Reatards, ‘Teenage Hate/Fuck Elvis 
Here’s the Reatards’ (Goner)

With help from his mentors, the late Memphis punk James Lee Lindsey Jr. recorded several singles, EPs, and debut album Teenage Hate under the name the Reatards, when he was an actual teenager. Howling like an unholy mix of Black Francis and Memphis garage legend Greg Cartwright (Oblivians, Reigning Sound), “Jay” Reatard was a true live-fast-die-young talent, and this CD reissue, which includes two ?cassette EPs, is a fitting tribute.
