About this product
Scott McCarl may have only appeared on a single Raspberries (their 1974 swan song, Starting Over), but the bassist was a very talented singer/songwriter - one of the reasons why Eric Carmen and company enlisted him in the first place. So why it took McCarl so bloody long to issue a solo album in the wake of the Raspberries' 1975 split-up was a bit puzzling to fans. Titled after his best-known Raspberries composition, Play On surfaced in 1998, and showed that despite the long layoff, McCarl's gift for Beatlesque vocals and power pop had not dulled in the slightest. Standouts include such melodic originals as InchI'll Be on My Way,Inch InchIn Love Without a Girl,Inch and InchRun for the Sun,Inch as well as a pair of covers - InchYes It IsInch by the Beatles and InchNobody KnowsInch by his old pals, the Raspberries. Hardcore Raspberries fans should definitely try to hunt down a copy of Play On - it's pretty darn impressive how well McCarl single-handedly approximates his former band's sticky-sweet sound.

![The Boo Radleys - In Spite Of Everything - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/49d0f1f5-5b4d-4997-aaa9-769b12c0fdc0.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
2026 , The Boo Radley's third album since they got back together at the start of this decade and their ninth overall. Continuing on from the comeback album, 'Keep On With Falling'(2002), and it's follow-up, 'Eight' (2023), this album is a defiant statement of perseverance and creative survival from a band that has weathered industry indifference, lineup changes, and two decades of separation. Fans can expect the band to continue their trajectory of experimentation balanced with the melodic sophistication that has defined their best work.
