You may remember for the first edition of “How Did I Miss That?” we went back to 7th of November last year for Miracle by The Perm. Well, for our second edition we move forward an extra 72… hours to look at Fun Comes Fast by Teenage Head.
Released on November 10th, Fun Comes Fast is a double album containing 20 remastered tracks taken from the group’s career spanning 40 years.
Fun Comes Fast is available for download and streaming on all the usual digital service providers along with the physical formats of a single disc CD and a 2 disc pink vinyl album cut at 45 RPM for increased fidelity
Frankie Venom, Gord Lewis, Steve Mahon and Nick Stipanitz. Fronted by the charismatic Venom formed Teenage Head in Hamilton, Ontario in 1975. Their live shows went into infamy for inciting apocalyptic reactions from audiences across the country. One of these show-stopping riots, at Toronto’s Horseshoe Tavern in 1978, was captured in the documentary film, The Last Pogo.
After 40 plus years, they’ve finally dug through the vaults, and with the help of Warner Music Canada, have released this 20 song collection of what many people feel to be their best work. If you’ve ever wondered what all the fuss about Teenage Head has been about, now you can finally hear it for yourself, for the first time, all on one amazingly remastered package. This is the one.
If you know of any releases we have missed please let us know in the comments below or, if you are willing to flex you writing skills, why not submit your own piece about it here.

(I’m all for that.)
As much as I hate the Sail Fail, it is the right thing to do. But does this mean they will start carrying the Morning Star as well?

Lovely thin headline typeface, the MSOL
There’s a big difference in circulation between the two papers, I think.

Bummer…
Benoit, did you happen to tune in to Soul Possession last Friday night?
10:03 No, I didn’t. Was it spectacular?
Always.
holy crap…she was only 46
Yes, and she was in London recording.
Hello all!
Garf is that first sentence of the post meant to be there? Teenage Head were on my radar. Thanks for the reminder. I remember coming across a couple of releases I had missed but I forget who they were at the moment. I will let you know if my memory bank gets repaired.
Sad news about Dolores. 🙁
@DBS, shoot, no it isn’t meant to be there, I will fix it when I get back to the PC
I went to bed last night with the new knowledge that our small community lost one of its most vibrant, committed and philanthropic members to lung cancer that metastasized to his brain. If you have a persistent cough, do go to your doc.
This morning starts with a dead cranberry … that wasn’t meant to sound funny.
Slowly processing as I do laundry and carry my old dog down the stairs to encourage her to eat.
Lets see if we can’t turn this around
Aww hugs to you Morgana. I hope the day gets a little better for you.
@Garf – It happens. 🙂

I openend windows and doors to “change the air” and made a batch of chai tea so the house smells all sweet and spicy now.
Playing good music and telling Suki she is as cute as ever.
Thank you for the virtual hugs guys.
G’night folks
