Teenage Fanclub Grand Prix: Remastered (Import Vinyl LP) * * *

Remastered from the Original Tapes at Abbey Road Studios, London Under the Guidance of the Band

1995's Grand Prix is arguably the definitive Teenage Fanclub album and their most critically and commercially successful. For many this record surpasses the genius of Bandwagonesque, something not many thought possible. The LP firmly establishes the band's sound and their individual songwriting ability hits rarefied heights – Love's "Sparky's Dream," Blake's "Mellow Doubt" and McGinley's "Verisimilitude," each a colossus in the Fanclub canon. Grand Prix is the sound of a band of considerable individual talent, and yet one that is greater than the sum of its parts, at their peak. Remastered from the original tapes at Abbey Road Studios, London under the guidance of the band and packaged in a faithful re-production of the original vinyl artwork.
