Members Snufkino Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 Off the Bone, and Songs the Lord Taught Us. And as much as I love them, too much Cramps can get fairly tedious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fretmonster Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 "Psychedelic Jungle" was always my favorite. As far as DVDs, I hear they actually did a concert in an insane asylum. Love to see that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Muddslide Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 One of my favorite bands ever. With the possible exception of Iggy, Lux Interior is The Greatest Rock And Roll Frontman I know of. Witness: [YOUTUBE]HrbTkNwbUz8[/YOUTUBE] If I was going to tell someone where to start off with them, the Off The Bone comp is a great one, but Bad Music For Bad People is also excellent and possibly easier/cheaper to find stateside. The live album Rockinandreelininaucklandnewzealand is pretty phenomenal, as is the (also live) Smell of Female. Honestly, I'm not sure you can go wrong just diving in anywhere and blindly picking up an album or two, but as far as studio recordings go, you might start with Songs the Lord Taught Us and Psychedelic Jungle. Both killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Muddslide Posted October 20, 2010 Members Share Posted October 20, 2010 As far as DVDs, I hear they actually did a concert in an insane asylum. Love to see that one. Yup. Live at Napa State Mental Institution, 1976. Sound and video quality are {censored}, but it's a cool document of a bizarre show for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cratz2 Posted October 21, 2010 Members Share Posted October 21, 2010 Even when I was in my punk phase, I was never that crazy about The Cramps. I actually find them a bit more palatable now than back in the day, probably because they seem to be a lot better in their live youtube clips than in their studio stuff. My singer/bassist was a HUGE Cramps fan though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
