But I understand you, I used to not get it either, now changed my view on them. (Then it's of course a matter of tastes...)

Poison Ivy is not an underrated female guitar player. She may be considered an underrated guitar player, however, those who tend to sexualize would often place her in their top 10 females.

This is probably the best live version I’ve seen of ‘Mad Daddy’ and excellent visual and audio quality! I recently heard an interview with Lux and Ivy. ‘Mad Daddy’ was actually inspired by a radio DJ in Cleveland named Pete Myers who went by Pete ‘Mad Daddy’ Myers. Lux loved the radio show he put on back in the 50’s (late 50’s I believe). Thank you so much for sharing this. RIP Lux and much love to Ivy, the Queen of rock n’ roll! 🌹

To have a love like Lux and Ivy--- That is the truly real, rare fairy tale. More than Sid and Nancy, Yoko and John, Kurt and Courtney, even Johnny and June- LUX AND IVY ARE THE ULTIMATE ROCK N ROLL LOVE STORY.

I saw The Cramps a number of times over the years but the best shows were at The Hootenanny In Irvine Ca. in 1995, 1998 (both days), and 2004 (10 year Reunion Show). Saw them in the 80's at the Hollywood Palace, The Palladium, Universal Amphitheater and in the 90's a couple times at the Galaxy Theater in Santa Ana. All great shows. Bring back The Hootenanny - it's been nine years since the last one in 2013! Sadly missed!

I'm telling you one of the greatest shows anybody could ever see and hear!

One of the greatest bands EVER!! I feel lucky to have seen them live several times.

As someone who saw them waaay back, several times, with Bryan Gregory, I can say that this still, rather astoundingly, kicks ass. And it's just the opener - they haven't entirely settled into their groove/ferocity yet - my fave from this show is the Caveman/Let's Get F'd Up footage from TheManus02 - I'm addicted to it

Lux and Ivy are just blistering. If anyone has not seen the concert they did for a mental hospital, I highly recommend it. Some of the best footage of this amazing idea by this incredible band.

Got lots of play on my college radio alt-rock show in the 1990's.

Montreal Spectrum in 1988, Screaming Blue Messiahs opened. Unbelievable show with Lux down to just tiny leopard skin undies and pumps, swallowing the mic and soaked in red wine. One of the best rock spectacles of my many years seeing live music. May he rock on wherever he is now...

Lux was from Akron Ohio. We used to listen to Mad Daddy on Cleveland Radio aroung 58-59, Then Mad Daddy was on TV with a monster movie show Friday nights. But he pumped his stats so much A big New York Market picked him up and he made a lot more money. Ernie Anderson took over the Friday night show as Ghoulardi . Who in a way still rules north east Ohio. Ernie was later the voice of ABC, That deep voice telling you the LUUUV Boat was coming on next.

Yep, AM radio personality Pete Myers joined New York’s 1010 WINS around that time, to do an adult MOR show. About 1961, WINS flipped to rock ‘n’ roll, and Myers reverted to his “Mad Daddy” personna, and was fantastic. He was in competition with Murray the K, Cousin Bruce Morrow, Scott Muni and B. Mitchell Reed, among other NYC radio giants.
