Ain't It Fun

Cool.  been listening to some older punk lately.  Never heard of these dudes.  

 

It's nice to have something new on.

Rocket From the Tombs is almost pre-punk, 75 or some shit.  Members formed The Dead Boys and Pere Ubu.  Proof that the Cleveland does indeed rock.

I love love love Peter Laughner, who wrote and sings this and was also in Pere Ubu until he died a very early death from pancreatitis.  

Amphetamine, one of my favorite songs of all time:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33K9kNCD-QY

There is also a great (very hard to find) compilation of Peter Laughner's stuff out there called Take The Guitar Player For a Ride.  A couple links:
