It's a Shame About Ray

VINYL FORMAT. Insound Staff Pick - 2009! After numerous lineup changes and independent releases Boston's Lemonheads signed to Atlantic Records for 1990's Lovey. It was with that record that Evan Dando began to move from Replacements style punk-pop into more gentle and jangly territory, and it's here, on It's A Shame About Ray, that he perfects his vision and launches the Lemonheads into international stardom. It's A Shame About Ray, is one of the hookiest and catchy records of the "alternative" era and holds up now as a jangle-pop classic.
