The Cramps “Bad Music for Bad People”
The Cramps “Bad Music for Bad People” 1984. Today, October 21st, is Cramps frontman Lux Interior’s birthday (b. Erik Lee Purkhiser 1946 d. 2009). This album also perfect for the 10 day lead up to Halloween with creepy swampy surfy psychobilly punk.
“Bad Music for Bad People” is a compilation of previously recorded Cramps songs, including the awesome Hasil Adkins’ cover of “She Said” as well as Ronnie Cook’s “Goo Goo Muck.” “Human Fly” is one of my all-time favorite Cramps songs: shoutout to my friend Buzz of 91.7 WMSE’s Buzz’s Garage radio show – he uses it as his intro song every week.
Daily (maybe) pulls from the vault: 33-1/3, 45, 78, old, older, classic, new, good, bad. Subjective. Autobiographical. Occasionally putting a record up for sale.
