That's GG playing the drums, too. He was excellent. I was in the studio when this was being recorded - i think he might've even used my drums, but i don't remember. David Peel came in to do backup vocals on this one and a few others. The studio was a converted chicken coop in Auburn, NH, springtime, and the last person to have recorded there before GG & The Jabbers was none other then Ronald McDonald - who left an autographed photo that was on the wall in the sound room as this was being recorded. Lotsa laughs - and great tunes laid down.
When i was with GG in 1980 and & '81, he didn't drink that much or do drugs. We'd have a few beers sometimes, and he smoked pot with me sometimes, but even with pot, he was a real lightweight. His eyes turned red as soon as i handed him my bong or a joint - before he even smoked any, his eyes would be bloodshot! It was amazing. I saw him drink whisky only once, when there was a street festival in Manchester, New Hampshire where he lived, he had a pint in his back pocket and was laughing a lot and having lots of fun. I split a hit of acid with him one night, but he told me the next day he'd thrown his half away, 'cause he'd had a bad experience with it before. He was a great guy, for the most part, always full of fun. There are a couple of articles ive written about him and the Jabbers, which I think I can still locate and share, if anyone's interested. He really screwed the Jabbers over.
Last time i saw him face to face was at a Wendy O. Williams concert in 1984, in Manchester, New Hampshire. We lost touch with each other by '85, until September of ';92 when we got back in touch. I had a long phone conversation with him, and we exchanged a couple of more letters, but i didn't see him again. He wrote to me on his last day in prison in early March, '93, and wanted to get together in person, but he was dead before that could happen.
GG's early work was actually pretty good. He was also said to be very nice and funny. Then he got addicted to heroin, shaved his head, and started to believe that he was God. Then he became the GG Allin we all love to hate.
It wasn't the drugs, he was always like this. I know it seems like he wasn't but read his biography and listen to some interviews from Merle and him. GG says he used to collect shit and piss from locals at the bar before he was in a band, and he would take and use it for his sexual practices. No joke. Merle says however he became really different after prison. When he did the prison time he went in with hair, and a sing song voice, he came out pissed off with a shaved head (really not that uncommon to happen in prison xD).
i was close with him in 1980 {which is when this was recorded}, and for the following few years, and there was no piss OR scat type of stuff going on during that period, unless it was ultra-secret, which i doubt. He was happily married to Sandy at the time, and sexually - and hygiene-wise - GG was pretty normal.
I am reading the post and seeing that people are trying to figure him out and you cant. He was complex but with a simple messege. He is great im my opnion because I could never do what he did or say he is amazing
GG was an excellent singer - even one of the reviews for that first LP said, "GG has a good voice..." He could have continued to sing well IF HE'D WANTED TO, but he intentionally made his voice sound as unpleasant as he could. You can still hear a pretty good voice on much later recordings when he sang ballads with an acoustic guitar. He could sing just about as well as he WANTED to. Look, too, at his drawing of a flower on the card he made for his mother on Mother's Day toward the end of his life, and you can see from his careful, sensitive, detailed, delicate drawing that he could do just about ANYTHING very well, IF and when he wanted to. Very few of us really knew him, and very, very few people really cared deeply about this PERSON. Those of us who really did care about him aren't too pleased with the way he's "remembered" and the fucked-up-ness of his "following" now. Better to just let him stay dead. As i've written before, most of the things people know about him now, are the bad parts. His good qualities aren't really known except to a small handful. The really sad part is that those around him were more interested in using him than in being his real friend. There are articles i've written about him on my webpage, jimdangerzone.com I write about him just to tell the truth about him & what was really going on.
Every couple years I rediscover my love for GG, especially the early Jabbers tracks.. I used to say GG Allin was the first man I ever loved, having discovered him through Gidget Gein back when I was 13.. It's sad, now that Gidget's gone, an OD just like GG.. I finally just got clean last year for my 29th birthday (a decade of junk is enough).. I'm feeling nostalgic today Haha..
how many rockers died the way they wanted to,a fifth of jack and a golden shower.....at least he was original,kevin allin is sleepin with the fishes and smellin'em 2....a great rocker...
GG also did a country album called Carnival of Excess. Here is a link to the full length video featuring his country songs. ua-cam.com/video/kMDqYW0U90A/v-deo.html
Nomatter how popular GG may become in the future, he never sold out Besides, I don't think GG will ever be that popular anyway, nobody understands the true meaning of rock and roll. more people are always going to hate him than like him. besides emo can suck my bone and will fade away just like everything else.
GG also did a country album called Carnival of Excess. This is the full length movie featuring his country songs. ua-cam.com/video/kMDqYW0U90A/v-deo.html
i feel i was lucky. this was the first GG album I ever heard. then "dirty love songs" and on through everything else over the years. so i got a pretty accurate picture of his descent into pretty much just a place where i couldn't tell him from most death metal. there are still people out there who think that's what his music always was. and that sucks. they will never know the joy of laughing your ass off to the texas nazis show or the power of songs like this. oh well fuck 'em
@TheRamonesOwns I kinda like his voice. He kinda switched genres when he got older it became more violent. I like him young and old. If not I liked him more old.(Also the rest in piss GG is funny as fuck I give you koudos for that)
@Athiestyouth haha, thanks for replying to that, because I'd forgotten I'd typed it (along with most things that i forgot from that night). oh well, I think it's a pretty accurate representation of how I talked that night too, so I can't fault the keyboard.
@Drizzlerman Kind of approriate because a lot of his early stuff is quite humourous. What could be funnier than the line: "I used to sniff girls pantyhose But there's nothing like a girl sitting on your nose"? The fact she'll slide off, for starters. That said, this is good power pop, like your granny used to make. I can take it to any indie disco and I bet people will cut a rug to it. The later stuff is so bad, it's good, just for its gonzo comedy value alone.
He wasn't Jewish. His real name was Jesus Christ Allin. People called him G.G. because his brother Meryl couldn't pronounce his name when they were young and it sounded like GeeGee. Hence his nickname G.G. His mom changed his name to Kevin Michael Allin when he went to school as well. At any rate, I don't think a Jewish woman would name her kid Jesus Christ.
@TRBNGR666 uhh.... no...? lol idk whose you checked but... that not mine. honestly, i can say a lot of things right now, not many of them flattering to yourself, but because i kind of feel bad for you, ill just let this one go.
This is mainstream new wave/punk. sounds alot like the Buzzcocks. what the fuck happened to this guy? he was definitely very psychologically fucked up in the last years of his life. Are there any interviews of GG during this phase of his career?
i knew him during this period, we were pretty close. Articles about him at this phase are on my webpage, jimdangerzone.com I also spoke with him in the fall of '92, after i'd lost track of him by '84. He was basically the same person, and was still laughing about shit we'd done together back in '80. He did say {in '92} that he'd gotten way fucked up on too much booze and drugs.

The burger guy?
Ya, the corporate clown! We got a laugh out of that. It was bizarre.
When i was with GG in 1980 and & '81, he didn't drink that much or do drugs. We'd have a few beers sometimes, and he smoked pot with me sometimes, but even with pot, he was a real lightweight.

Jim Danger that's sick! Did you ever run into GG towards the end of his life, when he was throwin shit and stuff?
Last time i saw him face to face was at a Wendy O. Williams concert in 1984, in Manchester, New Hampshire. We lost touch with each other by '85, until September of ';92 when we got back in touch. I had a long phone conversation with him, and we exchanged a couple of more letters, but i didn't see him again.

I do enjoy pre-poop GG the most
I do enjoy the sober and sane G.G!!!...what happened afterwards is another chapter in his life.
The guitarist in this band can write a fucking solid solo that's for sure
Yeah best part of the song
After awhile you realise hes got a VERY wide variety of music.
@@jeffstrosmchats7259 why was he a piece of garbage??
Im surprised he was the first to come up with a song titled I hate people
Pretty sure this is my favorite punk rock song of all time. Dude is rippin it on guitar.
I love GG Allin because he has a song for every mood I could ever be in!
GG n' the Jabbers were so good.
those backing vocals are amazing! Aaaaautomaaatic!
Happy Birthday GG Allin
Early G.G was killer, which hetrosexual male on this earth, hasn't felt like this song in their lifetime?? genius!!!
pretty much all gg songs are good. but you're right this one's more relatable
I relate to the violent ones more.. but yes the masses can relate to this
Unknown wow edgy
Exactly. Its pure raw emotion. What music is supposed to be
“Don’t go playin’ with me emotionally” women are masters of that.
GG's early work was actually pretty good.
He was also said to be very nice and funny.
Then he got addicted to heroin, shaved his head, and started to believe that he was God.
Then he became the GG Allin we all love to hate.
He did this shitting on stage thing in 1985 for first time.He was full of hair.I think the real change happened after 1984 or 1985.
It wasn't the drugs, he was always like this. I know it seems like he wasn't but read his biography and listen to some interviews from Merle and him. GG says he used to collect shit and piss from locals at the bar before he was in a band, and he would take and use it for his sexual practices. No joke.

bro la vida no es color de rosa
what interview is that? The prison thing was 89 right? i thought the change as quite earlier..
i was close with him in 1980 {which is when this was recorded}, and for the following few years, and there was no piss OR scat type of stuff going on during that period, unless it was ultra-secret, which i doubt. He was happily married to Sandy at the time, and sexually - and hygiene-wise - GG was pretty normal.
His stuff with the jabbers kicks ass
one of the best solos ive ever heard
A reply from my first comment
The bassline in this song is soooo good!!!!
Always coming back to hear that riff!
I am reading the post and seeing that people are trying to figure him out and you cant. He was complex but with a simple messege. He is great im my opnion because I could never do what he did or say he is amazing
Despite his persona, he was such a great songwriter. A true entertainer.
his early recordings with the jabbers were great punk rock & roll. He could have been the best.
+MODERATOR : Russel PROPHET yea k
one of gg's best songs. the jabbers were the best band he ever played with.
What a transformation. Sounds like the Buzzcocks.
By this point GG's voice was fully developed. I guess the drugs and alcohol abuse completely warped his vocals.
YOU POSTED THIS 2 YEARS AGO....HOW ARE YOU? PS: (THROWS SHIT ON YOU).
PunkNDisorderlyGamer Yeah, because he had such a strong and beautiful voice.
PunkNDisorderlyGamer No doubt!
GG was an excellent singer - even one of the reviews for that first LP said, "GG has a good voice..."

Jim Danger can you help me find that picture of the Mother's Day card? I couldn't find it.
A 5 minute punk song?
Blessed.
Power Pop who knew?
His early stuff was power pop.
fave fave fave fave fave!!!!!!! man this was the best stuff ever!!!!
Damn, I wish I still had this album, it kicks ass
this is a great song
The True King.
great bassline, drums and guitar, snarly vocals and I have no fucken clue what the words are about = kickass rock n roll !!!
Rob basso is such a good guitarist. Most of his solos end the same and I love that about him
i have a new love for this guy. great, great music regardless of lyrical themes. (:
His early stuff is actually pretty good
You can take it to any indie disco and kids will dance to it. He could have had a top 40 hit, if the circumstances were right.
gg is rocking hard with god ! r.i.p.
*satan
I know nobody is in a place to judge others but well.. let's just say I'm not sure If I am able to agree with you on this one. :/
YOU BITCH.
tá no colo de satanás
Leave God alone! Do not movk God for your bullshit
Every couple years I rediscover my love for GG, especially the early Jabbers tracks.. I used to say GG Allin was the first man I ever loved, having discovered him through Gidget Gein back when I was 13.. It's sad, now that Gidget's gone, an OD just like GG.. I finally just got clean last year for my 29th birthday (a decade of junk is enough)..
I'm feeling nostalgic today Haha..
Fuckin' great song. I like GG's earlier work a lot more than the stuff he screams on. This one's a killer!
Do What Thou Wilt!
So weird to think this is GG. Sounds like the buzzcocks.
Scruffy P totally agree, a good pop-punk song
+Jerome Fecto yes
Fuck
+Scruffy P I love the buzzcocks A real asset to punk, what eer that fucking means! Stock

Verry good punk rock

GG also did a country album called Carnival of Excess. Here is a link to the full length video featuring his country songs.
ua-cam.com/video/kMDqYW0U90A/v-deo.html
Del primer disco de GG Allin
Sounds like cartman
This is off the Halycon reissue CD which has the tape running at least 1/2-step too fast.
janothon divas lmfao
Hahahahahahahahaha :D
Not as much as Smashing Pumpkins
This is power pop at its best, he could easily have ended up on the C-86 compilation.
@louiscfc93, I have a compilation called "Expose Yourself" which features a few rare late 70s and early 80s GG songs.
Nomatter how popular GG may become in the future, he never sold out
Besides, I don't think GG will ever be that popular anyway, nobody understands the true meaning of rock and roll. more people are always going to hate him than like him.
besides emo can suck my bone and will fade away just like everything else.
Commercials on Gg's songs he would be so fucking mad
GG also did a country album called Carnival of Excess. This is the full length movie featuring his country songs.
ua-cam.com/video/kMDqYW0U90A/v-deo.html
the true spirit of ROCKING PUNK 77 ...
Régis Blanc. true spirit of rock n roll
GG with the jabbers sounds do different than with the murder junkies!!

Well Documented 400 Krispy Kreme. Yes. Once Again, You speak the truth.
i feel i was lucky. this was the first GG album I ever heard. then "dirty love songs" and on through everything else over the years. so i got a pretty accurate picture of his descent into pretty much just a place where i couldn't tell him from most death metal. there are still people out there who think that's what his music always was. and that sucks. they will never know the joy of laughing your ass off to the texas nazis show or the power of songs like this. oh well fuck 'em
I wonder who was the girl who hurt GG
always loved GG, before he went mad he was an ok guy.
@TheRamonesOwns I kinda like his voice. He kinda switched genres when he got older it became more violent. I like him young and old. If not I liked him more old.(Also the rest in piss GG is funny as fuck I give you koudos for that)
COOL MAN GG WASA NICE MAN

SAME! SAME!
I Love my KittY!!
@Athiestyouth haha, thanks for replying to that, because I'd forgotten I'd typed it (along with most things that i forgot from that night). oh well, I think it's a pretty accurate representation of how I talked that night too, so I can't fault the keyboard.

G.g. fuckin rules
@MrSoulSamCooke i was under the impression pop punk = popular punk.
This is at the wrong speed/key
They really had him propped up in the money making direction for a little while. I wonder why he jumped ship and snapped?
he wanted to be punk, you dipshit.
@ here we go again, don't bother with this shit, you haven't got a clue so zip your snip.
A woman
awww , ill buy the car!!!
GG Rule the fuckin world!
wtf lol were did that come from
this actually something almost like joan jett's "bad reputation"
@Drizzlerman lol i just watched a south park episode before seeing this
South park should put cartman singing like GG allin
yes lol
THROWS SHIT ON YOU...
I'm sure PC Principal would love that
That joke was already made
Cartman singing like Ian Stuart of Skrewdriver (Pennies from heaven /Justice)
He wasn't Jewish. His real name was Jesus Christ Allin. People called him G.G. because his brother Meryl couldn't pronounce his name when they were young and it sounded like GeeGee. Hence his nickname G.G. His mom changed his name to Kevin Michael Allin when he went to school as well. At any rate, I don't think a Jewish woman would name her kid Jesus Christ.
His crazy-ass father named him.
@DeathcoreIsNotMetal no shit man lol
are these old songs on any cds ?
don't go fucking with me emotionally or I will make you bleed internally?Who the fuck in there right mind thinks that's a good lyric?
you do realize this is punk song.Youre sayin a punk song has dumb lyrics..its fucking punk..
Chance Huff ok youtube tuffguy
GG Allin spewed out what he felt, no matter how low the commercial merit was, he put it in there.
@retrdstrength later on, retrdstrength would look up live videos of 90's gg and would shit his pants and cry a little.
how old was he when he sung this?
Great choon from GG before it all went pear shaped!
🤘
How old is this? Sounds like Angry Samoans.
1980.
wow i never came across his early shit super nice! weird hes not singing about shitting on kids or something.
No way, look at that hair. Then look at Jerry ca 1988. :P
he seemed to get along with his brother merle alright and tbh I'm not gg. Necrophilia isn't my idea of a good time
@TRBNGR666
uhh.... no...? lol idk whose you checked but... that not mine. honestly, i can say a lot of things right now, not many of them flattering to yourself, but because i kind of feel bad for you, ill just let this one go.
Sounds like weird al yankovic back in the day
Lel, it sure does.
The lyrics sounds like he's talking to himself, which he should be.
@DeathcoreIsNotMetal pop music is popular music.
should be 785,000 views not 785
THIS TUNE ROCKS!
P.S. Greenday sucks,
and exploited too
This is mainstream new wave/punk. sounds alot like the Buzzcocks. what the fuck happened to this guy? he was definitely very psychologically fucked up in the last years of his life. Are there any interviews of GG during this phase of his career?
