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! |

Would these by full-band type arrangements, or more like a solo, acoustic type of thing?

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

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. |
