Am I reading this right, two tracks for Album 9 are recorded? Or Paz saying she put down some parts?

I read it as FBF saying that Paz recorded two lead vocals for a new album.
Not sure, because it was Google Translate.

Looks like that interview happened in June. Can't imagine much has changed since then, unless they've recorded more between the Summer Europe tour and this autumn US leg.

That could be the case, but I'm sure they also like some time off
(and Instagram photo's don't indicate anything else)

Yes, I think it's much more likely they took a vacation. I suppose then that the most recent update would be from Joey and Dave's youtube interview where they talk about Charles's desire to record demoes.

Yes, but I thought Joey meant to say: Charles likes to do demos [in general]
Not "he likes to do them now" but more a general approach he likes
Not sure, I've only listened once

Looks like Tom is in the US at recent shows. Gave Miles Mangino a Doggerel cake! More recordings/demos perhaps?

The lyrics are very country, which I thought at first listen, and I could easily imagine a honkey tonk steel petal all over the chorus.

a lot of good songs were put aside for Doggerel because they didn't fit the recipe of the record.

Explains his anger (or maybe extreme annoyance) at Tom for wanting to fart around with chicken scratches in the margins and half baked ideas instead of all the other songs in the notebook at the Number 9 session. No wonder it wound up on the roof.


I had a bad reaction to your public hobby writings.

Updated first post
Band picked 16 songs of the 40 demos
So there are 4 more Doggerel Session songs
(Not sure how complete of course)

That is very cool to know. Will be curious to see if they save them for alubm no. 9 or release them as B-sides

Yeah a stand alone single like Hear me out, would be nice
A (streaming) deluxe version of Doggerel with more songs would be a good option
To go along with the tour in 2023

I picked up on that in the latest Paz interview that got posted. There is still at least one BTE song (Grow Fins) that is still to appear.

Taking

Bam Thwok
Ain't that pretty at all
Women of war
Hear me out
Mambo Sun
Grow Fins
Que sera sera
Human Crime

we are already over half way to a Pixies 2.0 Bside record

Hopefully we get to hear these extra 4 from the Doggerel sessions one day (along with Super Lecker of course )

I also recall from the Pixies podcast that they were working on Caught in a Dream at the official BTE sessions, but unsure if it ever got finished.

Grow Fins would be a Captain Beefheart cover, no?

Yes that's correct, I remember it being mentioned on the BTE podcasts (can't recall if there is an actual clip of it). My list was only meant to be songs that we are certain there are recordings of. The three you mention

Los Muchateros
The whole of the law
Alice prinn

I recognise from those old threads on BMI entries. But we do know for certain they are finished tunes in the vault?

Always interested to hear about 'Alice Prinn'. Do we know what sessions this was recorded in?

Wonder if 'Down in Toulon' made it past the demo stage too. The band brought it up a few times (nearly playing it for a short performance) in the run up to Head Carrier.

Picpic says in that thread:
Toulon & Drive have been recorded. They were on this chart from the "Pixies 2016" trailer back in January. B-Sides maybe ?

One of those could be Silver Bullet (which was recorded for Head Carrier, and had new drums for BTE)

Bogman turned into Long Rider

Thank you Bill for the links

Where do O Little Cloud, The Wolves Came Out, and… can’t remember, fit into the chronology?

Cloud, Wolves and Um Chagga Lagga were a happy Halloween from blackfrancis.net around 2014 (not too sure of the year) - demos with Jeremy Dubs on drums.

The file name was 'Super Lecker Mastered' so presume there's an albums worth of demos from then. Funny just posted in the abandoned projects then saw this! I'm sure Cloud has been recorded by Pixies - I remember a BF post on social media with Pixified music of cloud. I've tried to find it recently but no luck, maybe I invented it ha, though I still really would love to hear any version of O Little Cloud.
