I own all Pixies albums (except for 'Death to the Pixies') and I wonder what rare/unreleased songs there are. It seems to me that there isn't that many unreleased tracks on the internet.
I know that Nirvana, for example, has a ton of rare songs that you'll find with a little effort.
The only rare/unreleased (or what you should call 'em) tracks I've found are:
Boom-chicka-boom (Isn't there another title for this song)
Born In Chicago
I can't forget (Leonard Cohen Cover)
So, is there any other unreleased songs?
thanks. |

| I am no expert on rare Pixies stuff but I do know that Born in Chicago was released on the electra records fortieth anniversary double disc set. Hope that helps. |

| I've seen on Kazaa a whole lot and downloaded a track called Sandy's Bathroom from a concert. It doesn't sound like the Pixies at all, does anyone know if this is really the pixies or not. |

Yeah, I've seen that one too, but labeled as "fake" and "not by Pixies" so I suppose it's a fake... not sure thought.
thanks for the replies. |

| Sandy's Bathroom, that's gotta be a fake. There aren't a whole lot of Pixies tunes that haven't been released that are readily available. I believe I have all the available Pixies rare tunes in my MP3 collection on my other system. If you own all their albums, including "Complete B-Sides," then you have most of the tracks. There are probably a less than a dozen other songs that have been bootlegged (not counting alternate versions such as the BBC takes). |

Most of the "rare"pixies songs around p2p are fake or renamed files.I think that sandy's bathroom is a pixies song though 'cause i have both the live and the studio version and the last one seems like the pixies to me...Other fakes(don't bother to dl):
Al Sonata (rare instrumental?)
Photo Booth
Specify Gravity
Video Killed the Radio Star
Blowout Radiohead + The Pixies(it's a radio session with the Posies drummer actually)

| Sandy's Bathroom I know for a fact is NOT by the Pixies. It's by some weird French group called 'My Diet Pill.' |

the photo booth one is a band called subbluecollar i think, its not really a fake as such. its just winmx did that 'strong pixiesbreederskimdealsound thing to have some sort of reference point.

| there was a tape copy of a really early Pixies concert that my brother's friend from UVA had (how's that for apochryphal!) that had a cover of Voices Carry by Til Tuesday. Kim sang, Black Francis screamed out the refrain "Even downtown VOICES CARRYYYYY!" It was kinda funny, and I never really thought about it until a few years ago when someone brought up the topic of Pixies covers and such. I wish I had thought to copy it, but I guess for now I'll just contribute to the greater Pixies mythology. |

| Does anyone know a song called 'A total waste of time' or 'The worst in me'. I'm sure it's not Pixies, but I found it as a 'Pixies [rare] - Untitled' song. I'm looking for the answer for 2,5 years now. It is very Pixies inspired, you hear a Kim bassloop, a Joey guitarsound, and a (non-screaming this time) Black Francis.......maybe I just listened to it too many times. But if anyone knows the answer, plz help! |

| Sorry, I didn't know somebody already had the name. But I just went to the 'my profile' page to edit it, but that's not possible. Can someone tell me how to change it? |

I'll make a new account when I post something new, I don't mind. Sorry for all the problems, I'm using this name for about 2 years, and so it was the first choice for me to use on the forum (I registered to the forum only a few months ago). But I didn't know someone else used almost the same name.
But if there's somenone who can answer the question of the rare song, please do :-)
Bye

You are IAmUnChienAndalusia, be IAmUnChienAndalusia, If that name was taken already, the sign on screen would have told you. Be strong!

Hi MunChienAndalusia. Sorry for the late reaction. I have seen your website and you're a much more fanatic collector & forum poster than me. The name is all yours, I understand it looks kinda weird when there are 2 chiens.
If someone has the privileges to change usernames, could you change mine into 'Dingetje' ? I already checked for another Dingetje, so I hope this solves the problem.
Bye :) |

Check my trade page (http://www.rappard.dds.nl) - there is a rarities compilation on there which pretty much contains all of the studio stuff not found on bootlegs (Rough Diamonds, BSF3, Give Me Ecstasy, etc.).

One can NEVER have enough Pixies bootlegs!:)
BTW: inaccurate choice of words, "bootlegs" implies commercial gain, I use "CD-Rs" exclusively on my page.
