Book Reviews of The Cramps: A Short History of Rock 'n' Roll Psychosis

Book Review: This is for all you Gucci bag carriers...
Summary: 5 Stars

As 'The Wild Wild World of The Cramps' by Ian Johnston is now virtually impossible to get hold of (unless you're willing to fork out anything between ?30-?149 - see Amazon Marketplace), this offering by Dick Porter is a very welcome addition to any Cramps fan's collection.

Well written and nicely illustrated throughout, it covers the band's history from their early releases all the way up to How To Make A Monster. It's a great introduction to the band for new fans and should also please established fans. Not only that, it also features exclusive new interviews with Lux Interior and Poison Ivy.

Enjoy the journey into the weird and wonderful world of The Cramps and remember, Don't Eat Stuff Off The Sidewalk!
