TOMMY KEENE - Songs from The Film - the 1984 Reflection Sessions (2026 RSD VINYL) | Mint (M) Mint (M)

Fresh off the media and college radio success of his debut EP Places That Are Gone in 1984, Tommy Keene took his band back into the studio for his follow-up full-length album. Funded by North Carolina independent label Dolphin Records, Keene enlisted emerging production stars T-Bone Burnett and Don Dixon to record the tracks at Reflection Sound Studios in Charlotte - recently the home of R.E.M. for their Murmur and Reckoning sessions. The resulting completed album is presented here for the first time in it's intended mixes and sequencing. Geffen Records picked up Tommy's contract (and this album) in 1985, and subsequently shelved these versions and re-recorded the whole project with Geoff Emerick producing. Released in 1986, that was the only version of Songs From The Film available - until now. So, forty years later and for the first time on vinyl, a hidden power pop classic makes it's debut on Record Store Day 2026.
