The Lemonheads It's a Shame About Ray

Lemonheads' seminal 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. 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', a track from the 'Mrs. Robinson/Being Round' EP.Essential Extras - Download only1 Mrs Robinson2 Shakey Ground3 My Drug Buddy (KCRW Session, 1992)4 Knowing Me, Knowing You (Acoustic)5 Confetti (Acoustic)6 Alison's Starting To Happen (Acoustic)7 DivanDemo Recordings - Download only8 It's A Shame About Ray (Demo)9 Rockin' Stroll (Demo)10 My Drug Buddy (Demo)11 Hannah & Gabi (Demo)12 Kitchen (Demo)13 Bit Part (Demo)14 Rudderless (Demo)15 Ceiling Fan In My Spoon (Demo)16 Confetti (Demo
