  • Title: The Shocking E.P.
  • Year: 1989

  • Keeper: No

Here’s another record that’s really “for fans only.” I only have it because I was running a record store with my brother when it came out. I’m a big fan of Jane’s Addiction and even I don’t want to keep The Shocking E.P. As you can see from the cover it’s a “limited edition” and I’ll tell you why. The only thing “shocking” is Perry Farrell’s larger than life face on the cover. There’s another pic on the back of the whole band, you know, for fans. The only non-album cut is “Had a Dad – Live!” and it’s pretty forgettable. “Mountain Song” and certainly “Jane Says” are rock classics, but all of us fans already have those tracks. This is an import from Englandia.

    I believe I spent some coins at that record store. I didn’t buy any Jane’s Addiction but I think I picked up some Red Lorry Yellow Lorry. Of course my favorite thing was the Fan Chair.
