For their first new material of the 21st century, the Smithereens have just released Meet The Smithereens! , a song-for-song replica of Meet The Beatles!, that January 1964 Capitol Records U.S. debut by England's Phenomenal Pop Combo. It's worth a listen (at least one listen. Stream it here when you've got 23 minutes to spare).
Not the Beatles but an incredible simulation. For further authenticity, the Smithereens should have persuaded Capitol (their former label) to press a duophonic LP version on cheap vinyl.
This should be a lot of fun live though (two nights at the Red Devil Lounge in Feb, yay!)
