On Episode 08 of the show, Rich returns!
We chat for a while about some television we've been watching recently (and some old associations with it).
We then move onto the meat of the episode - a discussion of the early (1987-1992) recording career of the utterly seminal US Alt Rock band The Pixies. We meanderingly traverse their discography, pick out some track highlights, and debate what the band meant to us and what they mean to us now!

The 1988 Simon Reynolds piece on The Pixies I refer to in the show can be read here. The 1989 interview with Black and Deal can be watched here. And, for the curious and bold... here is the music video for 'Sign O' The Times' by Prince.
