I guess I'm not sure who thought it was a good idea to get the Cramps (I cut your head off and put it in my TV set) a gig at Napa State Mental Hospital, back in the late 70's, but they did and here is the footage for your viewing and listening pleasure.
The good news about this is that you can see the original Cramps (with Bryan Gregory). The bad news is, that this is very rough, warts and all, complete with people's backs in front of the camera and inmates attempting to take over the vocals, etc. It's also rather short. And what's left to watch after you're done with the performance? Why, self-promotion, of course, from Target Video. Some of that is actually not bad, but again, you find yourself wondering who would have booked Crime at a maximum security prison...and then there's Non, who makes all kind of noise with "found" objects, at which point I stopped the video.
I guess for the novelty of having the Cramps on DVD, this is fine. But I didn't find this worth keeping & will just listen to my CD's when the mood strikes me. 6 out of 10.
