The Jesus and Mary Chain cover!

      Not that you asked, :) but my first Pixies exposure was a used cassette I found in my local record shop, around 1987 or 1988. I bought it to check them out, since I’d read their name in a couple of magazines by then and hated them at first. Black Francis’ voice was so grating, I thought. Somehow, I heard something worth sticking with though so I gave Doolittle a couple more tries. Long story short, I’ve loved them ever since. Jumping to now, I’m not a huge fan of the recent post-Kim Deal music, but they’re still in my top 5 bands overall.

      I’m glad to see there are still a few folks who still like them.
