Just saw this
https://redzeppelinrecords.com/UPC/5014797913257
Looks like Teenager of the Year was recorded live and is being pressed on vinyl for Black Friday RSD.
The blurb says 'Featuring recordings from the live tour across US, Paris, London' however the sticker on the record in the image says 'Captured during the 2025 tour in London' suggesting it is the London show.
Very glad they are doing a release for this, definitely expecting a tighter performance on this than the unfortunate Bossa/Trompe live record.
Selfishly I do hope it's the full London show because that's the one I was at haha |

the image is very likely generated. that's often the case when releases are announced.
but this release was on several websites, including the RSD website.
so this must've been a planned release at some point, no? (i might be wrong.)
i hope it does get a release eventually, and this was just a matter of "can't get the thing pressed on time".
on the other hand i do find it a bit weird that we didn't hear about this earlier. when was this first announced?
no idea how long this has been online, but from our point of view, auxfnx found this two days ago, and then yesterday it was gone again... strange.

That's funny, indeed, Discoking!
We will have this sooner or later, I guess.
Still haven't picked up the Bossa/Trompe-release. I don't care if it's bad, but I'm not paying full price!

| Maybe it wasn't ready in time for RSD Black Friday, so there will be a push for it instead for RSD proper? |

I wish FB self-titled would be re-released and reviewed again. As great TOTY is, these days I am listening to the orange album a lot, and I think it is the essence of TOTY elevated to even higher levels. Lyrically, musically, thematically it is somewhat close to Trompe, although in a very different style. A unique Thompson-Feldman collaboration.

| Yes, TOTY is an incredible album, but there is something magical about self-titled, in that I just can't wrap my brain around it and its production. It's transcendent to me. |

Hearing the 3 encore songs (LA, Every Time, Ramona) live was the highlight for me of the TOTY show. In particular the connection with the audience during LA, and Lyle playing lead guitar on Ramona as the last song of the set - incredible.

| That was great, though I was really hoping to round out that era of songs with Men in Black... |

| Wasn't sure whether to make a new thread or not. I see on Spotify that it says Teenager of the Year remastered. For the life of me I hear no difference between this and the other version. Anyone have any insight into this? |

| Also, Also, I know Teenager is already a long album but I find it strange the 30th Anniversary Edition has no bonus tracks, b-sides, demos or anything extra at all whatsoever. Disappointing. |

You could easily make a TOTY boxset. Bring it on!

the album was remastered for the 2LP 45rpm reissue on gold vinyl: https://www.discogs.com/release/32876520-Frank-Black-Teenager-Of-The-Year-30th-Anniversary-Tour-Edition
"This edition has been remastered from the original analogue tapes [...] under the watchful eye of Eric Drew Feldman"
i guess this version was also made available digitally, on spotify and other platforms.
what it sounds like, compared to the original release, i'll have to leave to someone else. maybe it's very similar, indeed?

I have the vinyl and it sounds good, but I'm not enough of an audiophile to make comparisons. |

interesting that it ended up requiring an extra LP to fit the show! the mix and recording of Headache sounds amazing so I'm even more hyped for this to finally drop
i think this will be the first show i've attended that an official recording is released for :) |

| Still reeling from that gig. Should have been the best gig I've attended but it was sorta tainted by eejits in the crowd. |

For some reason it reminded me how Primrose reminds me of the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, especially the Butthole Surfers cover of it. |
