Greetings From Death Row - Weird and Wonderful Sounds From The Vault Of Lux and Ivy CD
28 tracks of devil-may-care attitude and surreal storytelling as dug by The Cramps’ Lux and Ivy. Featuring Gene Vincent, Sonny Terry and Faron Young, along with a host of one-hit wonders including the inimitable Connie Lee and The Untouchables, The Hot Tamales, The Furys, The Chantels and Hunter Watts & His Southern Pals. Embracing all styles from wild rockabilly, strident instrumental rock ’n’ roll, western swing, honky tonk, blues, doo-wop, crime jazz and beatnik weirdness. You'll hear songs about record collecting, wardrobe malfunctions, the new dance crazes and early learnings on the birds and bees, plus three tunes direct from death row, a last meal bonanza of self-examination and angst. Remastered from the original sound sources, and accompanied with informative liner notes by Dave Henderson (Mojo Magazine).
