Now, more details on are beginning to creep into the picture regarding the Jon Tiven-produced LP. Namely, a tracklist! The album features 11 original songs from Black, including "Atom in My Heart", "Another Velvet Nightmare" (co-written with Reid Paley), "Go Find Your Saint", "Violet", "I Burn Today", and "My Life Is in Storage". Three cover songs round things out: Doug Sahm's "Sunday Sunny Mill Valley Groove Day", Roy Bennett and Sid Tepper's "Song of the Shrimp"-- which was made popular by Elvis Presley in the film Girls, Girls, Girls-- and Dan Penn and Chips Moman's "Dark End of the Street". Here's the tracklist: 01 Selkie Bride 02 I Burn Today 03 Lone Child 04 Another Velvet Nightmare 05 Dark End of the Street 06 Go Find Your Saint 07 Song of the Shrimp 08 Strange Goodbye 09 Sunday Sunny Mill Valley Groove Day 10 Honeycomb 11 My Life Is in Storage 12 Atom in My Heart 13 Violet 14 Sing for Joy In related news, Black fansite www.frankblack.net is reporting that a second disc will spring from the above mentioned Nashville sessions. Black is hoping for a January 2006 release for the album, which is currently under the working title The Sicilian. Likely, the success of Honeycomb will be a determining factor. Honeycomb features some help from legendary Southern-rock musicians such as Steve Cropper, Spooner Oldham, David Hood, and Chester Thompson. "I can say without a doubt that the Honeycomb session was the most moving and mind-blowing experience I've ever had in my musical career," Black said in a press release. "Steve Cropper co-wrote the first rock 'n' roll song that I ever sang in front of an audience ["In The Midnight Hour"]. It was a pure pleasure to come full circle with Mr. Cropper." No immediate plans have been made for a Honeycomb-induced tour, but Black still has plenty of gigging left this summer with the rest of his Pixies.
