For those interested in this site’s namesake band, American Music Club has a new compilation/rarities disc out. Ten bucks. The demos and b-sides are great for superfans like me, but I’d quibble with some of the song selections if this is meant as an introduction to the band. You’re probably better off just buying Mercury or Everclear instead.
Compilation trivia: “I Always Knew” (here in demo form) later resurfaced as the tremendous “Cape Canaveral” on San Francisco. “LA Is My Woman” (another demo) later became that album’s “In The Shadow Of The Valley.”
