The Pixies are celebrating the 25th birthday of “Doolittle”聽 by聽putting out a three-disc deluxe edition of the classic 1989 album. 聽I’m such a geek about this kind of stuff. 聽With the actual music being so readily available on the internets these days, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE when bands put some hard work and thought in to fans that actually enjoy going out and buying stuff.

Not this much. 聽NOBODY likes buying stuff this much.
So this bad boy is LOADED with rarities and demos.聽 The first bonus disc is filled with B-sides and Peel Sessions from the Pixies’ “Doolittle” era, while the second bonus disc features TWENTY TWO聽demo recordings, many of which have never been released before. 聽I’m sure some of these are terrible. 聽I mean, they were left off the album for a reason. 聽BUT, as I mentioned before, I’m a total geek for this kind of thing. 聽The demos are 聽in the same order as the original album, giving usa peek聽at an early version of “Doolittle”. You wont get the “Frank Black as drawn by Jon Smith in MSPAINT though. That mofo is one of a kind.) 聽This version is called 聽“Doolittle 25”, and it is available at PixiesMusic.com.
