Still one of the greatest punk songs of all time, I only just now discovered there's a VIDEO for Dieter Meier's "Cry for Fame". The 1978 single sees the Swiss conceptual artist (and later frontman of the avant pop group Yello) maniacally shouting through a frenetic blitz of distorted guitars, anchored by a rhythm section that sounds like the bottom's already collapsed from underneath. Most folks first came to know this obscure song via the "Killed by Death" punk bootleg series in the 90s, but my old pal Martha (former DJ from WHRB, WPRB, and WFMU) was wise to it years earlier, and routinely sang its praises on the airwaves. I owe her a tremendous debt for dragging it across my radar.
The B-Side is also a scorcher. Why on Earth hasn't anyone re-issued this?

Damned guitarist Brian James has broken his last string, as we all will (either through age, illness, violence, misadventure or neglect). Their debut LP ("Damned Damned Damned") remains thee perfect Saturday Morning Record for me, and it’s all his songs from beginning to end (apart from the “1969” cover, of course). I know little of the man’s personal life but got to be friends with that buzzy bandsaw guitar, the mangled solos, the sense of wild abandon and velocity. Neat neat neat. #BrianJames #KilledByDeath #Punk #PunkRock #TheDamned
