KNIF OF THE LIVING DEAD

The King is dead. Or is he? One should never be too quick to judge these things.


Lux Interior: Rock-N-Roll Legend, Guru of the Goo-Goo Muck, God of the Gorehounds, lead singer of The Cramps... how thee will be missed. But let us not weep over the tragic and unexpected departing of the Divine Keeper of All Things Green and Fuzzy my patients, but rather let us remember him fittingly by digging these rockin' tunes laid down by his mad, mad dj alter ego The Purple Knif!


"The Purple Knif Show", recorded one fateful day, July of 1984, in Hollyweird Karloff-ornia, and released years later on CD and a snazzy double LP. Presented here now for your aural delights by your good doctor. So "Get out your magic decoder rings, boys and girls!" Listen... dig... and remember the man.

I'M SO GRATEFUL I HAVE A COPY OF THIS SHOW. I ONLY WISH LUX DID MORE OF THEM. LUX AND IVY SHOULD'VE MADE IT TO SATELLITE RADIO. MAYBE IVY WILL ONE DAY. TIMELESS AND FOREVER COOL. JM
