Four CD box. Having created a grassroots buzz with their homemade proto-power pop classic Black Vinyl Shoes, Illinois band Shoes duly attracted major label interest, and they signed to Elektra in early 1979. Over the next three years they released a triptych of classic pop albums - Present Tense, Tongue Twister, and Boomerang - and a clutch of Wurlitzer-worthy seven-inch nuggets that should have catapulted them to fame, fortune and all manner of related excess. Sadly, however, they never quite made the leap from critics' darlings to Top Thirty success, and the band were obliged to settle for enduring cult status as power pop avatars. But while rock-star level fame and fortune never quite came their way, Shoes do have the considerable consolation of knowing that their body of work has stood the test of time far better than many of their more commercially successful contemporaries. This anthology of the band's recordings for Elektra, fleshed out with a swathe of pre-album demos, lost songs, alternative versions and live tracks dating from the same period, is a veritable smorgasbord of perfect pop from a time when Shoes were genuine contenders for rock's glittering prizes. Housed in a stylish clamshell box, Elektrafied contains a 32 page booklet that features rare photos and a new 10,000 essay on the band's adventures during their sojourn with Elektra.

"Elektrafied - The Elektra Years 1979-1982 (4CDs)" is an essential box set for fans of power pop and classic rock, chronicling the influential years of Shoes during their tenure with Elektra Records. This comprehensive collection features remastered versions of three seminal albums??Present Tense,? ?Tongue Twister,? and ?Boomerang??alongside a wealth of bonus tracks, including rare demos, B-sides, and previously unreleased material. Renowned for their melodic hooks, crisp harmonies, and jangly guitars, Shoes carved out a unique niche in late '70s and early '80s American music. Their breakthrough album "Present Tense" remains a touchstone in the genre, earning critical acclaim for its sophisticated songwriting and production. Cherry Red Records?a respected UK label known for high-quality reissues across genres?has meticulously curated this release to celebrate one of power pop?s most enduring acts.
