Does anyone remember The Lemonheads?

Evan Dando, singer/songwriter/guitarist for The Lemonheads, is definitely a lemonhead. And an unabashed stoner.

Still, he and Julianna Hatfield made a damn good album in 1992 called It’s A Shame About Ray. The record was recently reissued with a bunch of bonus demo tracks that were recorded during the making of the album.

The original album already rocks, but the demos are little gold nuggets from the past. Before Dando smoked so much weed that he lost the ability to write good songs. Then, of course, was the Julianna Hatfield Three…

Download and listen to a catchy track by The Lemonheads below, the album’s eponymous song. Download the whole album via MP3 at Amazon.

    Didn’t they sing that stupid — I’m going to “Disnee Land” song? I seem to remember something where they couldn’t spell it “Disney Land” because of copyright issues. I may be wrong (and I most likely am), but I swear it was the Lemonheads and I had that stupid song on some random compilation tape (that is right, AUDIO CASSETTE).

    i was a big fan. their earlier stuff is also interesting and really shows the band evolving into what they’d eventually become on ’shame about ray’
