Teenage Fanclub Fanclub
With the release of their new single I'm in Love bloggers favourites Teenage Fanclub have been all over our small corner of the blogosphere like a rash.
This had me reaching to the Teenage Fanclub section for a six track sampler which came free with the Scotland on Sunday in April or May 2005 in the run up to the release of Man- Made
The six tracks are as follows
1- Slow Fade - a preview of the track from Man-Made
2 - I Need Direction (alternative version) - a 2005 softer version of the track from Howdy!
3 - Please Stay - a new song recorded in March 2005 in Hamilton
4 - The World 'll Be Ok (alternative version) - recorded in Busby in April 2005
5 - I Saw The Light - Todd Rundgren as opposed to Hank Williams- recorded in 1991 with Brendan O'Hare on drums - previously unreleased
6 - Same Place , Different Place- previously issued by Twisted Nerve on a limited edition 7" in 2003
Two featured today but if you want all six, and I suspect many of you will, just give me a shout.
Teenage Fanclub - Please Stay
Teenage Fanclub -The World'll Be OK (alternative version)
(Jumps up and down, waving arms around in an exaggerated manner) Yes please!

DeleteWould love to hear the Rundgren cover, amigo.
ReplyDeleteThe new single is really good. Sadly, having heard the rest of the album, I can report it's by far the best thing on there. The rest is weak and fey. It's not often I find myself yearning for "the good old days", but TFC were undeniably at their very best during those halcyon years.
ReplyDeleteI've got this but I don't think that I have ever played it!
ReplyDeleteI've now played it at least twice Drew!
ReplyDeleteLike what you do here but a lot of new stuff I have never heard before so getting an education.
ReplyDeleteCheers - hope you are enjoying some of the music
ReplyDeleteWould be very nice if you could
