Songs the Cramps Taught Us Series

SONGS THE CRAMPS TAUGHT US SERIES

A series of CD’s on Born Bad Records called Born Bad – a/k/a Songs the Cramps Taught Us (actually that might be two different CD series; I’ve never been able to tell for sure) – brought the original songs introduced by the Cramps to the masses (as did a popular radio show by the band called The Purple Knif Show that was later released as an album also). I have the first six volumes of Born Bad (and were they expensive, too, at $18 a pop); but the price has come down recently, so I might see about getting some more. (More about that another time). At any rate: Highly recommended.
