2012 release containing previously unreleased recordings by Memphis band The Barbara's. In the late 2000s, the band was a handful of early 20s music heads colliding in the midtown bar scene and making a racket that captured VOM and Del Shannon in a blender. The band was great, the live shows were insane. In 2011, Goner was excited to find the sessions safe and sound right where producer Jay Reatard had left them, on his digital recorder. Alicja Trout helped the band finish recording and mixing the tracks, and when paired with their own recordings (plus some heavy duty work from Jason Ward at Chicago Mastering) it was clear their legacy held more than just a great (and now out of print) single. There's a Barbara's album after all... and it's a doozy.
