Medium Rare is The Mighty Mighty Bosstones emptying their pockets, a 2007 grab bag of B-sides, lost session tracks and fresh songs from Boston's loudest ska-punk crew.
It was the band's first release since going on hiatus in 2003, and it doubles as a tour through their history. Alongside three new songs recorded in 2007, it digs up rarities from the sessions for Question the Answers, Let's Face It, Pay Attention and A Jackknife to a Swan, all written by Dicky Barrett and Joe Gittleman.
"Don't Worry Desmond Dekker", one of the new tracks, tips its hat to the Jamaican ska pioneer with bouncing horns and Barrett's unmistakable gravel. "Chocolate Pudding" dates back to 1994 and the band's rowdier early days, while the previously unreleased "Katie" and "Favorite Records" sound far too strong to have been left in the vault for so long.
The horns blast, the guitars crunch and the energy rarely dips, so it plays less like a scrapbook and more like a proper album.
For fans who have chased these songs across import singles and promo discs, having them together on one LP is a genuine treat, and newcomers get a lively snapshot of what made the band such a riot on stage.
