God Damn Rock 'N' Roll: A Tribute To The Cramps

A fun listen. Of course, the Cramps did all these songs so well, it's hard to see why you need to hear these mostly fairly faithful versions. Cramps songs tended to the simplistic so there's nothing here the bands can't handle and most of the songs would be hard to make sound bad if they tried. So mostly, you just get an extra little bit of fuzz here, maybe a newly cranked up guitar part there. Still fun to hear bands like the Supersuckers, Jesus & Mary Chain, Hellbillies and others, including a good chunk of unknowns tear through some great tunes by a great band.

Yeah, it's been treating me well.

I have to admit that I'm still not crazy about American Beauty, though.

I'm trying to undo all the damage done by Skeletons in the Closet overexposure in high school, but it's a slow process.

Does the US version have a different version of Oh My God?

I tried to find somebody of that sort that I could like that nobody else did - because everybody would adopt his group, and his group would be _it_; someone weird like Captain Beefheart. It's no different now - people trying to outdo ! each other in extremes. There are people who like X, and there are people who say X are wimps; they like Black Flag.
