Was he born in Boston, raised in Cali, then went to school in Boston or what? Thanx! |

Wow. You'd think that hard luck and bad news would always be at his door.

The answer is the Pacific shore. The place where he was born and the place where he did hardly grow.
He's a rambler and rambling is his fate. And rambling is the only life he knows. Through the rain the sleet and the snow, he's bound to be out on that interstate. Headed on to the next toll-man's gate. 'Cause rambling is the rambler's state
--------
he’s tripping over graves • as rain begins to fall • and finally they escape when the shuttle bus is called |

Here's an idea, why don't we all just meet halfway and say (that?) he was born in Nebraska? |

The FBF liner notes are proof enough. |

I would love to find that too...My guess is that might be very difficult!

I like the idea of being born on an alien ship. But you know... Cali, Boston, Uraguay an alien ship... it all boils down to the fact he was born at some point and then you know was able to create all this really cool music!!  |

I can't believe you are still on this. I'd be willing to go to Boston City Hall, it's only a few minutes from where I work, but I'm very hesitant to do so. I think it would kind of piss Frank off. Kind of invades his privacy, you know? It is a public record, but I don't think he would like a fan perusing for his birth certificate. |

It' just amazes me that this is such a mystery.
it's so irrelevant to his music I know, the question about his birth.
But it's just one of those facts you presume you know about your favourite artist. In this case, we don't.
Gotta love the Black. He just keeps me hanging. |

Nah, I don't really know. I just wanted to add to the mystery. In my research for the bio I came across all sorts of things, so I stuck with what his old bio had. Long Beach, California.
Perhaps he was saying that Black Francis/Frank Black was born in Boston as opposed to Charles Thompson. Or maybe he was born in Boston and moved to the coast and then back. I don't know.

For my purposes, the correct answer is anywhere but Long Beach. Spill it, Dean.

i ended up getting FBF and, yes, i noticed the typo where he doesn't say Long Beach. i'm surprised that no one proofread the liner notes.
