THE MUFFS - NEW IMPROVED KIM SHATTUCK DEMOS [VINYL]

RSD 2022:

This is the first project we’ve put together since you went away and I can’t say it’s been easy. The task of what, if any, extra stuff to include with the reissue of 'Really, Really Happy' was daunting but you, still ever present and in your own indomitable way, somehow ended up making it easy.

You were always great at making demos, but at this point they were accomplished works of their own that were truly special. You made me this disc right before we recorded what was to become 'RRH.' You’d written lots of songs for this album, it was taking shape, we were ready to record & you replaced the many scattered discs with one or two songs on them that I had with this, a burn that you titled 'New Improved Trashy Muffs Demos For Ronnie.'

I always told you throughout our career that one day I wanted to compile an album of your demos like Pete Townshend did with 'Scoop.' And while this isn’t exactly what I envisioned I think the world will be just as astounded and proud you for this work as me and Roy always were.
