TRJK - Greatest Hits

Recorded from 1995 to 1998.

Rising from the ashes of the Raving Lunatics like a triumphant Phoenix was That Retarded Jimmy Kid or TRJK for short. The three Lunatics (Jason, Jay and Kyle) were joined by Dave in the summer of 1995 to form the core of TRJK. Throughout the remainder of their high school years they would record largely improvised garage punk. Improvisation was chosen because who wants to practice stuff to remember it in the future anyway? Instrumentation on the TRJK sessions was more traditional rock 'n' roll: Guitar, Bass, Drums, Casio, Trombone, Recorder, etc. are all present in the following recordings. The core four of TRJK would be joined through the years by many various friends and family members. They were dubbed the TRJK All Stars. Some of the All Stars featured on this album include Joe, Jeremy, Richard, Jeremiah, Heath and Dale. TRJK and the All-Stars would record straight to cassette tape in many different locales around Montgomery County, MO (Jay's Shed, Jay's House, Dave's House, Dave's Porch and Heath's Basement) and one legendary session in Memphis, TN at Jason's Apartment. These songs are the only artifacts that survived to become digitized, the fate of the original cassettes were lost to the ravages of time. Some of the highlights include the Rap/Rock fusion of Kill the White Man, the garage rock of Pizza and Oranges, the loud/soft bass/drums workout of Demolition Derby, the covers of Ice Ice Baby and The Joker, the "practiced" Emily that was played at least three times, the acoustic Cannibal Corpse homage Hammer Smashed Face Girl and the topical and humorous Hey OJ. Only the great rock gods would know if they could have been something if they had tried a little bit harder, but let's face it, they probably had more fun this way.
