THE CRAMPS MEGAPOST - Part 4 of 4

25 - [2011] Live At Club 57!! 1979 (Plus 9 Demos! 1977-79)

CD, Partially Unofficial Release.

Tracks 01 - 13 recorded live at Club 57, NYC for/by radio station WPIX-FM.

Killer set of 22 songs, including an incredible 13-song live set recorded in 1979 with professional mixes for WPIX-FM NYC with full sonic assault! Probably the best Cramps live performance and recording ever, with Bryan & Ivy's guitars complimenting each other most brilliantly, Nick Knox's drumming is superb, and Lux providing great vocals and between-song banter. The version of "Human Fly" is like an a-bomb exploding in your living room! The top-quality sound on the 9https://we.tl/t-hrfxASdqRS demos that complete this CD have previously appeared on 1 or 2 reissues with inferior sound quality so get ready to hear them properly.

28 - [2017] KFAT- FM Broadcast The Keystone Palo Alto CA 1st February 1979 (Remaster)

CD, Unofficial Release.

The Cramps quickly became one of America’s finest subculture manifestations, bred from the madness of 50s and 60s b-movie trash at the turn of punk, Lux Interior and his motley crew of proto-gothic punks shred the walls of Keystone’s Palo Alto with a toxic stew of sexed up rock ‘n’ roll. They were an exotic cabaret of b-movie histrionics and debonair, pursuing lurid and sexual gratification. Lux Interior personified, and externalized what lurked behind the snarl of every rockabilly hero and even in death, wears it well. In Elvis’ strut, in James Dean’s wince, somewhere in the back of Little Richard’s throat was the Cramps… drooling all over your face and walking away with your soul.

The entire KFAT–FM broadcast of this legendary early performance by The Cramps live at Keystone’s Palo Alto from February 1979. Captured in their grizzly, diabolical prime and before the release of their debut Songs The Lord Taught Us.

Has also been released as the following unofficial releases:
