JONATHAN RICHMAN & THE MODERN LOVERS - MODERN LOVERS LIVE - INDIE EXCLUSIVE - YELLOW COLOR - VINYL LP
While the U.S. might not have caught on to the magic of Jonathan Richman, the U.K. certainly did. Recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon, āLiveā features Jonathan and the Modern Lovers performing classics from their first two releases to an enthusiastic crowd. (The eight-minute version of āIce Cream Manā should inform that!)
The set includes the recent Top 5 single āEgyptian Reggae,ā as well as tracks from the Modern Loversā previously releases and new tracks.
Captured on tape by Beserkley founder Matthew King Kauffman and Kenny Laguna (whose rock pedigree runs from Buddah Records through Joan Jettās biggest hits), āLiveā is a true, time and place document of the magic that is Jonathan Richman. The performer who The Farrelly Brothers chose to include in their classic 1998 film Thereās Something About Mary, rather than simple licensing his music.
A pivotal release in Richmanās catalog, āLiveā spotlights how captivating a performer he was, and continues to be. His original releases return on CD and LP, with a unique colored yellow vinyl variant available for independent retail His true, Beserkley catalog is available once again. The way Jonathan intended.
