The Modern Lovers

2006 reissue of this absolutely mind-blowing classic 1976 album packaged in a miniature LP sleeve from Jonathan Richman and his original line-up of The Modern Lovers which featured David Robinson (later of The Cars) and Jerry Harrison (later of Talking Heads). This is as raw as Richman would get, mixing basic Rock 'N Roll with a distinct Velvet Underground influence (VU's John Cale actually produced much of this release). Features five bonus tracks: 'I Wanna Sleep In Your Arms', 'Dance With Me', 'Someone I Care About', 'Modern World' and a different version of 'Roadrunner'. Sanctuary.
