A much-needed and well-assembled compilation of the
artist's non-Velvet Crush material, The Ballad of Ric
Menck collects 11 sparkling indie single sides, all of
them rendered with master pop craftsmanship. Perhaps most
notable are the half-dozen cuts Menck recorded with Paul
Chastain and friends under the name the Springfields for
the legendary Sarah Records label, among them beautifully
jangly originals such as "Sunflower" and "Wonder," as
well as covers like the Hollies' "Clown" and Matthew
Sweet's "Are We Gonna Be Alright." As with the pair of
Choo Choo Train tracks leading off the disc, this is all
essential material that has been out of print for far too
long ù a tip of the hat to Summershine for finally making
it available again. [In 2004, Menck's own label, Action
Musik, reissued the album with improved sound, expanded
liner notes, and five bonus tracks, one of which - the
demo for "Scatter Good Friends" - was previously
unreleased.]
Enjoy!
