frank black and the catholics loreley rockpalast

[@jlunch]

Wow, just wow. What a great set! How is Lyle Workman not more well known? The guy is a fantastic player and he sounds like nobody else. For that matter, how is Frank Black not universally recognized as being the best singer/songwriter of an entire generation? Of course that's subjective but he's easily my favorite.

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

This performance is totally golden. Guitar heaven

[@xTheOxx]

I've had an eye out for Lyle's work since I first heard Teenager, but he took a different route. He did a lot of film music for Judd Apatow comedies.

[@cod8140]

Man I couldn't agree more!!!

[@chrisknight3734]

Lyle's lead work on the "Frank Black & The Catholics" album is up there with the greats

[@FaxanaduJohn]

J Carl Johnson Frank and Curt Kirkwood in my humble estimation!

[@jacktheripper8522]

LYLE WORKMAN RULES FANTASTIC!!!! THE GUITAR

[@XylenRoberts]

I wish Eric Drew Feldman would have still been a part of their lineup at this point. His keyboard embellishments on those first two records are part of what made those albums so unique, along with Frank Black's genius songwriting and compositional strength obviously.

[@gonzobtrappin1911]

Dude the keyboards took Frank's genius to an entirely new level.

[@texanbill6032]

Some of the songs in this set are better than the studio versions. Hats off to Lyle, amazing guitar work. 👍

[@jlunch]

Telecaster through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier is not something you hear every day. Lyle Workman sounds absolutely awesome in this show.

[@someonesomebody304]

J Carl Johnson - Lyle is a genius. I remember finding his email address not long after he left the Catholics. I sent him a message and he was nice enough to reply and chat a bit about his work. As a guitarist myself (not saying I'm a good one by any means), Lyle's solo and melodic runs are works of art. He certainly doesn't get the credit he deserves.

[@pauldsheppard126]

I literally welled up with happy emotion from start to finish 😅 Beautiful. ❤

[@ulsimitsuki]

What an amazing gig. Frank Black indeed is one of the best rock musicians ever.

[@1q1o1t1s1a1]

I'd like to think that the crowd is so bewildered by this awesome, outlandish sounding music that they become entranced, unable to move, as they welcome this alien space-ship to planet Earth.

[@robertbuckley1503]

Dude at @30:26 getting caught singing then smiling is the most wholesome thing I've seen on the internet all week.

[@eddiegalon3714]

this was so awesome. thank you so much for this. God the 90's were the greatest time for alternative music. I was at the perfect age, my 20's. Frank Black was a major sorce of joy for me back then. What a great band, for those that just love Tele hard rock. Love it!!!!

[@BlueHopi144]

saw him as well in 95/96 in Belgian Festivals !! and in 89/90 ( twice ) with the Pixies at their beginnings . Fantastic discovery .....

[@BamThwok76]

Thanks for posting this. Multiple eargasms. My all-time favourite artist by far. Saw them live in this era. Need to track him down again while I can...

[@Beezlethorp]

people just didn't realize the genius in front of them...

[@maxheadroom3000]

No they just German lol 👍🏼

[@pauldsheppard126]

Ppl were different back then. In a way more inhibited, in other ways more real *)

[@puppetmode]

seen him a few times and blew me away every time. Genius!

[@nebnep]

Excellent performance! Charles' voice is amazing in this gig!

[@michaelrice4894]

[@FaxanaduJohn]

Pray a Little Faster live is an especial treat.

[@chrisknight3734]

@@FaxanaduJohn Agreed!

[@aliparis1786]

Putain quelle claque magistrale, tu veux du rock beh tiens ! Where was I in 1996... Kiff kiff kiff un rêve merci Franck

[@WillfulSoul143]

Very nice. Thanks for posting. I liked the scenic shots and the huge jug of tub brew being passed around by the dudes in the crowd about three quarters into the show. Straight ahead rock'n'roll. Damn Charles can scream! Good to hear Cult of Ray stuff again, too.

[@AmateurBlonde]

Face completely melted. Frank black's vocal chords are a giant leather fucking whip.

[@BlueHopi144]

phenomenal range he has ....still Rocking deep in 2022 . U got to find the concert they gave in Koln ( Germany ) in July 2022 - recorded by Pros of Rockpalast . Phenomenal set list - the best in 30 years . Frank is enjoying himself .

[@dizzyhole666]

Frank Black has never given a fuck about what anyone thinks. 34 year career of zero fucks given. God bless him

[@pauldsheppard126]

Indeed. God bless that man. He is more beautiful than even he knows. ❤

[@aljustal6554]

That punkish opening with back to back "Whatever Happened to Pong/Thallasocracy" is exactly how Frank's second solo album "Teenager Of The Year" starts out.

[@EdwoodCA]

Yeahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Thanks for posting this!!!

[@Jacksmusicshack]

Wow lyle workman is crazy good!

[@andrew7911]

What an amazing performance of Headache

[@user-pf9cc7iq9s]

Holy freak. The lead guitarist is on FIRE. All over that fret board. Not to mention frank, in the element.

[@blandinejupette]

How he rules... Love this guy.

[@Dmyra]

much charisma! such rockstar!!

[@demonicsweaters]

I was lucky enough to see this exact lineup and pretty similar setlist around this time. Was a great show. Honestly the Catholics live were almost better than the Pixies. Don't get me wrong, I love the Pixies too, but as a live band, The Catholics always brought their A-game.

[@GauntLife]

10:15 LMAO! YESS!!!!

[@phildanus6962]

Ikr

[@Stephuzz]

fuck yeah never seen him like that

[@bamugs1130]

Fuck yeah!!!

[@joetoe9207]

Way....ahead of his time. So overlooked.

[@pauldsheppard126]

Imo he's actually outside of time completely *)

[@44batbat]

Thank you very much for posting :)

[@adambarrah5036]

AMAZING

[@weaselsuit]

Throw rocks at me if you must, but his first two solo records were better than anything the Pixies ever did.

[@betinho1126]

Couldn't agree more. In fact the only pixies record I like as much as franks golden age solo stuff is bossanova

[@albertfish69]

+weaselsuit i think ALL of his solo records beat the shit out of anything the pixies ever did. dog in the sand may be the best thing hes done but its all so good its hard to say.

[@gilmour6754]

i love the pixies but franks solo work is way better imo. black letter days is one of my top 5 records of all time

[@dbuschman1]

i agree fully. almost never listen to pixies but fb and the catholics over and over and over and makes me laugh with its artistic brilliance!

[@BRUNOAZIZ]

cool, but.....its not a competion man! ;)

[@invertabrae]

18:11 best scream in Rock and Roll hands down!

[@FaxanaduJohn]

Girl clapping unsurely at 28:45 during Jesus Was Right is arguably the best part of the show.

[@mikerice4547]

O.M.G. fb & los Catholicos- Reunion2022!!!

[@jjamo5]

Thanks mate!

[@TheManamba]

Frank Black is a master in his genre, and Teenager is his masterpiece

[@stephanebourriaud2469]

Good Guys 🤘

[@McDutchie]

@24:31 Frank skipped a line, confusing the band…

[@scottmgagnon]

Los Angeles is such a ripping song

[@jjamo5]

10.18 Los Angles :D

[@CAKmusic]

Say what you want about the album they were promoting at the time, they still put on one helluva live show.

[@neviatha]

The Cult of ray is a classic in it's own right!
