From AMG Reviews

One of the ways to spot a bootleg is an unusually quirky, cute or odd title. Teenage Orgasm doesn't sound the title of a commercial No Doubt release -- the sales department at Interscope would have probably worried about frightening away some of the U.S.' more squeamish retailers -- and, to be sure, a bootleg is exactly what it is. One of the many bootlegs that resulted from No Doubt's European tour of 1997, Teenage Orgasm finds the alternative pop-rockers headlining ~the Berlin Arena on February 3. The best bootleg to come from that tour is probably Fruity Frutty, recorded in Stockholm the following month. But if you're a diehard fan, Teenage Orgasm is also worth picking up. Obviously, this CD wasn't meant for the casual listener -- spirited live versions of "Spiderwebs," "Just a Girl," "Don't Speak" and other hits are for those who had already played their copies of Tragic Kingdom to death. Fans will also appreciate No Doubt's ska-rock version of the Beatles' "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da," which is performed as an encore. Recorded from the soundboard, Teenage Orgasm offers good sound quality, although the sound isn't as sharp as it is on the No Doubt bootlegs Fruity Frutty and Happy, both on Moonraker.
