Ok so this isn't a real reference to our Frank Black since it was put out in 1986 but still pretty cool.

Well if they don't I think you've amply demonstrated this hole in the playing card market.

They're just plain & simple ol' playing cards with pornographic images on the 'non-playing' side.

other frank-eno connections.... eno worked with bowie, and bowie sang with frank; eno worked with u2, and bono spoke of the pixies in that documentary (right?); eno worked with john cale + nico, and fb loves them v.u.; eno was in roxy music, fb covered a roxy song; eno worked with talking heads, and jerry harrison was in the modern lovers of which fb wrote the man who was too loud; ... other connections? or is this boring you?
actually, this is the best thing i've read on the forum all day. thank you. this is why i am here.

Haha oh crap. Talk about having Frank Black on the mind, I completly thought that this Eno release was called more BLACK than Frank, maybe because I found is searching for Frank Black on eBay, anyway apparently it's BLANK which is a pretty weak connection, so sorry about that.

Honestly I don't see what's strange about it. Two words that share 9 out of 10 common letters and the words aren't even in the same order. Plus CT didn't even call himself "Frank Black" until almost two decades after Eno's album.
 Does anyone remember laughter? |

By the way, K, I haven't heard anything from Obfuscate yet, so that's why your podcast isn't up yet. Sorry anyway.

My fb.net podcast will mention that Eno's 1973 glam-rock masterpiece "Here Come the Warm Jets" includes a song called "Blank Frank."
Thanks for posting. I wonder what Frank thinks of all this.
