Blood Visions

Jay Reatard was the kingpin of Memphis garage rock, and his best and most powerful full-length work—the record that made him a standalone rock star—was his first solo album, Blood Visions. When it came time to turn in Blood Visions, Jay considered going back to his old routine—forming a new band and releasing those songs under that band’s name. The label convinced him that it should be a solo album. A classic by any measure, this will be a punk/garage rock Mt. Rushmore album from now until the the last turntable spins its final revolution.

We love you Jay, RIP.
