Tommy Keene - Songs From The Film: The 1984 Reflection Sessions [RSD 2026]

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 its 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. 

Forty years later and for the first time on vinyl, a hidden power pop classic makes its debut on Record Store Day 2026.
