By Popular Demand - The Return of The Cramps
Last Saturday I played the Cramps and invited suggestions for a new Saturday series. The only suggestion forthcoming was from the Robster who suggested more Cramps.
So for one week only here they are again with a couple of tracks from their live album Smell of Female recorded at The Peppermint lounge, New York City on February 25th and 26th 1983.
As well as Lux and Ivy the line-up is completed by Kid Congo Powers on guitar and Nick Knox on drums
I remembered that this was on 45rpm but knowing The Cramps I suspect it would have sounded pretty good at 33rpm.
Something different perhaps next Saturday
The Cramps - Thee Most Exhalted Potentate of Love
The Cramps - You've Got Good Taste

This album/12? was a Scooterboy staple. Great stuff for a Saturday. I feel a Cramps fest coming on this long weekend
ReplyDeleteVery good. What about a new series (I see you ignored my last suggestion) about charity shop purchases that will be re-charitied?
ReplyDeleteWas that your lat suggestion? Don't recall seeing it
Delete"Music from my brother's far superior record collection" was the first one. But I think I'd prefer a series of "records so poor they had to be re-vharitied".
DeleteGreat band and as that badge shows, one of the greatest band logos ever.

A one-episode series? A great concept. Sounds like a new series to me... Thanks for the acknowledgememnt too.
ReplyDeleteHey. How about Travel Saturday? Take us to different places for the weekend.

DeleteAlthough the Robster has given me another idea ........
