Originally posted by NemesioWhat I value about The Cramps is their style -- the names, the look, the humour, the dirty stomping sex beat, it all comes together a treat. It never fails to throw the right switches and bring me out in a bug-eyed jangling boogie fever.

Ah, but, The Gun Club were pretty good as well.
I'm hoping a copy of Jeffery Lee Pierce's 'autobiography' will materialise in a bookshop near me soon.

Originally posted by znshoI guess Jeffrey Lee was a bit fat and bloated. But that doesn't narrow it down much. Send me a PM, I'm genuinely curious.
