Hello, everyone! Lately, I have been considering doing some Frank Black/Black Francis covers. I figure it will be a way to keep me busy over the coming weeks. I've yet to come up with songs to work on, however. That's where I need your help. I need 15 songs. They could be any that he has worked on throughout his career (including Pixies, Frank Black, the Catholics, Black Francis, Paley & Francis, and any other collaborations).

I'll pick out the ones that I like the most and begin work on them. Each new cover will be posted on the forums over the next few weeks.

Thank you very much!

Good luck with your efforts.

Off the top of my head, here are some that would seem somewhat challenging:

Whatever Happened To Pong?

(Do What You Want) Gyaneshwar

Western Star

Jesus Was Right

Two Spaces

Kicked In The Taco

Dog Sleep

Southbound Bevy

Pie In The Sky

Well, I don't know if I would be a fair judge of that. I'll give them my best shot, that I can guarantee.

The covers would be solo/acoustic with multiple instruments and tracks.
