X, Los Angeles, 1980 on Slash

Debut LP from John Doe, Exene Cervenka, DJ Bonebrake and Billy Zoom. Produced (as were the next three X albums) by The Door’s keyboardist Ray Manzarek.

I was just mentioning Slash! records earlier this week – “Los Angeles” was a cut on the Slash! sampler Early Sessions and that was my intro to the band. Great LA punk band rooted in a kind of punk folk / Americana.

My copy—via Slipped Disc at a record fair at Mill No 5 in Lowell MA—is a 1983 speciality pressing with the Slash blood labels.

This song has been stuck in my head for several days now thanks to a photo of Exene Cervenka and John Doe taken by Chris Stein that he posted to his BlueSky account. So now I'm passing the favor along to you all. Sorry not sorry. 😄

Saw #TheKnitters play on this day back in 1991 at The Palomino Club in North Hollywood. By that point #ExeneCervenka, #JohnDoe and #DaveAlvin were all focusing on solo careers; this would have been an early one-off reunion gig.

I got there late, the club was packed, so I watched on tippy toe from back near the bar. Didn't matter though because the Palomino wasn't big and they played way louder than I was expecting - this wasn't no genteel unplugged set nohow. Lots of cornpone humour was lobbed about, tempos got pushed to breaking points (Dave whined about his hand being tired after "Rock Island Line") and it was a hoot and a half for everyone on/off the stage.

Por alguna extraña razón que se me escapa, ésta tiene pinta de ser mi canción del verano 2024:

Exene Cervenka of X, 1980 (at first glance I thought it said Dianne Chai from the Alley Cats)

Unfortunately I have no idea which location that was
