Marshall Crenshaw "From The Hellhole" 2xLP

Sunburst Splash Vinyl. 

Acclaimed singer/songwriter/record-maker Marshall Crenshaw presents From The Hellhole, a 14-track collection of handpicked, remixed, and remastered songs featuring tracks from a series of EPs along with several rare deep cuts. Primarily recorded in his home studio, affectionately dubbed “The Hellhole,” the collection spans the last two decades.

Produced by Crenshaw, From The Hellhole resurrects eleven of the fourteen tracks originally issued on a series of limited-edition Record Store Day vinyl EPs released between 2012 and 2016, all of which have been out of print since 2017. With rights now reverted back to Crenshaw, these recordings have been curated for what he describes as “legacy curation”—a personal mission to properly archive and reissue work that continues to resonate. The album’s three additional tracks include a striking demo of 1991’s “Walkin’ Around,” a previously unreleased version of “I Just Want to Celebrate” (by Motown’s Rare Earth), and “Couldn’t I Just Tell You,” originally recorded for a 2022 Todd Rundgren tribute project.
