Cold Chisel - Teenage Love (1994) {2011, Remastered Collector's Edition}

Teenage Love is a compilation album by Australian pub rock band Cold Chisel, released in 1994. The album collected studio recordings, many just demos, that were not used on previous albums. Phil Small said, "There was always a surplus of 3 to 4 tracks with each album." The tracks were recorded between 1976 and 1983. "Hands Out of My Pocket", "Nothing But You" and "Yesterdays" were issued as singles.

Don Walker said of the album, "Most of the time they were recorded as demos, so it's just the band in the studio slamming down a new song. For a certain number of them, it's the only time we ever played the song." Walker insisted that the tracks be released without any overdubs." "The Party's Over" was a live staple for the band but not included on earlier studio albums. Teenage Love's studio version originally appeared (with a different mix) as the B-side of "Knocking On Heaven's Door", the bonus single that, in 1980, accompanied the first 10,000 Australian pressings of the East album.

"A Little Bit of Daylight" is an early version of the song recorded by Jimmy Barnes as "Daylight" on his solo album Bodyswerve. "Monica", a song written by Prestwich, is the only Cold Chisel song that Don Walker doesn't play on, as he claims he couldn't play with a "latin feel."

The impetus for the album was manager Rod Willis finding some tapes with song titles he didn't recognise, sending the details to Walker. Walker said, "I went to a tape drawer I hadn't opened since 1984 and found some of the songs on Rod's list plus one or two others. The quality of the playing was just astonishing."

The album reached the number 6 in the Australian charts.
