| TFC's Norman Blake & LX Chilton - not really The Odd Couple! |
REPERCUSSION: Of all the latter-day groups heavily inspired by Big Star, The Posies and Scottish alt-pop group Teenage Fanclub seem to have won the most respect from the late LX Chilton. Together, LX & Teenage Fanclub recorded a vinyl-only single in 1993 (with "Mine Exclusively" on the A-side and "Patti Girl" on the flip — both rather obscure cover tunes). That same year and in 1996, LX made some live appearances with TFC, one of which was this show in the group's hometown.

Weirdly there seems disagreement online on whether this set was in '93 or '96...
ReplyDeletealso #10 is actually 'Have I The Right'
ReplyDeleteYup, I saw both dates when I was doing my research. Given the date of the single they did together & other appearances that same year, I went with 1993.
DeleteI accept your take on the correct title for #10. I have to say, though, I saw both when I was preparing the post and just picked one...
The folks identified do have a song 'Come on Back', but sounds way different on YouTube at least...
ReplyDeleteI've just changed the title to track 10.
DeleteHadn't heard the second set before. Cool stuff.
ReplyDelete1996. They did two dates, on the 7th and 8th.
ReplyDeleteThanks, DD (I feel like your handle applies very well to my trying to date this show!). Just changed the date to '96.
DeleteThanks a lot,Love Alex Chilton,Big Star and TFC.
ReplyDeleteCheers Danny.
Thanks for the thanks, Danny. Welcome aboard.
DeleteNever a huge fan of wooly bully, but they fucking nail it!
ReplyDelete8-)
DeleteFunny, because I don't usually think of the Fannies being a great cover band!
What a joy to stumble onto this! Thank you so much for sharing it!
