Come on Feel – 30th Anniversary

Description

Expanded 30th anniversary re-issue of The Lemonheads classic 1993 album. The breakthrough record that took American alt rock global and catapulted Evan Dando into the hearts of a generation. With a wealth of unreleased demos, alternative versions and rarities – including covers of Victoria Williams, Buddy Holly and The Flying Burrito Brothers plus the Cole Porter standard Miss Otis Regrets.

In the 90s Evans Lemonheads produced hit after a hit, a string of super cool singles: Big Gay Heart, Into Your Arms, Its About Time, and The Great Big NO. Pure genius filling the radio waves and taking the stage… Some 30 years on; Evan is still knocking that song writing thing out of the park and Come On Feel The Lemonheads sounds as fresh and perky as it ever did. Amid the hits on the original record are stencils and outlines for yet more magical music and now this deluxe edition adds a second disc of demos and acoustic versions, plus a host of one-offs from sessions and compilations that add further colour to the myth and how it was created.

Theres the cover of Victoria Williams Frying Pan from her Sweet Relief album, which is joined by an eclectic set of flipsides and out-takes, like their version of Little Black Egg by The Nightcrawlers, Evans homage to Gram Parsons on the winsome Streets Of Baltimore and Buddy Hollys melancholy Learning The Game. Evan knows a good song when he hears it, as Come On Feel The Lemonheads certainly proved.

Come On Feel was home to some of his best, sharpest writing fabulous sunny powerpop and beautiful ballads The Guardian
