Please visit the link any time between now and the start of the next programme Where do I start? Because there's so much to tell you about - so much bristling aural content - in this week's programme, it's difficult to know where to begin. Let's start with the man whose unfettered imagination, wily chord changes, and penchant for dynamic shifts and bellowings that'd shake black holes off their hinges changed music forever. Without Pixies there'd be no Nirvana. It's impossible to gauge the exact depth and breadth of the Boston band's influence. But if you have friends who don't feel an affinity with Gouge Away, Gigantic, Wave Of Mutilation, Where Is My Mind? etc. then I would seriously reconsider your relationship with. One day, they may bring a James Morrison CD into the house. How quaint! I said "CD". Anyway, the man who wrote the songs listed above was Charles Michael Kitteridge Thompson IV aka Black Francis aka (following Pixies' initial split) Frank Black. And in this week's show we have a play for the recently re-discovered acoustic session he recorded for me in Mold on 17 May 1994. It's ace.
