Or, I should say we're opening for Black Francis. His new albums are really swell. Anyway, I figure there are some Frank Black/Pixies fans on here that might like to hear a fellow jammer is making some musical progress.....finally. Wish me luck.

    What are some of his better solo albums? I have all the Pixies stuff and was looking to get some of his solo stuff.

    His first solo album is as fun as Trompe Le Monde. "Los Angeles" and "Hold on to Your Ego" are great. Also I think he slips some metal in there too.

    good luck. that's huge. even if you play a 100 capacity dive, a frank black gig is a resume in itself. you're officially on your way.

    i'm certainly in the minority, but on a desert island, i'll take teenager of the year over any pixies studio album.

    Bluefinger
    Black Letter Days
    Teenager of the Year
    Honeycomb

    These are all essential albums on any good cd shelf, I'm not too keen on Fast Man/Raider Man but thats the only album I've heard by him that didn't click with me.:)
    The albums performed with the Catholics tend to be a bit more rocking than the albums just under the monicker of Frank Black as a rule of thumb.
    Can not be arsed with life no more.
