After growing up fast among Memphis crack addicts, he managed to blaze a path through the rough-and-tumble underground rock scene of the early aughts, releasing over 100 singles, EPs and full-length records in fourteen years.  Then on January 13, 2010, not yet 30, he died.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith their feature documentary Better Than Something, filmmakers Alex Hammond and Ian Markiewicz let Jay tell his own story: a poverty-stricken childhood, teen years spent as a two-fisted tunesmith battling fans and band mates alike, and a short-lived adulthood of focused and relentless productivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJay said \"I just try to make as much as I can with the time that I have.\" By any measure, that is exactly what he did.  Better Than Something is both a testament to Jay Reatard's indisputable legacy and a tribute to his vital, thrilling, and all-too-brief life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMusic by: Jay Reatard, Lost Sounds, Destruction Unit, Reatards and Oblivians -Deleted scenes \n\u003cbr\u003e-2024 interviews with cast\n\u003cbr\u003e--Film and deleted scenes commentary tracks by Eugene Kotlyarenko and Drew Tobia\n\u003cbr\u003e-32 page booklet with essays by Andrew Earles, King Khan, King Louie Bankston, Jeffrey Novak, Cole Alexander, TV Smith, Alicja Trout, Scott Bomar\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cinema 1 Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44865345978447,"sku":"810161481071","price":49.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/2787\/5407\/files\/betterthansomething-jayreatard-bluray_244d80cf-1882-4952-9a0d-e9f4362540bf.jpg?v=1773760392","url":"https:\/\/cinema1.ca\/products\/810161481071","provider":"Cinema 1 Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
