Lux and Ivy Dig the Beatniks - A Collection of Finger Lickin' Grooves, Deep Thinkin' Diatribes and Exploitation 45s

A double CD featuring a host of classic beatnik 45s as dug by The Cramps’ Lux and Ivy. Featuring super rare sides, weird pontification, finger clicking hipness, deep thinking diatribes and the inevitable mention of goatees on a set of suitably ginchy grooves. Including Edd ‘Kookie’ Byrnes, Don Morrow, Langston Hughes, Slim Gailliard, the late great Ken Nordine, Rod McKuen, Cal Tjader, Babs Gonzalez and a host of others searching for the “cool”. With revered beat poets Kenneth Patchen and Lawrence Ferlinghetti set to jazz and mindless tunes by Dizzy Gillespie, Roy Eldridge and Bob Dorough among others. Featuring a blast on novelty 45s from Cacique And His Tribe, The Jokers, The Expresso’s, Honkers, Dick Summers, Three Bips And A Bop, Steve Allen and Sylvester Statuslack Hup. Remastered from the original sound sources with sleeve notes by Mojo magazine’s Dave Henderson.
