*** 1/2 Frank Black, “Teenager of the Year,” Elektra. Remember Pong? William Mulholland? The Three Stooges? CB radios? Frank Black does, and he sets these and other preoccupations into the vigorously inventive swirl of punk-garage-psychedelic-progressive rock that launched his post-Pixies career so auspiciously last year. A pop-rock enthusiast and iconoclast of the first order, Black deserves the same salute that he offers L.A. water baron Mulholland: Ole ole.
