The Cramps – Live in New York, 18 August 1979 (RSD 2026 Limited Edition 12-Inch Album on Splatter Vinyl)

Released for Record Store Day 2026, this album is limited to 500 copies.

This album captures the Cramps’ gig at Club 57 at Irving Plaza, in New York City, on 18 August 1979, in its entirety.

This show is frequently cited as the best example of the band’s raw garage-punk and rockabilly-punk sound from this era, taking place just before the release of their debut album, Songs the Lord Taught Us. 

Featured tracks include early fan favourites such as Human Fly, Garbageman, I Was a Teenage Werewolf, Sunglasses After Dark, TV Set, The Way I Walk and more.

A feral blast of chaos, this is the Cramps at their sleaziest, loudest, and most unhinged – sweat, reverb and pure underground electricity dripping from every note.

Pressed on eye-catching splatter vinyl, this release comes in a clear PVC sleeve with a flap, with a 7cm x 20cm sticker on the front.

Please note: The product image shown is for illustrative purposes only. Due to the hand pressing process, each vinyl will have it’s own unique appearance.
