Yeah, they released a completely remixed version a few years ago which has sort of become the standard version now. It's really beefed up in a way similar to what Iggy did to Raw Power.

"you cant put yr arms around a memory" has to be one of the prettiest/saddest songs ever. i still need to hear joey ramones version of it.

i like richard hell and the voidoids more than the heartbreakers. blank generation is quite awesome.

LAMF was pretty cool but yeah So Alone kicks the ass of pretty much everything. I also really like his "Que Sera Sera" record...there's a sadly ironic song on there called "Short Lives"...I've been on a Johnny kick lately.

Becuz they couldn't find a cool enough looking picture of Johnny Salton.
