Alex Chilton - Take Me Home and Make Me Like It (2017)

In 1975 Alex Chilton went into the Ardent Recording Studios with producer Jon Tiven and out of some tumultuous recording sessions came a number of loose and unpolished gems which would ultimately become the "Singer Not The Song" EP and "Bach's Bottom" album. "Take Me Home And Make Me Like It" is a raw document of one of the pivotal moments in Alex Chilton's career. It features previously unreleased rehearsals and alternate takes that tell the story of a troubled recording process that nevertheless produced intensely unique music. Notes by Alex Chilton and Jon Tiven. "This is music performed with some of the most callous abandon ever to have been allowed in a recording studio. Many of these tracks have a raw cinema verite atmosphere applied to recorded rock and roll. My own performances seem to be either obnoxious or attempting an insufferable cuteness, but often they achieve a compelling electricity in their spontaneous excitement." Alex Chilton 1992.
