Pixies "Doolittle" Tour Tee 1989

The Pixies' Doolittle (1989) is one of the most influential albums in rock history — Kurt Cobain cited it as the direct inspiration for Nirvana's Nevermind. The loud-quiet-loud dynamic that defines alternative rock was codified here. 4AD/Elektra produced limited promotional merchandise for a band that, despite their influence, never had the commercial success of their disciples. Original Doolittle tour tees are among the rarest American alternative rock artifacts. Value: $500–$1,800.
