Cramps bio redux excellently fills in all the gaps about this amazing band!By Gary FoessettMr. Porter goes back to the well and digs deeper into the Cramps history / myths using his previous book "A Brief History of Rock and Roll Psychosis"; as the skeleton to form a fully-fleshed out bio of the band and its impact on music and true Rock and Roll. Excellent selection of photos (even in the ebook version) and detailed discography make this a must have for any and all Cramps fans; neophytes and diehard fans alike. Thanks; Mr. Porter; Poison Ivy and all the rest who contributed to tell the Cramps amazing tale. Lux must be proud in Rock and Roll Heaven!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Hey man; fourth floor. Caveman; last door...By The DeuceWorth the price alone for the photo of Lux in his hippie days. I still like "Wild World of The Cramps" better; but supposedly the band hated it; so what do I know?Still; we cant have enough books about The Cramps; and I certainly hope Ivy is writing one right now.The early chapters here are the best; providing a lot of new info about the formative years.What else can I say about this iconic band? When they first appeared they made everything else seem too bright; too clean; too safe.I still think they were an important factor in the climate change regarding acceptance/promotion of exploitation/trashy films/music/culture for many reasons. The Cramps "got it" and they nailed it good until the hammer was nice and bloody.I cant be the only admirer of this band who felt a huge vacuum when Lux died. He seemed beyond human; but always brought the voodoo idol in him down to earth so us humans and subhumans could get at him and his band of delightful degenerates.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great book if your a cramps fanBy CustomerGreat book if your a cramps fan; gets inside their heads and you can see what makes them tick; which is music pure and simple; mostly old rockabilly; obscure country; off the wall instrumentals. Also goes into all the members over the years; great book about a great band just wish it was longer; Im reading it again
