It contains a cover of the Beach Boys' "Girl Don't Tell Me". Critical reception ''Trouser Press'' wrote: "Sweetly engaging and as freshly cut as a suburban lawn on Sunday afternoon, ''Electric Juices'' is Fuzzy perfection." ''The Washington Post'' called the songs "buoyantly tuneful in the manner of '60s Top-40 fare," writing that "Fuzzy's melodic gifts dwarf those of most of its peers." The ''Orlando Sentinel'' concluded that "the distorted guitars and heavy, post-punk rhythms make for an interesting contrast with the New Wave-y 'Drag', the power-poppy 'Sleeper' and the bouncy 'Girl Don't Tell Me'." The ''Intelligencer Journal'' deemed the album "g ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All-Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as All-Music Guide by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it, he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It is the "modern man's" equivalent of the ''Grove Dictionary of Music'', which Larkin describes in less than flattering terms.''The Times'', ''The Knowledge'', Christmas edition, 22 December 2007- 4 January 2008. It was described by ''The Times'' as "the standard against which all others must be judged".

Fort Apache Studios
Fort Apache Studios is a New England recording studio focusing on alternative rock sessions produced there since 1986. History The studio was initially built by a collective begun in 1985 by musician/producer Joe Harvard and members of a band called Sex Execs: engineers Paul Q. Kolderie, Sean Slade, and Jim Fitting. Its first location was 169 Norfolk Avenue, a warehouse in the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. As Bill Janovitz of Buffalo Tom noted, it was the height of the crack epidemic, and Roxbury was a dangerous place. As a result, Harvard gave the studio its name after the 1981 movie ''Fort Apache, The Bronx'', which was set in a crime-ridden neighborhood. The team took a do-it-yourself approach. Drummer Billy Conway, Fitting's bandmate in Treat Her Right, framed the control room wall. The studio became very active recording Boston-area indie-rock groups in 1986. It soon upgraded its early 8-track Roxbury facilities to 16-track equipment. Fort Apache relo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
