Tommy Keene: Places That Are Gone- Vinyl EP



Short but sweet!

Tommy Keene
Places That Are Gone
Dolphin DLP-2003, 1984

Keene's first LP (1981's Strange Alliance) gained a lot of press, but not the radio attention of this 1984 12" EP for Dolphin. In addition to the memorable title song (rerecorded later his first major label LP), Keene crafted four more chiming, hook-filled guitar tunes and a wickedly good cover of Alex Chilton's "Hey! Little Child." Keene continued to produce consistently fine records (from 1986's Songs from the Film through 2006's Crashing the Ether), but as with so many artists, this first spark of youthful exuberance marks a special place in his catalog.

Side 1
Places That Are Gone
Nothing Happened Yesterday
Baby Face

Side 2
Back to Zero Now
When the Truth is Found
Hey! Little Child (Alex Chilton)

All songs by Tommy Keene, except as noted.

Tommy Keene (lead vocals, guitars)
Billy Connelly (vocals, guitars)
Ted Nicely (bass)
Doug Tull (drums)

Produced by Tommy Keene and Ted Niceley

10MB, WMA, 20 Minutes

    RS link is dead. Any chance you could re-up?

    Thanks in advance, really psyched to hear this, especially that Chilton cover.

    Can you refresh the Tommy Keene link?
    I had this album back in the 80's and it has the best version of Places That Are Gone.

    Thank you very much. You must be from Mid-Atlantic area at some point. I also enjoyed the Weasel shows on WHFS. If you want to refresh any of those links, that would be great.

    Thanks again.
