Classic Albums #4: Pussy Galore's Right Now
 
Rock n Roll heaven or a pointless art school prank by Lester Bangs obsessives?

It's certainly one of my favorite records ever.

I really don't have anything else to add.

screamingskull 06.27.2007 02:59 PM

i don't have it, what's it like?

demonrail666 06.27.2007 03:05 PM

Well I absolutely love it so I'm probably not the best person to answer that. Think of three bands stuck in the same room, playing three different Cramps songs, all at the same time. If that sounds like a good thing, then you might just think it's the biz'niz. If not, then I really don't know what to say.

[edit:] You like New York though, right? You'll fuckin' LOVE it then. Trust me.

Yes, a complete riff fest, and deadly while listening with headphones on.

I haven't got, or listened to enough, any of these bloody so-called classic albums apart from Sgt Pepper's. I demand a Happy Hardcore classic for the next classic album, please.

A near perfect distillation of 30 years of rock and roll. Definitely the pinnacle of PG's output.

jon boy 06.27.2007 03:16 PM

its good but not as good as corpse love or dial m for mutherfucker.

Rob Instigator 06.27.2007 03:30 PM

another album I do not know.

if it sounds anything like the cramps, then i am sorry to say I will never like it. I hate me that rockabilly garbage, but i will go find this in the used bin and give it several spins.

Corpse Love doesn't really count as an album, as such, but would agree that there's stuff on it that shows PG at their very best. I much prefer Right Now to Dial M though, which always sounds too much like it's anticipating the Blues Explosion's more pastiche-like elements.

Punch Out is one of the most righteous things ever done in the name of Rock n Roll.

[edit:] Listening to Dial M again now. Forgot just how good it actually is. A close call between it and Right Now, definitely.

I don't have this one. You sure it's a classic?

I have a couple of Pussy Galore things, but I'm not sure I'd call them better than Sgt. Pepper's or Something/Anything.

Probably not, when compared with something like Pepper. But then that's a fairlly exceptional benchmark to judge by. It's a 'scene' classic, I suppose. Either way, it deserves its own thread if only because it might start some kind of debate regarding what a 'classic' album actually is in the first place.

Rob Instigator 06.27.2007 04:19 PM

pimper's paradies is a great Wailers song.

demonrail666 06.27.2007 04:59 PM

As the saying goes, "piss off Rob."

atsonicpark 06.27.2007 05:30 PM

good.

harry pussy is the better pussy band, but still.. haha.

yeah, i do dig this though, probably the best "classic" (is it a classic? at least we're not discussing about loveless or daydream nation for the 36409468340968th time) that we've talked of yet.

demonrail666 06.27.2007 05:34 PM

Is it possible for a band to have the word 'pussy' in their name and not be great?

Thanks to Melly falling into a barrel of beer last night, I shall be brief. I love this goddamn album, and i regret that I never saw PG live.
