"I got 96 tears and 96 eyes" is one of the greatest lines in rock and roll. This lineup of The Cramps included Bryan Gregory on the fuzziest of fuzz guitars. For more along this line the album "Songs The Lord Taught Us" , with a LOT of the songs on there perfect for a Halloween mix-tape.
The term you're looking for to describe the guitar is rockabilly. Heavy reverb and slap back delay on those guitars. Not too disimilar from the guitar tone surf rock guitarists. Rockabilly justs adds a country twang. Another fly song to check out would be I Am the Fly by Wire.
Friend of mine got it by post having not heard it, as it turned up unexpectedly as a 12" single he played it at 33 rather than 45 for the first week, while the rest of us pissed ourselves and took bets about how long it would take him to work it out.
@@JustJPif you’re interested in covering some old school ska, maybe you could check out “Johnny Too Bad” performed by The Slickers. You must get requests all the time but it’s an incredible song. Anyway thank you again!
You need to check out at least for your own enjoyment the video from the show they played as Napa State Mental Hospital. Yes, the ‘80s had the Cramps performing for the patients of am insane asylum. Classic line from Lux, “They said you people were crazy, but you seem alright to me.”
Lux would go back and forth from the mike instead of using the volume knob. Serious Lo-Fi, and unique music. If you are half as good as Ivy's band, you are exceptional.
You MUST hear Southern Culture on the Skids, or/and Los Straightjackets. The loony ‘60s evolved, being the true form of artistic musical expression for Modern Times.
I’m so happy you’re checking out the crabs my favorite band all time yeah keep diving into them you won’t be disappointed I’m sticking with them ever since they began many times in concert Incredible in concert Lux Interior Is an incredible showman
I saw that Cramps at CBGB's in 81and got my safety pin ripped out of my cheek slam dancing in the mosh pit still have the chunk skar to this day and I'm 62
I like this band. Don't love everything, but they have some great songs. Humas Fly I'd put among the interesting (very influential, no doubt about it) songs but not so great. For me their best album is A Date With Elvis. Try What's inside the girl or Can Your Pussy Do The Dog (if you dare!).
If you want something Western (and eventually only very slightly surfer) that appears to involve someone going for a walk round town from his home 6 feet down in the cemetery (but I might have it backwards) that mixes reasonably cheery musical sound with topics like suicide, and ends with some added fly on the violin, then *The Transient* by Bergen band *Major Parkinson* should do nicely. th-cam.com/video/XRHsN_IrTuY/w-d-xo.html (Enjoyed the Cramps but can't think of anything to add to what's already been said about them.)
Nearly forgot (this and something else that I'm still only aware of having forgotten). The little Aussie kid who played great blues guitar is going through adolescence now (and can laugh about what it does to his voice), and has released his own song: *Crossroads* th-cam.com/video/kDXpSlJMisQ/w-d-xo.html by *Taj Farant* . (It's not a cover of the old Crossroads.)
Found it. Some old jazz done afresh and groovy (by some groovy cats called *Allison Young* and *Josh Turner* - Did I sound authentic with all the groovy?) Short. Very sweet. Just the thing to put you in an even better mood, and make you float up, stick to the ceiling, and refuse to come back down. th-cam.com/video/luOCtIIEv1U/w-d-xo.html *The Best is Yet to Come*

There is a song from the 60s called 96 Tears
The lyric "I got 96 tears and 96 eyes" is a nod to the 1960s garage classic 96 Tears by Question Mark and the Mysterians.
And to the fact that flies do, in fact, have 96 eyes.
The Cramps song “Garbage Man” is a big fan favourite, I’d definitely recommend checking out
Love this song, this was the first song on The Cramps first EP in 1978!!!! Punkabilly, or Psychobilly is born! SO influential! Keep it going Justin!!!

Quite possibly the best band ever on record and on stage. RIP Lux.

Happily artgrrl! :D Ty

Thanks for bringing The Cramps to this party !!!

I have this album, loved dancing to this back in the day 😊
My faveolate band that I grew up with. Beautiful at concerts. RIP Lux.
Bump into the microphone...spot on.
Utter Legends. Utter Lo-Fi. Utter Rock and Roll.

Check out their performance of “Tear it Up” from the movie “Urgh! A Music War”. You’ll never forget it.
The original UK version of the sleeve was in 3D and came with a pair of card glasses.
BTW, the Cramps have a bizarre vid of them performing at an asylum in 1978. It is a gas!

Ape Hangers "I Don't Want To Live Today"
The Morlocks "My Friend The Bird" & "Get Out Of My Life Woman"
I’m so happy you’re checking out the crabs my favorite band all time yeah keep diving into them you won’t be disappointed I’m sticking with them ever since they began
many times in concert
Incredible in concert
Lux Interior
Is an incredible showman
Coyote Shivers "Sugar High"
Josie Cotton "See The New Hong Kong"
Epic, more please! It's like Link Wray on acid.
Not heard guitar like that in quite some time.
Great reaction! "How Come Ya Do Me" is one of my favs!
Sometimes there is no why, it just it's what it it's.
Brilliant i never bore of the cramps
Push that pest-i-cide!
You'd also like "New Kinda Kick"
I quote thusly: "Life is short / filled with stuff"
If this hasn't been in a horror movie by this point then there is no justice in this world.
I saw that Cramps at CBGB's in 81and got my safety pin ripped out of my cheek slam dancing in the mosh pit still have the chunk skar to this day and I'm 62
Ouch! How was the show?
I’d recommend The Jesus & Mary Chain
The Flying Lizards "Money"
This is by far my favorite Cramps song!
Might I suggest "Bend Over I'll Drive"?
Is this the way Hank Williams died?
Cramps e diversao em forma de musica
Yes more Cramps
❤
Tear it up and bikini girls with machine guns are good tracks.
Also try a uk psychobilly band, The Meteors.
That LP had a 3D cover and came with 3D glasses. Just saying.
reminds me of Zappa´s -i am the slime from 1973.......

*The Best is Yet to Come*
Next up, gwar - salaminizer
JP I recommend if you're sampling that sort of genre I recommend The Meteors -preferably early tracks- Rockabilly Psychosis is a good track.
A lot of music to react to by this group like garbage man uranium Rock what's inside a girl list just goes on
Bad music for bad people
