About
"Short Sharp Shocked" is the second album by American singer-songwriter Michelle Shocked, released on August 15, 1988 by Mercury Records. It was remastered and reissued in 2003 as a two-CD set by Shocked's own label, Mighty Sound. The title Short Sharp Shocked is a play on the phrase "short, sharp shock". The photograph of Shocked that appears on the album cover was taken by Chris Hardy of the San Francisco Examiner at a protest in San Francisco during the 1984 Democratic National Convention. The title and cover image are similar to those of the 1984 album Short Sharp Shock by the English punk rock band Chaos UK, who would respond by titling their 1989 album The Chipping Sodbury Bonfire Tapes after Shocked's 1986 album The Texas Campfire Tapes.
