Hey, there must be a devil between us, or whores in my head, whores at the door, whore in my bed, or even just the Pixies in my ear. After their furious for me "Indie Cindy" debacle, I'd think they're dead, now comes something very special - The madam among LPs. Doolittle is probably one of the best & most important music albums of the 20th century. Now, after a breakup, a reunion, an entire tour, in which only the music was played - 25 years later after the first publication - this album is again turned up loud and heard, felt, experienced, sang, luftgitarrenimitiert and celebrated with an anniversary edition. I see "We're Chained" and even if someday my Eyeballs sliced off are, I know: Here I have the right music. Doolittle 25 offers everything for the Pixiesfan, 22 demos, 13 Peel Sessions and finally the original album. For the original you have to waste any more words, except: Genial. Some songs on the discs 2 and 3 you already know from the B-sides or other publications, but most are new (see lower list). The Peel Sessions and demos provide for connoisseurs differences and possibly new favorites. Specifically Dead (Peel Session), I Bleed (Demo) or Wave of Mutilation (Peel Session) having particularly impressed me - first base, second base, third base, home run. You have just a little more rustic sound like and may be interested in how the songs have evolved over time. Presented the three discs in a cardboard envelope that looks nice, but very, very useless and destructive is it. With me have the CDs only have the take out scratches, which is a real shame. For this, I have to deduct a star, although of course the album deserved to be 5/5. Except for the packaging can not go wrong with almost 17 nothing. My wish for the next year then please Bossa Nova 25 and Trompe Le Monde 25 and pushes please Surfer Rosa nor after.
