Cramps - Live in Athens, Greece, Rodon club, Nov., 29, 1991 (@256)

Although the Cramps were not the best band in the world, they were unique in their own bizarre way. Their love for 50's rockabilly, 60's garage and 70's US punk all of which hold a significant part in their music, their obsession with horror b-movies, their trashy fetishist outfit and a large dose of explicit sexuality, summed up to give us a group that will hold a very special chapter in the history of rock'n'roll. But as for all the great bands of r'n'r era, their legend was largely drawn from their live performances. Lux as an demented Elvis, Poison Ivy as a b-movie femme fatale, with the other two members always selected from the large reservoir of semi-famous underground session musicians, were giving every night a document of their raw, psychotic, dirty, primitive, nihilist, sexual version of rock'n'roll. One of those performances is uploaded here. Farewell, Lux Interior.

P.S.1: For those that will wonder what those strange sounds are during Blow Up Your Mind, it is Lux destroying the hardboard floor of Rodon, and swallowing his microphone. During the same track I remember very vividly that Lux climbed near the club's roof through the side steel columns.
P.S.2: I'm waiting for your contribution on the two songs for which I wasn't able to find the title.
P.S.3 (update on June, 7): Dimitris, a reader of this blog, not only contributed on the two songs (see PS2), but he also sent me the blood-stained playlist of that night, which I uploaded. That's Lux's blood from when he was cut by the mic, Dimitris explains. Incredible, (sentimentally) valuable memorabilia. Thanks.
