Larry Hardy and Henry Rollins are here to discuss their work on Gravest Gravy by the Cramps, how they first heard of and met each other, Larry seeing Henry’s first show with Black Flag and Henry being impressed that Larry released Kim Salmon’s music on In the Red, how they each first encountered the Cramps, the band’s stylistic and cultural impact, how Larry came upon a mixed but unreleased Cramps record, which was produced by Alex Chilton in 1977, Ian MacKaye’s role in this project and Henry accidentally making music news, some background on the vicious argument that appears on Gravest Gravy, releasing even more rare Cramps music, other future plans, and much more.
