CD Reviews

Cramps - 'Off The Bone' (Zonophone)

Mike Reed | USA | 07/07/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"For any old school Cramps fans,this seventeen track compilation disc is a should-have.When I looked more closely to the track listing,I realized it was a combination of the 'Gravest Hits' five-song EP along with their 'Bad Music For Bad People' lp.Even though all these vintage psychobilly tunes have indeed been released several times before,'Off The Bone' is STILL worth owning a copy of.It's always fun to hear "Human Fly","Surfin' Bird","Drug Train","Go Goo Muck" and "Uranium Rock" as well as the others.Nice mysterious cover.Enjoy."

AWSOME COLLECTION!

"This CD has all the early singles, many crazy covers and is very good sound quality. Includes booklet with early pictures and album covers. I like it!"
