Chilton, Alex
Take Me Home & Make Me Like It
Take Me Home And Make Me Like It comprises unrehearsed, first-take recordings by Alex Chilton, recorded in 1975. Notes
by Alex Chilton and producer Jon Tiven; 180 gram vinyl.
"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. We recorded over a few days in the fall of 1975. I was very into a loose, unrehearsed first take
sort of approach to recording music. I learned from producer Jim Dickinson the method of throwing a very impromptu
rendering of a song onto tape. . . . This method gives a fresh, sometimes anarchistic quality to the performances. The
first day of the sessions was approached in this way. The second day went according to the producer's more conservative
method of planning and rehearsal. All in all there is some hot, untamed rock and roll on this disc." --Alex Chilton,
1992.
