Highly recommended.

Compilation album by this powerpop band from Memphis Tennessee, formed in 1974. The band had been discovered by Jim Dickinson, who was the producer of Big Star's 'Third/Sister Lovers' when he heard the band recording their demos.

A little sonic shoebox full of teenage love notes, stuffed to the brim with American power pop treats. Nothing here is processed, nothing synthetic, every background coo and handclap genuine and handmade in Memphis, TN, USA.

The best Scruffs songs hit a verse, chorus, verse, snappy bridge, and perfect hummable guitar solo before selling the chorus all the way home.

Although they had been critically acclaimed, the band had very little success during the 1970s, and eventually they would break up in 1981.
