I've still only got Grand Prix, so I guess it will have to be that. I like all the songs, but the various songwriting styles do become a bit obvious at times. I recently came across a band from the mid-nineties called Silver Sun, who, to my ears, though working in a similar musical area, were every bit as good as Teenage Fanclub: they don't appear to have had much in the way of success though. Their eponymous debut, had the same Who, Beach Boys and general power-pop influences as T.F. and used them to equally good effect, but perhaps there was only room for one band like this at the time: well worth checking out though.
