Product Overview
Lemonheads' seminal 1992 album is back on vinyl, featuring Evan Dando classics such as "My Drug Buddy," "Rudderless" and "It's a Shame About Ray," lovingly reissued by Fire Records.
The album is described by music journalist and author Everett True as "A 30-minute insight into what it's like to live hard and fast and loose and happy with like-minded buddies, fuelled by a shared love for similar bands and drugs and booze and freedom."
It's a Shame About Ray had a considerable impact back in those heady, carefree days of '92. The record perfectly captures Dando's ability to effortlessly encapsulate teenage longing and lust over the course of a two-minute pop song.
The reissue includes a download card with a slew of extra material, including the "My Drug Buddy" KCRW session track from 1992 featuring Juliana Hatfield, B-sides from singles "It's a Shame About Ray," and "Confetti," and a track from the Mrs. Robinson / Being Round EP.
