Speckly Poster
Every once in a while, an album comes along that fully captures the imagination and proves that there actually are new things under the sun. Originally issued in 1989 on LP only, Shrimp Boat?s Speckly was one such album, prompting CMJ to gushingly label it "the debut of the year." Fifteen years later, the utterly distinctive mesh of bluegrass, folk, jazz and rock found on Speckly remains surprising, addictive and timeless.In 2004, AUM Fidelity released the critically acclaimed box set Something Grand, which collected together four CDs of previously unreleased material. Speckly does NOT appear on Something Grand. This is the first time any of this material has ever been issued on CD.
Shrimp Boat was the legendary Chicago band made up of Sam Prekop, Eric Claridge (who both went on to form The Sea and Cake), Ian Schneller (Falstaff, Specimen Products), and secret weapon David Kroll. Speckly was the first album to be completed at the then-brand new Idful Music, and was recorded by Brad Wood (who later produced Liz Phair?s Exile in Guyville) and Brian Deck (who went on to work with Red Red Meat, Califone, Modest Mouse and Ugly Casanova). Driven by soul and poetry, Shrimp Boat?s material celebrates the imagination, the hallucinations and the dream.
