Lemonheads: Evan Dando (vocals, guitar); Juliana Hatfield (bass, background vocals); David Ryan (drums).
Recorded at Cherokee Studios, Los Angeles, California.
This edition of IT'S A SHAME ABOUT RAY contains the extra song "Mrs. Robinson," a cover of the Simon & Garfunkel classic, which was not on the original release.
The band's leader Evan Dando received an immense amount of media coverage between this and their next album, COME ON FEEL THE LEMONHEADS. The press saw another self-destructive rock 'n' roller in the making and hounded him about his drug habit. This album, however, is a delight and has the same feel as a Big Star record, or the rolling melody of the early Byrds, but much more sloppy and loose. Dando is a fine songwriter and the first 12 songs on this record feel like one great track. The unlucky 13th track is Paul Simon's "Mrs Robinson", which you will either love or hate.
