The Cramps will either be Kiss-big or Trashmen-obscure

Our friend Lindsay over at the Next Big Thing has posted two cool links to two obits for Lux Interior by folks who ought to know:

Kid Congo Powers waxes nostalgic right here. In case you might not know, Kid played with the Cramps as well as the Gun Club. Especially notable was his work on the Cramps "Psychedelic Jungle." Kid still plays music which you can keep up with by following his blog.

Roy Trakin was a music writer for NY Rocker amongst others from the mid 70's to some time in the 80's. He watched as the Cramps arrived in NYC, and attempted to get somewhere. He should know what he's talking about. The title of this post comes from a quote attributed to Roy. He still writes although for who I'm not sure.
