2018 vinyl LP pressing housed in a gatefold jacket. 2017 remaster. The Heartbreakers' 1977
classic album 'L.A.M.F. The lost '77 mixes' - Johnny
Thunders & Jerry Nolan formed the Heartbreakers in 1975 out of the
ashes of the New York Dolls. Firstly they were together with Richard
Hell, and then teamed up with Billy Rath & Walter Lure. Malcolm
McLaren, who'd managed the Dolls, invited them join the Sex Pistols,
Clash & Damned in the UK for the infamous 'Anarchy' tour in 1976.
Staying in London at the heart of the punk scene for the following year,
they signed to Track Records and recorded 'L.A.M.F.' The album was
acclaimed as a classic, but was famously flawed with a 'muddy mix'
caused by a mastering fault. A properly audible version remained unheard
until 1994 when Jungle sifted through the original master-tapes and
reconstructed it. Johnny had died in 1991, followed by Jerry's death in
1992. Their influence on the punk scene in 1977 has permeated through to
today's new rock'n'roll scene, with many artists over the years citing
'L.A.M.F.' as a huge influence.
---
The original version of L.A.M.F. (which stands for "Like a Mother F*cker") was marred by shoddy production. This 1984 remix of the album (under the supervision of Johnny Thunders) places L.A.M.F. favorably alongside other New York punk bands from the late '70s. Borrowing inspiration from his old band, the New York Dolls, along with Chuck Berry, Keith Richards, the Ramones, and heroin, Thunders & the Heartbreakers' junkie antics translate well to disc. Songs like "One Track Mind," "Chinese Rocks," and "Pirate Love" are great examples of these influences. Although the Heartbreakers were not as lyrically intuitive as ex-member Richard Hell or Television, the music here is the key. Jerry Nolan's steady beats, and Thunders' searing guitar show that the Heartbreakers were no lightweights. This album, along with his great solo album, So Alone, stand as his definitive statements. ~ Brian Flota, AllMusic
