I've always liked P.F. Sloan's 'Eve Of Destruction.' It's the performance by the singer, Barry McGuire, and, um, I would say it's also the chord progression and melody.
More Quotes from Frank Black:
I think there are some band members extremely keen to start making a record, and there are others who are more cautious because they don't want to mess with the legacy. They may be afraid that if we make a mediocre record that it will still come out, because the money has been spent. That's fair enough.Frank Black

It's just, you gotta pay your dues if you want to sing the blues. Not that I've never paid dues in my life, but I just paid a lot in the last couple of years. What can I say It just gives your songs a whole lot more legitimacy. Or it causes you to write better songs or something, I don't know.

I remember at the time telling my therapist that it felt really good to be down, to be in pain or whatever. Because it was like 'Oh yeah, I am human.' Not that I was devoid of emotion before, but to go that far, that deep, it's like 'Wow, this is what it's like to be human.' In some sick way it felt good.

They're not too big on Thanksgiving up there. Our English tour manager, not really being familiar with the feast, did a nice thing and booked a private room for us to be served an American Thanksgiving. But they were these French-sized courses. It wasn't a bucket of mashed potatoes, the giant bird and piles of food. Instead it was like, 'And now, we present.. the pumpkin soup Voila' It was us and our crew so it was a little stiff.
