I am compiling 3 x CD’s of nearly all serviceable FB related covers in the format of tandem tracks, original first followed by the relevant FB/FB+C or PIXIES* cover version, etc. as follows:
[have revamped the track-listing from my previous entry btw]


VOL.1

1-2.THIS IS WHERE I BELONG (the kinks, fb)
3-4.BETTER THINGS (the kinks, fb)
5-6.JUST A LITTLE (the beau brummels, fb)
7-8.RE-MAKE/RE-MODEL (roxy music, fb)
9-10.SLEEP (donovan, fb+c)
11-12.I’M GOIN’ DOWN (bruce springsteen, fb+c)
13-14.DO NOTHING (the specials, fb+c)
15-16.THE BIG HURT (nick cave, fb+c)
17-18.BREATHLESS (otis blackwell, fb & the stax pistols)
19-20.HANDY MAN (del shannon, fb & tfc)
21-23.SISTER ISABELLE (del shannon, fb & tfc, fb+c)

11-12.BELLE ISLE (bob dylan, fb+c)
13-14.DUKE OF EARL (gene chandler, fb heelo recording club)
15-16.MOTHER POPCORN (james brown, fb)
17-18.HANG ON TO YOUR EGO (the beach boys, fb)
19-20.SUGAR DADDY (john cameron mitchell, fb)
21-23.THE BLACK RIDER (tom waits, fb+c bld no.1, fb+c bld no.2)

VOL.3

1.IN HEAVEN* (peter ivers/david lynch)
2.WILD HONEY PIE* (the beatles)
3.BORN IN CHICAGO* (the paul butterfield blues band)
4.I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU* (neil young)
5.WINTERLONG* (neil young)
6.EVIL HEARTED YOU* (the yardbirds)
7.HEAD ON* (the jesus and mary chain)
8.I CAN’T FORGET* (leonard cohen)

While this may or may not be a legal exercise? Can people let me know what they think of the idea and/or if there is any desire out there for VOL.1/2/3? Guaranteed to make for an interesting listen anyway...

It's an interesting list, but legal -probably not if you start to send it to people. I'm not sure. I think there are shitloads of cover versions of at least the Pixies songs in the internet, but most of them are lousy live versions or humouristic stuff.. I've heard a version of Where is my mind? translated in dutch.. Translated versions could be funny though. Me and my friends translated some FB lyrics once (drunk) in finnish and those versions were pretty cool..

Now I'm just employed

Don't forget to include Papa Roach's version of Gouge Away...no, just kidding. Maybe you should forget the covers of Pixies/Frank Black songs and just do songs Frank and the Pixies have covered.

Dave, you should ban this guy. He keeps spamming the forum for his obscure tribute albums and it's quite annoying.
