Merchant: Townsend Music
Merchant's Category: music
Coinciding with a soldout tour, Pixies Live At TheBBC is being released on 4AD. Being pressed for thefirst time on vinyl, and also available on double CD.Between 1988 and 1991 during the bands 4AD years Pixies recorded six sessions for the BBC, five forJohn Peel and one for Mark Goodier. Catching the raw energy of the bands live performances, these sessions felt immediately noteworthy, timestamping a moment when Black Francis, Kim Deal, Joey Santiago and David Lovering were motoring out front.Among the twentyfour tracks they recorded in this period including two doubles Allison and Wave ofMutilation are favourites from minialbum Come On Pilgrim and three of their four 4AD studio albums.Also recorded were three covers reworks of The Beatles Wild Honey Pie, Eraserheads In HeavenLady In The Radiator Song and The Beach Boys Hang On To Your Ego, a track Black Francis covered a few years later on his debut Frank Black solo album.Originally released on CD in 1998, this reboot now sees all tracks from the six sessions included and presented in chronological order. Something fans have been asking for. Coming as both a black vinyl triple LP and double CD, the sleeve is also new, with a wonderful black and gold design by Chris Bigg now adorning it. A design that really stands out Chris pays loving tribute to the bands late visual director Vaughan Oliver, using unseen archival Pixies imagery by longtime collaborator Simon Larbalestier.
