LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

"Teenage Gurls" was the superb second album from the Scruffs, proving that the Memphis pop explosion was not a figment of Alex Chilton's imagination!Though plagued by the same distribution problems as their debut, and all of Big Star's albums, it has lived on in the hearts of collectors to become an acknowledged Powerpop classic! The Scruffs current lineup, still led by the charismatically crazy Stephen Burns, has recently returned from a triumphant tour of Japan to record new material in Glasgow with the usual Scottish pop suspects involved.....perhaps the dream of many Powerpoppers will come true......and The Scruffs will be playing your town soon? This release is a must for all fans of Big Star, The Raspberries, and of course The Scruffs!
