My belated brother loved TFC and got to know this band quite well (he was a Celtic supporter too),I went along with him to see them at the Lemon Tree, got backstage afterwards ,plenty booze & smoked hash with them. If I've told this story before STV ,forgive me , I'm the big 5 0 this weekend ....My old man brain is kicking in.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, so few do. I have a good friend in CLE, Ohio, he runs a great YT channel, go take a look and tell Ken I sent you. ruclips.net/channel/UCPDwqMECWV_Yxdpn_oBxeRA
I'm a huge Big Star fan. Never really cared much about Alex Chilton's solo career. I'm also a huge Teenage Fanclub fan and I know they owe a huge debt to Big Star so these two talents playing together is obviously logical and it sounds pretty great.
I was lucky. The first record I ever bought as a 6 year old was The Letter, so I went with Alex on the journey of his life…as such, the solo stuff made sense to me when it happened. To play someone Daisy Glaze and then Bangkok would be a mistake. They’ll hate it, when they shouldn’t.
@@richalderson6069 He certainly didn’t. Even I had issues with some of the later records, like A Man Called Destruction. They sit better with me now that I have gotten older. But I bought Like Flies when it cane out, and the 19 year old musical psychopath that I was was immediately sucked in. I sure do miss him.
These are covers. The first one is "I've Never Found a Girl (To Love Me Like You Do)", originally by the great soul singer Eddie Floyd. The other one is "My Heart Stood Still" written by Rodgers & Hart for a 1927 revue and later sung/played by Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Chet Baker, Bill Evans, etc.

I used to have a copy of an entire gig they did together. It was fantastic. Thanks for posting this.
I;m glad you found and enjoyed this video
Gosh, I miss Alex. "The Singer, Not the Song." indeed, but of course Alex had exquisite taste. A human jukebox, with the purtiest voice.
He had such presence. His voice and guitar always stood out over the mix. He was always a Star.
Absolutely spotless delivery from AC ❤️
Perfect combo ❤
Some damned good music, here. :)
Couldn't agree more😉

Happy birthday!
Jonathan Ellis Thanks buddy.👍
Happy Birthday ! 🎂
@@ScottishTeeVee Cheers pal.👍🏻
So psyched you posted this.
Glad you enjoyed this
@@ScottishTeeVee Yes, indeed! I'm from Memphis, so anything Alex Chilton (and Teenage Fanclub, for good measure) is fine by me.
Absolutely quality
wonderful; thank you.
Our pleasure!
Did you catch how LX threw the "Theme to A Summer Place" into his solo?
I always thought he was playing the organ riff from “Time is Tight” by Booker T. and the MGs. They’re similar.
@@jourdanredden3190 it’s definitely time is tight. “I've Never Found A Girl” has a writing credit for booker t
The original recording by Eddie Floyd has a guitar solo that quotes "Theme to a Summer Place". Definitely not "Time is Tight".
Brilliant. An amazing idiosyncratic guitar
Very very nice, thank you for sharing this.
Thanks for posting this great collaboration. I confess to not knowing much about TFC with Alex, all in the zone.
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it
Oi STV!! Great post. I'm a big fan of Alex and TFC. Subscribed!! Peace & Love from CLE Ohio USA

@jeffshoemaker2462 Alex was never predictable, he never did things the easy way.

is the woman who does the intro and outro for this performance known to folks? asking for a friend :)
She's on Twitter @SiobhanSynnot
Do you know in which venue this was recorded ?
Great video and collaboration. What songs are these? I can’t find them elsewhere.
