Product Description Marshall Crenshaw by Marshal CrenshawWhen sold by .com, this product will be manufactured on demand using CD-R recordable media. .com's standard return policy will apply. .co.uk One of the best releases of the '80s (by one of the most consistent album artists in rock since that time), Marshall Crenshaw is a jukebox of catchy riffs, hooky choruses, and beatific harmonies from Detroit-reared singer-guitarist Crenshaw and his trio. This is a classic driving album, beach album, doing-housework album--you could pay your taxes to it and still bop along joyously. From the jangly opener "There She Goes Again" to the sparkling pop of "Someday Someway" and "Mary Anne" to the lyrically compelling rockers like "Cynical Girl" and "The Usual Thing," Crenshaw and producer Richard Gottehrer (Go-Go's, Blondie) conjure up a timeless pop sheen that highlights the band's neo-retro hooks with exotica-like glockenspiel. The production adds the odd touch of magic to this classic, from a purposeful young songwriter-singer-guitarist busting out of the gate at the top of his game. --Don Harrison

Fantastic
This reminds me of an American girlfriend I had at University in 1984/85. She loved it and she played it endlessly. I loved it, too and I bought it on CD about 10 years ago. I play it a lot: it reminds me still of being young and reckless and happy and lusty and lazy and hot-headed and optimistic and drunk and impetuous and youthful and, er, broke. It'll do the same for you unless that's not what you want. Buy it, and hum these snortin' tunes all day long. Oh, and hi Patience, wherever you are. Happy days, eh?..
