Cultural Facts:
-
Early Days: This WERS radio session happened before Pixies had even recorded their famous Purple Tape demo. The set already contained songs that would become Come On Pilgrim and Surfer Rosa, capturing the band before a record deal or international audience existed. (Spotify)
-
Family Ties: Soon after this performance, Black Francis borrowed $1,000 from his father to finance the band's first proper studio recordings. Francis later said his father had not been around much during his childhood and believed the financial help was partly his father's attempt to make up for lost time. That loan produced the demo that ultimately reached 4AD and changed the band's life. (Wikipedia)
-
Working Life: Only a couple of years before Pixies formed, Black Francis was working in a warehouse doing the wonderfully ordinary job of managing buttons for teddy bears while writing songs on an acoustic guitar and working on lyrics during subway rides. Within a few years, those ideas had carried him from warehouse work to one of Boston's most unusual new bands. (Wikipedia)

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
