Pixies
Most Surprising Favorite Artist
[Black Francis]
Paolo Conte. That's mine.
[Joey Santiago]
The '60s Bee Gees.
[Black Francis]
Oh yeah. Very dark. Dark recordings. Trafalgar.
[Joey Santiago]
So good.
[David Lovering]
I don't know, tough one. Steely Dan, but I mean c'mon.
[Black Francis]
Oh yeah, we all love the Steely Dan. Everybody in the Pixies loves Steely Dan actually. They get a bad rap sometimes. These hipsters, they don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
[Joey Santiago]
It's the history of recording that they don't understand. It just shifted right at 'em. It just pa-boom. In a good way. A very good way. They were meticulous. You could hear screwdrivers just turning around.
