sarcastic wit, often criticizing the goofy Barlow. Tensions over J’s draconian rule of songwriting, led Lou and J to stop speaking. Lou started the group Sebadoh, and was only informed of his removal from Dino Jr. by a friend, after which he promptly barged into...

Thanks to Hugh, along with the main reporter, Sandy Smith, and Managing Editor Henry Grunwald, TIME did a sterling job covering Watergate. It was the only publication (according to Woodward and Bernstein's book, All the President's Men) that could keep up with Washington Post on the story.
