any thoughts on FB singing on gordon gano's new album? the track is called run and its a hum dinger a la the ramones. kinda makes me think that the pixies would sound like that if they were around today. agree?
I read in the new cooking vinyl news letter that Frank tries to sounds just like Gordon Gano, but when I hear it, it just sounds like Frank Black or maybe more like Black Francis. Was Gano ever such a sreamer? (I only know the Femmes debut...)
kinda still think that it sounds like what BF would be like today (IMHO) instead of the more mature FB - who still can yell (hermaphroditos springs to mind - or the amazing version of six sixty six he plays live these days. lordy!). love the track. the rest of the album is great too - gordon gano still has it. i also remember FB saying (somewhere!) that early pixies stuff was based on sounding a little like them (violent femmes) - as well as the more obvious examples (like husker du). anyway - nice for him to be included along with other greats like lou reed and john cale. rock on FB.
