Just wondering if anybody knows if Lyle Workman ever played on All My Ghosts live?
If so, when? And does any recording exist of it?
It's my favourite FB song and Lyle may be my favourite lead guitarist to have played with Frank so I was curious to find out if this ever happened. Apart from the first Catholics album I don't think I've ever heard this happen.
Thanks.

Heh. True.
To deepen your wonder, Stu, this is a quote from Lyle's site:
quote:
Lyle was enlisted as a member of Todd Rundgren’s group, recording “Nearly Human” (1989) and “Second Wind” (1991) touring the U.S and Japan. He recorded with Jellyfish for ”Spilt Milk” (1993), and from 94 to 98 began a string of records and tours with Pixies founder and creative force Frank Black. Some of the recordings include “Teenager of the Year” and “Frank Black and the Catholics”
Lyle toured in 98?! The Gigography says:

March 6, 1998 - Santa Barbara, CA, Coach House {co-headlining with John Doe}
March 7, 1998 - Santa Ana, CA, Galaxy Theater {co-headlining with John Doe}
et cetera, et cetera,..
I know there's a mention of when Rich Gilbert became a Catholic in one of the books some place.
I remember posting a comment about a sendmesomefb gig being maybe Lyle's last, but I can't seem to find it.
quote:
May 10, 1998 - Northhampton, MA, Pearl Street (incomplete) superabound / los angeles / all my ghosts / pong / czar / i gotta move / surf of mutilation / kicked in the taco / headache / six sixty six / abstract plain / dont ya rile 'em / adda lee / steak 'n' sabre
If you have this gig then does it sound like Lyle? I'd download it but Megaupload has gone tits up. |

Just checked, and this is All My Ghosts from the 1998 Northampton gig -- sound quality's not great:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3592022/music/FrankBlack-19980510-03.mp3
However, after scanning through some of the other songs, I finally found that he announces during Czar, prior to the extended guitar-wank outro... "Rich Gilbert". Sorry!

:) We'd be able to tell if it's Rich or Lyle just by comparing the length of each song alone.
There are early 98 recordings out there somewhere, Stu. Could this be the one??
quote:
2/25/98 Frank Black & The Catholics - Belly Up Tavern - Solana Beach, CA - inc
Superabound, You Ain't Me, Los Angeles, Do You Feel Bad About It, All My Ghosts, Whatever Happened To Pong?, Thalassocracy, Two Reelers, Adda Lee, Holiday Song, Kicked In The Taco, Solid Gold, Six Sixty Six, The Creature Crawling, Calistan, Headache, Czar, I Need Peace, Ten Percenter
quote:
>>When was the last time you played out?
A couple of weeks ago. We opened for Pearl Jam in the Northwest with our new guitar player [Rich Gilbert, formerly of Human Sexual Response]. He joined a few months ago; he's replacing Lyle. My agent and their agent are partners, so it might have been an inter-office kind of thing. Stone Gossard and Eddie Vedder I think are fans somewhat, and it may have come from them. I think the vibe on their whole tour has been obscure bands that they like from Seattle or wherever, or bands who were around before them.

This was recorded? Where could I get this?
Also, I'm liking the brown text for All My Ghosts. Very apt.
