| If the Pixies were going to take on a male bass player then Steve Hanley would be a top choice. |

My initial listen of Indie Cindy was all right. Some songs I liked, others were just there. Based on past experience with Frank's songwriting, I know my opinions could easily shift with time. But as a first listen, it felt more like a Frank Black solo album than a Pixies record, though there were moments where Joey's guitar really did sing in that Pixiesque way.

| Albini is beginning to look like Simon Cowell these days...which is fitting, they're both morons |

| I think Albini resents the Pixies because he violated his engineer-only ethos on Surfer Rosa, and he blames them. They were "four cows anxious to be led around by their nose rings" so it's not his fault. |

| Maybe Albini feels the same way BF does when asked by journos about that Kurt Cobain quote when he gets asked about the Pixies or Nirvana. I guess it would get boring after a while. |

What counts in the end is how great Surfer Rosa sounds. The only complaint I have is Albini convincing them to change I'm Amazed from the Purple Tape version. I like how it is on Surfer but when I heard the original version I couldn't believe they changed it. The Purple tape one is so much better.

I heard about him recanting. Surfer Rosa blew me away...oh, right...I was AMAZED, indeed Sprite at how good it was. First record from the Pixies I purchased.

| I guess the thing that bugs me is Albini is held up as this God like genius. On the other hand, Come on Pilgrim producer Gary Smith is barely acknowledged. |

| True. I dearly love all the Pixies albums but the ones I return to most are Trompe and Come on Pilgrim. |

I heard bits of Blue Eyed Hexe and Silver Snail in an episode of Top Gear, S21E03 in the trip through Ukraine.
And Velouria in the Patagonia Special. |

Another postable one from the same user !

Black Francis interview from 1991 about Trompe Le Monde.. Nice one.
About "Space I Believe In": Jefrey with one F is Eric Drew Feldman's older brother, he's an strange older guy who once jammed with Ravi Shankar. He sat in a studio on an oriental carpet, which becames a magic carpet. And his California license plate is D=RXT.

Funny, now I hear the tablas in Space I Believe In. Never noticed those before.
And I think I found a video of Jefrey with one F playing the tablas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sGr1OCSCFA.
He's... spacious.

Live at VPRO Studios, Holland 1988. I've seen clips of this before but never the whole thing. Good sound quality. Opening question in the interview bit - "Are you really as funny as your music?"
