Jason & The Scorchers were one of cow punk's greats. Long before the alt-country movement came along, Jason Ringenberg and company were taking country classics and turning up the volume and ramping up the speed. This collection of demos, live performances, and unreleased studio recordings is an excellent alternate retrospective of the group's early days and onward. There's a 1983 demo of Bob Dylan's "Absolutely Sweet Marie," a live version of Hank Williams' "Lost Highway," and an acoustic take on "Long Black Veil." There's also 1985's "Tear It Up," which features guitarist Warner Hodges and legend Link Wray. "Comin' 'Round" is an early take of "Crashin' Down" from Still Standing. Drummer Perry Baggs sings "If Money Talks." Hodges' mother, Blanche, duets on "The Slow Train Never Ends." Rick Richards and the band pummel through "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town." This is an exemplary collection, and alongside The EMI Years it provides a complete look at one of rock 'n' roll's most influential (and often overlooked) groups.
