Sid Vicious - Sid Sings!

So, between the death of the Sex Pistols and the death of Nancy Spungen Sid Vicious tried his hand as front man. This 1979 release documents, primarily, his short stint at Max's Kansas City. For those that haven't heard it yet, it delivers exactly what yo would expect. That is, loud, sloppy, abrasive punk rock. And I think it's an important page in punk history. Whew! That's a lot of live stuff to start the month! I think I'll take tomorrow off.

It's That Kind Of Thrill

Sex Pistols - Kill The Hippies

Johnny Thunders - The New Too Much Junkie Business

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny. This was originally released as a ROIR cassette in 1983. Good live stuff with drugged out intros.

Live At Ricky's

V/A - 'Live From The Masque' Compilations

Back in 1996 Year One Records, a label I know absolutely about and if Discogs.com is correct only put out 4 releases, compiled these 3 great live CD's chronicling the all to brief history of the L.A. clum the Masque. Volume One has 24 songs fro the Weirdos, Bags, Germs and Skulls. Volume Two has 22 songs from F-Word, Alley Cats, X and Zeroes. And finally, Volume Three gives us 20 songs from Eyes, Dickies, Randoms and the always entertaining Black Randy & The Metrosquad. By the way, the fourth release on Year One Records was apparently a CD of Exene Cervenka recites exerpts from the Unabomber Manifesto. That sounds quite interesting to me. Anyone have it by chance?
