Here’s The Version of Psycho Killer featuring Arthur Russell on Cello That You Didn’t Know You Needed Until Now
Were you always like “I LIKE Psycho Killer by Talking Heads, but I just wish it had some more ominous cello playing in it”? Well, you’re in luck! Here is an outtake version of Psycho Killer featuring Arthur Russell playing cello and it is really, really good.
This is fantastic; not sure why it wasn’t included on the rerelease of ‘77. In addition to what can only be called “rock cello,” it features the better non-album second verse, and a better-sounding high-hat ride during the French-language bridge. Thanks, Fernie, for directing me to this. Amazing.
A very young Black Francis and Joey Santiago jamming in their UMASS-Amherst dorm room, pre-Pixies. Not sure who the keyboardist is.
I’ve been catching up on Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez’s amazing Locke & Key series of graphic novels (and they are great) before it all wraps up this summer. I was thinking it would make a really good TV show, but apparently Fox gave it a shot already and declined to pick up the series. Too bad.
This is very poorly written. I wish they’d just published more of the photographs she took than let try and write about her 1985 visit.

(This is my favorite, but Tumblr won’t let me publish it. Pretty sure Peter Chiarelli shit himself in his excitement.

Oh wow. This looks gorgeous.
Probably one of the best explanations for how depression feels that I’ve read. Check it out if you’ve ever told a friend or loved one to “just think positive thoughts!”
I’ve been singing the back half of this jingle to myself (didn’t remember the first verse, I just tacked the opening to Daddy Mac’s verse) for THE LAST 20 YEARS. And I don’t even like Sprite. RIP, Mac Daddy.
