These represses feature newly remastered audio with engineer Kevin Vanbergen having returned to the band's original analogue tapes to deliver stunning new masters that reveal more layers to these much-loved records.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBossanova is the third Pixies album. The band continued to work with Gil Norton after collaborating to such success on their platinum-selling second album Doolittle. Their third album in as many years, 1990 was a particularly fertile time for the band with Kim Deal also having success with The Breeders, who released their debut album Pod just a few months prior. Featuring the singles 'Allison' (a tribute to jazz and blues pianist Mose Allison), 'Dig For Fire' and 'Velouria', plus the first cover to feature on one of their albums 'Cecilia Ann' (originally by The Surftones), Bossanova showed a less primal side to the band, with surf and space rock rising to the fore. Lyrically, Black Francis is even more cryptic with a recurring sci-fi theme running throughout, which in turn influenced Vaughan Oliver's classic planet design for the sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Cecilia Ann\u003cbr\u003e2 Rock Music\u003cbr\u003e3 Velouria\u003cbr\u003e4 Allison\u003cbr\u003e5 Is She Weird\u003cbr\u003e6 Ana\u003cbr\u003e7 All Over the World\u003cbr\u003e8 Dig for Fire\u003cbr\u003e9 Down to the Well\u003cbr\u003e10 The Happening\u003cbr\u003e11 Blown Away\u003cbr\u003e12 Hang Wire\u003cbr\u003e13 Stormy Weather\u003cbr\u003e14 Havalina\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MATADOR DIRECT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52110827716909,"sku":"PIXIES-BOSSANOVA-REMASTER-LP-0316","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0711\/2910\/4685\/files\/4518772-3607599.jpg?v=1780581848","url":"https:\/\/shop.altpress.com\/products\/pixies-bossanova-lp-remaster","provider":"Alternative Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
