586. Pixies - come on pilgrim

I'm 32 and didn't get turned on to the Pixies until "Trompe le Monde" came out - I remember buying that for my then girlfriend Sarah - she had "surfer rosa" and "doolittle". I had heard those two thanks to her (she had great taste in music and I owe a lot of what I listen to to her) but for some reason skipped over this e.p. I ended up getting this at a mall in Florida, Meadows was probably present, and it must have been 1994. Anyway, this disc is also pretty great - Black Francis sang a few tracks in spanish because he liked the way it sounded, and the band were just getting started... contains the great "Caribou", "Vamos", "Ed is dead" and "Levitate me".
