Bad Scene, is an LP of guitar improvisations and songs by the multigenerational improvisational protest-duo Eugene Chadbourne and Jim McHugh.

Made mostly in Eugene's living room in Greensboro, NC on Jan 21st and 23rd, 2020 during a family visit between Sunwatchers tours by the NC native McHugh, Bad Scene was recorded live in single takes to Jim's portable multitrack rig. Augmented by overdubs in some cases to create chamber-quartets or full-band vibes, all songs remain, at their hearts, duets. Jim McHugh is a musician and producer from Reidsville, NC now based in Brooklyn. He is founder of the jazz-punk band Sunwatchers. Dr. Eugene Chadbourne has been active as an improviser, songwriter, protest singer, collaborator, composer and producer of DIY releases since the early 1970's, when he left the US as a Conscientious Objector to the Viet Nam War. Based in Greensboro, NC since his 1982 relocation from Manhattan, Doc has played, toured, recorded and released records with everyone from Derek Bailey to Frank Lowe to Sun City Girls to Camper Van Beethoven to John Zorn to Brian Jackson to The Violent Femmes to Anthony Braxton to Keiji Haino to Han Bennink to Peter Brotzman to Jimmy Carl Black and Sunwatchers.

Shipping, Returns & Cancellations

SHIPPING:

We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.

Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.

RETURNS:

Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.

Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.

CANCELLATIONS:

Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.

Thank you for your understanding.
