This is a best of album including tracks from the bands six studio albums (covering 12 years of band-history) and three new songs: 'The World'll Be OK', 'Empty Space' and 'Did I Say'. The band decided to reschedule the release of the album (it was planned to be released in November) as they felt there were too many compilation albums being released this autumn. With Pulp's 'Hits' album failing to make the top 75 it looks like they may have made a wise move. Band Info: A year on, having signed to Creation Records and supplemented by the support of a vociferous music press, Teenage Fanclub toned down their sound, allowing the melodies to come through more forcefully in a manner that self-consciously recalled the 70s guitar sound of Big Star and Neil Young (they became fundamental in instigating the former band's revival in the early 90s). Inevitably, "Starsign"- with a cover version of Madonna's "Like A Virgin' on the b-side - threatened the UK charts on the back of the band's new impetus. Bandwagonesque arrived at the end of 1991 and became one of the year's most memorable albums. Laced with chiming guitar and irresistible melody, it suggested a band ready to outgrow their humble independent origins. A sense of huge disappointment accompanied the release of Thirteen, completed in eight months after touring on the back of the better-received Bandwagonesque (which sold 70,000 copies in the UK and 150,000 in the USA). This resulted in a concerted effort to make the band's fifth studio album, Grand Prix, an exceptional return to form. The songs were rehearsed for three months before entering the studio, where everything was fine-tuned over a five-week period at the Manor in Oxford with producer Dave Bianco (formerly Black Crowes producer George Dracoulias" engineer). It also saw the introduction of new drummer Paul Quinn, formerly of the Soup Dragons. O'Hare, meanwhile, formed the Telstar Ponies with ex-Creation guitarist David Keenan. Reassuringly, the opening singles from these sessions, "Mellow Doubt" and "Sparky's Dream", showed them still to be writing basic, heroically romantic and happy guitar pop songs. Songs From Northern Britain continued the theme, showing further shades of the 60s with strong Beatles and Byrds influences present. Although the pace was lighter, this record contained some of their finest moments, with the jewel being Blake's glorious "I Don't Want Control Of You". Gene Clark would have doffed his cap to this magnificent slice of lilting pop. Ex-BMX Bandits keyboard player Finlay McDonald joined the band full-time at the end of 1997. Following the collapse of Creation, Teenage Fanclub signed to Columbia Records for the release of their new album, Howdy!. The band's next project was a sometimes inspired collaboration with maverick singer-songwriter Jad Fair on the Velvet Underground-inspired Words Of Wisdom And Hope.
