I was a very active collector of live/rare recordings from around '97 thru '03. I recently ripped my Frank Black and Pixies cdrs to my external hard drive(s). Looking for a good home for the discs. There's probably about 90 Frank Black discs and 40 Pixies. Quality/source/rareness varies, obviously. Some great stuff, many hours of listening pleasure. I don't have a list of everything, and would rather deal with it all in one shot. Discs only, but I've got typed out tracklists/notes for the majority of them that I can email you.
For shipping cost reasons, US buyer only, sorry. Asking $50 total paypal'd.. sound ok? That should cover shipping and a bit left over for an extravagant night on the town.
Whoever gets these is encouraged to share them however they want.. megaupload, dimeadozen, whatever.
email me of interested.
thanks
edit: it's now been spoken for.

I'm uploading a few more from switchy's collection at the moment.
It's been a while, but am laid up at the moment so thought I'd dust off a few more.
Head over to dimeadozen for a look.
Shout here if you aren't a member there and I'll post a list of what I've uploaded and I could mega.nz some/all of them if there's interest.

Can i Put my 2 cents worth in for some of the radio sessions from the collection
below are just some of the radio sessions i dont have and may appear on the cd collection (as there in his trade list), but it seems keeping up with this blokes performances on the radio is a difficult thing
it might be a bit tedious uploading all of these things to dime as there so small, so maybe a big megaupload file perhaps? even just one of these sessions would be appreciated

dimeadozen isn't an invite site. you have to be a member to use it.
go to the signup page. if it tells you there are no places available, just sit there for a few minutes refreshing the page. they purge unused accounts constantly, so if you refresh the page for a few mins, an account will become available.
and rest, if history.
let us know how ya go - i'm away for a few days so can't put the moe's cafe one anywhere yet, but if you've had no luck, or inclination, by the time i get back i'll put it on megaupload....it is a great wee show.

no worries. if you saw the size of the pile i've got, you'd see how long i've got to go.
i haven't uploaded any to a non-dimeadozen source (except for the peel session) yet.
is there still some interest in that - if not, i won't bother and leave everything dime-only....

28 Bad Wicked World
29 Hostess With The Mostest
Length: 82:44
Info: A very good show this one - quality is very good, and alot of banter. Frank starts playing a solo electric set. He is then joined by his band (Eric Drew Feldman - bass, Nick Vincent - drums, Lyle Workman - guitar).
Teenager Of The Year was released 3 days prior (on May 24th 1994) so he plays most of the album - perhaps this was the album release party?
Frank talks about the songs a lot, introducing almost every one, which makes for a great show. They played 2 shows at McCabes that day, and this is the 2nd show.

Same for me, definitely would have considered buying this.
But benji is one of the most generous forumers when it come to sharing (as we've already seen countless times) so the collection is in good hands and I'm sure everyone will benefit!
Good work on all the uploads benji, not just now but over the years. [/thumbsup]

Info: Mammoth 38 song set from Frank and the Catholics. Very decent sound quality throughout. So hard to make things out is cut in the middle as the minidisc is changed out. There are numerous cuts between tracks after that as taper obviously paused recording to quarantee all the gig was recorded. Some tracks missing couple seconds off beginning and/or end because of this. Set includes "I Will Run After You" which was very rarely performed in 2001.
