This eight-track mini-album was the Pixies’ gritty, violent, and chaotic first offering to the world. Come On Pilgrim features classic Pixies staples including "Nimrod’s Son", "The Holiday Song" and "Caribou".
In March 1987, the Pixies recorded 18 songs over the course of three days. The demo, dubbed 'The Purple Tape', was given to key players within the Boston music community and the international alternative scene, including Ivo Watts-Russell, the head of 4AD. Impressed with the cassette, Watts signed the band and released eight of the demo's songs as the EP 'Come On Pilgrim' in 1987.
Heavyweight vinyl produced by 4AD in 2004.
