The Best Of Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers (The Beserkley Years) (LP)

[ Rhino Records / CD ]

Release Date: Tuesday 15 September 1987

After the first Modern Lovers album, Jonathan Richman's records were enjoyable but fairly spotty. Thankfully, The Beserkley Years collects the best moments from his '70s records, when his cutesiness was endearing, not irritating. With "Roadrunner," "Pablo Picasso," "Here Come the Martian Martians," "Important in Your Life," "Ice Cream Man," and "Dodge Veg-o-matic" forming its core, this collection is a definitive portrait of his goofy, catchy minimalist pop and rock.
