Dammit. Farewell Dix Denney...thank you for the wonderful music and the rocking live shows. The punk rock scene will never be the same. Destroy All Music in the next realm!
The weirdos said seeing The Damned at the Starwood club in West L.A. was a big moment for them. Well, The Weirdos were one of the first L.A. Punk bands I saw at that same Starwood (still got the flyer--June 1977). Their singles and the Who? What? When? Where? Why? EP were absolute keepers. I used to see used copies of this CD in record stores, but unsure of what it might sound like after the band's long hiatus, I passed. That was a mistake. Their older, the music's matured and is a little more produced, but it's still The Weirdos, full of verve and spunk. I cheated myself by not checking it out sooner--better late than never.
Well said. One of my favorite bands since I first heard them in maybe 81? Didn’t get to see them live till this record came out early 90’s I believe. Such a good show. And was great to see all the songs I grew up with live with the newer stuff at the time. I think they didn’t skip a beat. Picked up right where they left off. R.I.P. Dix Denny.
I saw them a few times during the early 90's reunion, once with The Skulls opening and another with them opening for The Cramps and RHCP on New Years Eve. They ripped every time!
Growing up in LA in the 80s was a blur of good times great bands and a never ending party. a its kinda like that here now but due to being old . its not as fun... But i can see the younger people going for it like
It'd be pretty easy to teach this album as part of history. The history of rock n roll and rhythm and blues pretty much covers all of U.S. history, from African slavery, to Irish & Chinese immigration, Native American decimation, and Dutch/Spanish/French/English colonization all the way to the modern age. In order to understand punk, you need to understand rock and in order to under rock you need to understand gospel, blues and folk music. This music was created in our darkest days in a desire to express artistic freedom despite human bondage, government and foreign oppression, war, and the overwhelming nature of humanity to enforce conformity.
Not really that punk rock but, it's a great off-kilter rock (and rockabilly) record. I'm sure that you know that their 70s material was twice as fast as the tunes on "Condor".
Saw these guys open for the Circle Jerks around the time this was released. It was the Jerks' 10th anniversary tour and sadly, most of the "hardcore" crowd (myself included) weren't familiar with the Weirdos and didn't pay much attention to them. Only later, after checking out the first "Weird World" compilation (released around the same time as "Condor") did I realize what I was missing.
There are many computer aps that allow you to record what is being played (i.e. on THIS page for example). Then you can use other aps to do what you want with the file that you saved after you have recorded the audio from this page. Make sense?

Bought this from a dollar store in the late 90s. Used to be my showering CD.

Wow I never seen this upload before. Thank you so much. The best LA Punk band ever along with the Germs and the Screamers.
Glad you like it, Terry.

Category educational? Man! I would have stayed in school if this was a required course! Growing up in Los Angeles in the 80s,it should have been!

I think I bought this in the discount bin in the early 90’s at Camelot records in the Macon Mall. Fantastic punk tunes omg!

Discazo. Gracias, Maximo Mas.
LOVE this album.
Top ten album in my book
This is seriously good.
1st listen and I have always liked Weirdos so I'm not surprised I like it.
Tubas shooting rays of animation. Best lyric ever.

Saw them on same tour in Detroit.
This tour was my introduction to them (1990). Saw them in Houston. Blown away.
This whole album is a big ass bird with no feathers on it's head flying down to eat your livestock

Anyone know where I can download this? It's not even on spotify

Good music, horrible album cover. Early Weirdo's are the best but this stuff is ok.
