Frank Black Covers Pixies Classic On Live EP, Tours Europe
Replaces Kim Deal with Derek Smalls; only Kelley notices
[Posted Monday, September 8th, 2003 03:40:00 Pitchfork Central Time]
John L. Ferrer reports:
So, we let ya'lls know that Frank Black and the Catholics' new joint Show Me Your Tears plops like Jackson Pollock spatters all over this fine land this Tuesday, but the newswire just caught wind that certain indie retailers will also have a five-song EP fronted by album cut "Nadine" and backed with four live tracks recorded last April at the State in Regina, located in the lovely and wheat-filled province of Saskatchewan, Canada. And yes, that last cut is indeed the Pixies classic "Gouge Away." Tracklist:
01 Nadine
02 Hermaphroditos [live]
03 Los Angeles [live]
04 Jane The Queen Of Love [live]
05 Gouge Away [live]
Notice that we said only certain indie retailers will stock the Nadine EP-- that's because the retailers got together and actually licensed this material from SpinART themselves. A complete list of locations where the EP will be available is posted on SpinART's website.
And speaking of the Pixies, 4AD has announced that BBC 6 Music will be celebrating the release of Show Me Your Tears with two special programs next week. On September 15th, they're airing a live Pixies show recorded at the Glastonbury Festival way back on June 16th, 1989. We keep trying to use the Pitchfork time machine to go back and visit that show, but something always fucks up and we end up catching The Wonder Stuff, so I'm really glad they're re-airing that one. Then on September 16th, BBC 6 will be airing a Black solo appearance on Steve Lamacq's "Evening Session," originally recorded last June. Both shows will be archived on the BBC 6 website for a week after their initial airdates.
If you want to catch Frank Black and his mighty Catholics in support of Show Me Your Tears, you can catch him on his extensive overseas tour kicking off later this month, following some warm-up gigs in the intimate back room of Los Angeles-area guitar shop McCabe's. There may be more American dates coming up next winter-- so watch the skies, or maybe your local Blimpie. The dates:
