The CRAMPS embodied and celebrated everything that was great about American music, art, photography, fashion, cars, and pop culture in general. Lux and Ivy were trendsetters without ever becoming trendy themselves. They were the nucleus of one of the greatest rock and roll bands the United States could lay claim to; always true to their sound, vision, showmanship, and most of all - their loyal fans. They lived the American dream without any strings attached, or apologies given or implied.

I was in a small weekend alternative healing class with Lux and Ivy in Encino, CA. Late 1980's or early 1990's, can't remember exactly. Didn't know who they were at the time, but they did share a bit of their musical background with our class. They were thoughtful and quiet students like the rest of us in the class. I remember them fondly and, yes, I can say today that The Cramps kick major ass.

I think we can all agree with you but I'd rather have an older cat from the same generation with a deep voice sing in tribute to Lux, and not to attempt to copy him. I don't want to see some younger guy acting like Lux as the lead singer to a Cramps come back tour. Sadly, the Cramps is no more. Even more sad would be to see the rest of the band just whither away. I think Peter Murphy would also be a great option but I'm sure he would never do it.

Psychotic Reaction was on what I believe was Los Angeles AM radio station KRLA's greatest hits in 1967 or 68. My favorite song, "Dirty Water," by the Standells was on the album too. Being that The Cramps did Psychotic Reaction which they credit to Count Five, they might consider performing Dirty Water: "Down by the river, along with the lovers, fuckers and thieves. Oh, I love that dirty water." The song has a great beat and the guitar kicks ass. The Cramps should check it out. They'll dig it.

The CRAMPS embodied and celebrated everything that was great about American music, art, photography, fashion, cars, and pop culture in general. Lux and Ivy were trendsetters without ever becoming trendy themselves. They were the nucleus of one of the greatest rock and roll bands the United States could lay claim to; always true to their sound, vision, showmanship, and most of all - their loyal fans. They lived the American dream without any strings attached, or apologies given or implied.

Saw them twice back to back night, beyond incredible
I was in a small weekend alternative healing class with Lux and Ivy in Encino, CA. Late 1980's or early 1990's, can't remember exactly. Didn't know who they were at the time, but they did share a bit of their musical background with our class. They were thoughtful and quiet students like the rest of us in the class. I remember them fondly and, yes, I can say today that The Cramps kick major ass.
saw a lot of bands and there are very few who could hold a candle to the live show the Cramps put on. Never left thinking I didn't get my moneys worth from any of the shows I saw over a number of years. Thanks for the reminder.
The most gritty and soulful rendition of this song I've ever heard. Hats off to Return of the Living Dead for exposing me to The Cramps. I know I got to the party a little late, but I still got here with plenty of time to have some fun!
Quite simply, one of the greatest bands ever, a flesh and blood cartoon version of rock'n'roll......perfect!!!
saw them in 1986, ducked out of my high school prom early. quick change in the car park a& then straight in. incredible.

Saw these guys in the 80s with Lux wearing a gold lame thong and Poison Ivy wearing a belly dancer outfit - They were phenomenal. I love the gritty messiness of them.
By far one of the greatest bands I ever saw live twice in the late 1980s when I was a kid in southern California. If the Cramps ever get together for a tribute to Lux, Iggy Pop would be the best suited to sing in Lux's place. RIP Lux.

I don't want to see some younger guy acting like Lux as the lead singer to a Cramps come back tour. Sadly, the Cramps is no more. Even more sad would be to see the rest of the band just whither away.

I heard this song for the first time in 1967 on the local am top 40 station.Iwas my cousin's rec room by myself when it came on.i got right up and turned the radio and stood with my back against the imitation wood wall bouncing back and forth.It was so good that I remembered it in detail.Iwas seventeen at the time.
Cannot think of a more perfect band to cover this!
I remember watching The Cramps for the first time when my dad got one of those ancient 8ft satellite dishes, and nothing was encrypted, so you could basically watch all TV for free. One of the channels was showing Urgh! A Music War. My dad was so aghast at the Cramps, but I thought hey this is cool.
I named my dogs "Lux" and "Ivy," but that was before they drank all my booze, beat me up and stole my car.

Psychotic Reaction was on what I believe was Los Angeles AM radio station KRLA's greatest hits in 1967 or 68. My favorite song, "Dirty Water," by the Standells was on the album too. Being that The Cramps did Psychotic Reaction which they credit to Count Five, they might consider performing Dirty Water: "Down by the river, along with the lovers, fuckers and thieves. Oh, I love that dirty water." The song has a great beat and the guitar kicks ass. The Cramps should check it out. They'll dig it.
