Crenshaw, a performer in the musical Beatlemania, had begun to write songs for the album while staying in New York. The album was recorded with his backing band and producer Richard Gottehrer in a style Crenshaw felt was "sterile". Marshall Crenshaw was a promising debut for Crenshaw, reaching number 50 in the United States and featuring a hit single in "Someday, Someway." Reviews were overwhelmingly positive and many of Crenshaw's most famous songs, such as "Cynical Girl," "Maryanne," and "There She Goes Again," were featured on the album. BackgroundIn the late 1970s, Marshall Crenshaw moved from his home state of Michigan to New York City to perform in the musical Beatlemania.[1] During this time, Crenshaw began to write songs that would later appear on his debut album, including "Someday, Someway"; he recalled, "While I was [in New York], I wrote 'Someday, Someway' and five or six of the other tunes on my first album. I wrote those in my hotel room. That was my next move in life, to be a recording artist." After releasing his debut single, "Something's Gonna Happen," on Shake Records, Crenshaw received offers from RCA and Warner Brothers to record and release an album; Crenshaw ultimately chose Warner Brothers due to its more welcoming environment.[2] Crenshaw also formed a backing band consisting of his brother Robert Crenshaw on drums and Chris Donato on bass. This band would record with Crenshaw for his first two albums. RecordingMarshall Crenshaw was recorded with producer Richard Gotterher at the Power Station in New York.[3] Crenshaw wanted to produce his debut album alone but Gotterher was brought in by Warner Bros. after sessions stalled; Crenshaw recalled, "We started making our first album and I sort of [BS'd] my way into the producer's chair but it didn't work out. So Richard Gottehrer came in and he helped me make the record."[3][4] Gotterher, a former songwriter whose hits included "I Want Candy" and "My Boyfriend's Back", had worked on albums by new wave artists such as Blondie and the Go-Go's.[3]Marshall Crenshaw features layered performances with clean production. Crenshaw later expressed dissatisfaction with the way the album was produced, saying, "That band back then was really slick. Almost too slick. I see the tapes of that now and I think, 'This is a little too polished, almost.' We just rehearsed all the time. We were just playing clubs in the city, but we would still get together twice a week and go over stuff, and I would really drill those guys: 'Here's how the bass drum goes, and put the cymbal crash here.' I was very specific all the time—probably too much so. Now I think it was too much."[5]SongsMarshall Crenshaw features several of Crenshaw's most famous songs, such as "Someday, Someway", "There She Goes Again", "Cynical Girl", and "Mary Anne".[6] Crenshaw spoke favorably of the songwriting on the album, saying, "The stuff was really well written. There was a discernible viewpoint that came across. It captured something, a statement was being made. We generated a lot of excitement in New York City from grassroots and built it up in less than a year. We had it really nailed down, but things got tricky after that." "Someday, Someway" was among the first songs Crenshaw wrote for the album and was inspired by "Lotta Lovin'" by Gene Vincent.[3] "I'll Do Anything" was often played live during this time and features lyrics which Crenshaw described as "a one-to-one conversation with somebody [where there is] one person trying to comfort another person or reassure another person." Crenshaw also said that both "I'll Do Anything" and "Maryanne" were about "try[ing] not to let your anxieties overwhelm you."[5] "Cynical Girl" was, according to Crenshaw, "really not about a girl—that's just off-the-shelf rock-and-roll language. To me, what the song says in a funny way is 'I hate brain-dead mass-culture [stuff] and I want to hang around with people who feel the same.' People have always really loved that song and identified with it and of course I love that!"[7] Release and reception{{Album ratings| rev1 = AllMusic | rev1Score = {{Rating|5|5}}[8] | rev2 = Christgau's Record Guide | rev2Score = A[9] | rev3 = Encyclopedia of Popular Music | rev3Score = {{Rating|4|5}}[10] | rev4 = Rolling Stone | rev4Score = {{Rating|4|5}}[11] | rev5 = The Rolling Stone Album Guide | rev5Score = {{Rating|4|5}}[12] | rev6 = Spin Alternative Record Guide | rev6Score = 9/10[13] | noprose = yes }}Marshall Crenshaw was released in April 1982. The album spent over six months on the Billboard chart, peaking at No. 50,[14] and eventually sold close to 400,000 copies in the United States. Contemporary reviews were glowing, with Rolling Stone calling it "1982's most gorgeous singer-songwriter debut" and claiming that "every song here sounds like a classic."[19] Rolling Stone later included the album in their list of "The 100 Best Albums of the Eighties", coming in at No. 72.[15] The album's debut single, "Someday, Someway", reached No. 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the summer of 1982,[16] as well as No. 31 on the Cash Box singles chart. The single is Crenshaw's highest charting song. "Cynical Girl" and "There She Goes Again" were also released as singles; the latter reached number 110 in the United States.[17] Despite its initial promise, the album failed to hit platinum and his follow-up album, Field Day, was a commercial failure. Crenshaw explained, "After the first album didn't go platinum -- everybody thought it would; I thought it would -- it was '82-'83, and we were out promoting these records. I made both my first two albums just in that space of time. Eighty-four came around, and I thought: 'Here I worked all my life to get to this point and now it's over, right now. It's all over now!"[18] Track listing{{tracklist| all_writing = Marshall Crenshaw, except where noted | total_length = 34:10 | title1 = There She Goes Again | length1 = 2:39 | title2 = Someday, Someway | length2 = 2:53 | title3 = Girls... | length3 = 3:04 | title4 = I'll Do Anything | length4 = 3:03 | title5 = Rockin' Around in N.Y.C. | length5 = 3:10 | title6 = The Usual Thing | length6 = 3:06 | title7 = She Can't Dance | note7 = Crenshaw, Rick Cioffi, Fred Todd | length7 = 2:47 | title8 = Cynical Girl | length8 = 2:37 | title9 = Mary Anne | length9 = 2:57 | title10 = Soldier of Love (Lay Down Your Arms) | note10 = Buzz Cason, Tony Moon | length10 = 2:39 | title11 = Not for Me | length11 = 2:38 | title12 = Brand New Lover | length12 = 2:39 }} A remastered, reissued version on Rhino/Warner Archives features bonus tracks, which include demos and live tracks.
