THE CRAMPS "Blues Fix" (Big Beat BLUE 1)
Brand new limited edition 4-track vinyl 10" EP—factory-sealed from new!
The Cramps’ “Blues Fix” first came out in 1992 as a side project to “Look Mom No Head!” – sort of the single from the album, plus three. It came out then on newfangled CD, so here’s your chance to get a vinyl fix of the “Blues Fix”, all big 10 inches of it.
First up is ‘Hard Workin’ Man’, originally released in 1978 as part of Jack Nitzsche’s soundtrack to Blue Collar. The record featured Ry Cooder on slide guitar and Captain Beefheart growled a mean vocal.
It was the Cramps who introduced me to the delights of Lightning Slim’s ‘It’s Mighty Crazy’, originally issued on Excello 2131 in November 1957, if you must know.
Walter Brown got his Jelly Roll rocks off on Zip 4686 in 1958 and is definitely not to be confused with the blues shouter of the same name who fronted the Jay McShann Orchestra. Our Walter made this singular outing in his search for fame and poverty and put a lot of energy into both sides of his 45.
The EP closes with ‘Shombalor’, originally issued by Sheriff & the Ravels on Vee-Jay 306 in December 1958, just in time for Christmas.
