NRBQ Scraps 1982 Red Rooster 3055 STERLING Remaster EX/EX Ho-Jo Workin Originally recorded in 1971 and released on Kama Sutra in 1972, Scraps is the album where NRBQ locked in as a band. It's the first record with guitarist Al Anderson — who would stay with the group for over twenty years — and the only NRBQ album with a true quintet lineup. Terry Adams (piano, clavinet, harmonica), Joey Spampinato (bass, vocals), Tom Staley (drums), and Frank Gadler (vocals) round out the lineup. The band's genre-jumping instincts are all over this record — blues, rock and roll, country, and a strain of pure American eccentricity that nobody else was doing. Standout tracks include "Howard Johnson's Got His Ho-Jo Workin'," "Magnet," "Get A Grip," and "Boys in the City." Produced and engineered by Eddie Kramer. Recorded at Columbia Studios, New York, and in Mount Vernon, NY. Remixed at Electric Lady Studios, NYC. This is the 1982 US pressing on Red Rooster Records (3055) — NRBQ's own label, distributed by Rounder Records. Yellow label with red rooster graphic, correct for this issue. Remastered in 1982 at Sterling Sound by Greg Calbi, a highly respected mastering engineer with credits spanning decades of American rock, soul, and roots music. His baseball symbol stamp is present in the deadwax on both sides alongside the STERLING stamp.
