marshall crenshaw

Marshall Crenshaw made his eponymous debut with this wonderfully catchy mix of power pop and 50’s rock and roll. He got his start playing in bands around his native Detroit and got his break playing John Lennon in the off Broadway production of ’Beatlemania’. ‘Marshall Crenshaw’ was recorded at the Record Plant in New York City with veteran producer Richard Gottehrer. The album evokes the music of Elvis Costello and Buddy Holly, who he actually played in the film ‘La Bamba’. With Crenshaw on guitar and vocals, his brother Robert Crenshaw on drums, and Chris Donato on bass guitar; the entire album is filled with tightly played, shimmering pop gems. ‘Marshall Crenshaw’ went to number fifty on the album chart and sold almost four hundred thousand copies.
