I only own three pixies bootlegs, and my favourite is the Subbacultcha one. Apparently - there are a lot of better ones out there so what one is your favourite eh? eh?

...And funnily enough, I have that on CD. The only other Pixies boots I have are cheapo cassette copies.

What is that 'Live at Mc Cabe's' show with just Charles and Joey playing? I haven't heard it.
Carl Posted - 01/28/2006 : 19:31:08
I have that on vinyl.

souls on fire is rather good- it has some of the black francis demo tracks (the CD1 on frankblackfrancis double album) plus some boss live tracks

Dyperman,, it sure would be a treat if those tapes ever found their way onto the 'Send me some Frank' thread....

Sorry, this post is just to see what happens at the 200 post level. Think I'll get a bumble bee???
The New Bolero Posted - 01/25/2006 : 15:14:22
Not to get off topic but 'Situation Red' (another stupid title) has to be the worst quality-wise.
The New Bolero Posted - 01/25/2006 : 15:13:13
I like the subbacultcha one a lot too but the horribly titled 'Give Me Ecstasy' has got to be the best because of the bonus Doolittle demos. Those are great!
Frog in the Sand Posted - 01/25/2006 : 14:41:33
I love "Rough Diamonds" and "Gone to Heaven", but the best bootleg IMHO is the "TLM release party", recorded in L.A. on Oct. 30, 1991. Great sound, EDF at the keyboards, and an amazing tracklist: Head On, Subbacultcha, Debaser, Allison, Velouria, The Navajo Know, Motorway to Roswell, Gouge Away, U-Mass, Is She Weird, Bird Dream & Planet of Sound. 5 stars out of 5.

wish I could be as cool as Kim Deal


OH MY GOD!! Any chance of torrenting those gems?


Isn´t there a spanish broadcast from that tour? Or was it a later tour. Anyway, maybe you have the spanish one and could torrent it?

no trompe songs on these tapes

Ziggy Posted - 01/22/2006 : 17:36:49
Yeah, I love 'Subbacultcha' and 'Gone to Heaven'. The version of the later I've heard (as mp3s) seems to have altered in pitch; songs are waaay out of their usual keys. Bad tape transfer perhaps?
dyperman Posted - 01/22/2006 : 16:32:23
and also a really rowdy show in scotland where the fans were so drunk they moshed the stage and moved it. Kim calles them a bunch of "punters"...lol

Just picked up a copy of 'Rough Diamonds' today. Very, very good. All tracks are alternate studio takes and make for some good listening. A nice change from hearing the regular takes. Excellent quality as well. Highly recommended....

gotta be Gone to Heaven twinned with Subbacultcha, prime swingin' pig boots
Daisy Girl Posted - 08/27/2004 : 12:50:58
I only own All Over the World... got nothing to compare it to pre reunion wise tho' :) I think it's pretty good. But I think the Disc Lives are better quality.

i like the Transatlantic bootleg u can find floatin aroudn ebay from time to time..that and bonemachine live, very good sounding recordings on both and very energetic sets and fans.
ractrader Posted - 07/14/2004 : 07:20:07
What about Live in Vienna 1989? That one sounds great and the show is amazing...
idiot_sleep Posted - 07/13/2004 : 07:51:15
Someone mentioned the WERS shows. I would agree that both shows, 1/18/1987 and 5/7/87, are some of the best bootlegs around. The sound is great and you get the interviews after the set. A great 1989 show is Orpheum Theatre Minneapolis, MN 9/12/1989. Pixies opened for the Cure at that show and the set is really short, but damn the band never sounded better. Best version of "into the white" that I've heard is on that recording.

ja, i have a few one - i also think, subbacultcha is the best one. just because of the mix of the songs. a lot of trompe and bossanova, and also all their earlier classics. i like the end: "thank you. we would like to play a jesus and mary chain song. perhaps you know it. it's called head on." a very good recording also. they go through their super set without any break, no talking to the audience, just pure energy from the music. great.

gone to heaven is also nice - especially the section with crackity jones and d=rxt.

i think the WERS radio shows are the best ones.
but the best sounding one is the 22/12/91 sow which i believe is the one don is talking about.

but there aren't many quality recordings of the pixies.

but i recently got one from 1991 in NYC that while is a bit quite has an absolutely killer version of all over the world....

still none of them have a scratch on the town and country show....

I've got this bootleg of a show in Los Angeles (1991) in which they had a blinding rendition of 'Dancing the Manta Ray', which up until that point was a good B-side. The way Mr. Black had screamed in this tracks moved me as I happened to be in Barcelona at the time (well outskirts) peering over the Med....quite an exhilirating experience...That song made the whole bootleg!
