Yep,the uncompromising real deal.I feel fortunate to have seen them live,often.I'll even forgive beloved old Lux for sweating all over me and pulling his waistband too low while on stage.
@@yecatsays I was born in 82 so I missed a lot,but my sister was there and she's got nearly all their 45's. In fact she's got loads of amazing 45's, pistols, clash, and many more. Would be good if I could copy them somehow.✌
@@newpuritan9292 Yeah, I've always wondered.I doubt most love (some) Yank tourists,Twinkies,or He Who Is Descended From Semi Liiterate Orangutans.No disrespect.semi literate orangutans.
I have always loved how Poison Ivy could be at this wild show and just be playing blistering guitar without even breaking a sweat. One of my favorite bands of all time, glad they're getting some attention now.
I was Cramps mad in my teens. They did 7 dates in 8 days, & I went to all 7, Leeds, Manchester, Leicester, Birmingham, & 3 in London. Never even knew this was filmed.Great gigs, great band.
I haven't a clue who filmed this but I watched it so many times on here and thought hang on, what if it disappears........I'll copy it just in case. Fast forward and sure enough it went, so although I'm a know nothin' I put my copy up here. I've downloaded some other stuff I wouldn't like to live without but they're all still around so I've bunged 'em on a USB stick for posterity. I wish I'd been born a few years earlier (I'm 1971) I'd have been there with bells on. I love 'em!
I was 17 at the time, & hitched around the UK by myself with a sleeping bag, tickets for the gigs (which I'd sent away for when the tour was advertised), & a few pounds in my pocket. I think back on it as a magical time, never to be repeated.
Multiple Miggs was at this show!? You can tell right around 01:38.....for those of you who are wondering who Multiple Miggs is you're gonna have to watch The silence of the lambs.

thx thx thx lux r.i.p. there will never be some like that... but who's that guitar player? not brian, not kid congo? it's 84? so who is that guy? and he plays the songs so good like he invented them, can anyone tell me?
Mike Metoff of the Pagans (cousin of Nick Knox) was the final second guitarist - albeit only live - of the Cramps' pre-bass era. He accompanied them on an extensive European tour in 1984 (that had been cancelled twice because they could not find a suitable guitarist) which included four sold out nights at the Hammersmith Palais................ copy pasted fellows xx
POISON AND LUX. Music, Insanity and Brilliance. I was able to catch in Chicago in mid 80's and PHX in 90's. Found out about of them in 82, no other band entertains with the devil of Hasil Adkins. If you are a purest and really want the hillbilly that spawned this psychobilly, do yourself a favor.
Legendary! The Cramps made something that was rock and roll purity.

Absolute stonker, cheers for uploading this gem.
I love it how we in America loved everything that came out of England....and england loved everything we put out.. great music on both sides
That's being true allies,not that officious NATO crap.😝
I don’t think England loved everything you put out.

The pure, unbridled joy and mayhem of a Cramps gig.
40 years on and it still sets my nerves a tinglin'! ❤❤❤

I like your dedication
You have to take out a mortgage to go to 7 gigs in a week these days! 🤣
@@Philliben1991 It was 83/84, & the gigs at the Hammersmith Palais, London were £2:50 per night or there abouts.

What the fifties would have been like if they hadn't been sooooo up tight
There were raw bands back then , they just didnt get any spotlight..
@@Mortslake Punk Rock already existed in the 50s, it was just revived and unearthed in the 70s!
@@jorjicostava6657Sure , but garagebands and bands like The Stooges was from the 60s.
Who's that on bass?
