This classic 1986 album from The Cramps is one of the essential releases in the history of psychobilly, trash rock and garage punk. A Date With Elvis finds Lux Interior, Poison Ivy and Nick Knox delivering their twisted take on rockabilly, rock 'n' roll, garage and punk across eleven gloriously outrageous tracks.
The album spawned the singles Can Your Pussy Do The Dog? and What's Inside A Girl?, alongside the much-loved Kizmiaz, on which Poison Ivy also contributes vocals. From the sleazy swagger of The Hot Pearl Snatch and Cornfed Dames to the surf-trash attack of Aloha From Hell and their fantastic Charlie Feathers cover It's Just That Song, this is The Cramps at their inventive, irreverent best.
If you need one Cramps album that demonstrates exactly why they became legends, this is a superb place to start. Essential listening for psychobilly, garage punk and rockabilly fans, A Date With Elvis remains a wonderfully warped slice of 1980s rock 'n' roll that still sounds utterly unique.
