Hi there, I'm a big Pixies fan, and although I don't intend to make my home here, I was wondering if anyone had some Frank related answers for me?
Basically I keep noticing Lou Reed references in Frank's work, and I was wondering how much other people saw. What's the story there? And I'm not just talking about "I wanna be a singer like Lou Reed".
Pleased to meet you.

Never clocked a Reed influence on Jumping Beans, funny!

Haha, that's awesome considering Frank wrote about this song "Trying to be Lou" in the Oddballs liner notes. Guess he pulled it off.

I can't say I notice all that many direct references to Lou Reed in Frank's songs, but I only have a passing familiarity with him and the Velvet Underground. What are some of the other examples you're talking about?
Nothing is ever something. |
