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.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTomorrow Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToo Late\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHangin' Around With You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour Very Eyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn My Arms Again\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomebody Has What I Had\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNow And Then\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Don't Miss You 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCruel You 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree Times: See Me\/Say It\/Listen 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Don't Wanna Hear It 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTomorrow Night 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToo Late 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHangin' Around With You 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour Very Eyes 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn My Arms Again 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomebody Has What I Had 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNow And Then 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery Girl 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Don't Miss You 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCruel You 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree Times: See Me\/Say It\/Listen 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Don't Wanna Hear It 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour Imagination 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurned Out Love 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Things You Do 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnly In My Sleep 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKaren 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShe Satisfies 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGirls Of Today 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHopin' She's The One 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen It Hits 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYes Or No 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFound A Girl 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHate To Run 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTime To Make It 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurned Out Love 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Things You Do 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnly In My Sleep 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKaren 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShe Satisfies 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGirls Of Today 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHopin' She's The One 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen It Hits 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYes Or No 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFound A Girl 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHate To Run 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Her Shadow 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCuriosity 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMayday 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToo Soon 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble Talk 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Summer Rain 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnder The Gun 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Tube 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat Love Means 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBound To Be A Reason 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShake It Away 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTested Charms 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Her Shadow (Demo Version 2) 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCuriosity 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMayday 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToo Soon 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble Talk 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Summer Rain 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnder The Gun 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat Love Means 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Tube 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBound To Be A Reason 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShake It Away 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTested Charms 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJet Set (Manor Version) 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEver Again 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake You Away (Demo Version 1) 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee Me (1st Demo) 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJet Set (Demo Version 1) 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Her Shadow (Demo Version 1) 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Voice Inside Me (Demo Version 1) 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake You Away (Demo Version 2) 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKaren (Acoustic Demo) 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJet Set (Demo Version 2) 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Voice Inside Me (Demo Version 2) 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Wanna Give It To You 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToo Late 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHangin' Around With You 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCruel You 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn My Arms Again 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShe Satisfies 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHate To Run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance -
