Anyone remember this Boston legend? Looking for anything by him--Audio or Video.

In ignorance, he's dangerous. In innocence he's bliss.

I've got two EPs waiting by my turntable to rip. I've been saying that for months. I PROMISE this will happen!!!

Here is the 1982 self-titled EP. I've not converted Rituals to CD-R yet.

LOL...well that made it twice as easy. Thanks Grunch!!!

Here's the later Rituals EP with a few rocking numbers IMHO. Probably not as clean as Grunch's, but I hope it's acceptable as a quick 1-hour rip job - any ripping feedback appreciated. And it's been so long since I've listened to this EP that I forgot Lou did a great cover of "Jackson", a country-ish track I've grown quite fond of since Brakes covered it on their Give Blood album last year. In fact, the whole EP has hints of The Cramps if that makes sense.

Some good back story here:

The article doesn't mention cause of death, which is widely regarded as being a heroin overdose. Rest in peace Lou. Now, does anybody happen to have the "Fascist Lover"/"To Sir with Love" single?!!!

Here's the cover art if anyone's anal about that sorta thing. I couldn't seem to find anything decent on the 'net so I just shot these...

You guys rule! Thanks a lot. I remember about 3-4 years before he died I was at the Airport, waiting for a flight to SF, and he comes in and gets into a fight with the metal detector attendant because of his piercings! We have a layover in Vegas for about 3 hours and he buys me about half a dozen beers at the airport bar. He was also my first published interview when I just got out of High School. He was a real class act.

Nice hearing some of that stuff again. Thanks guys.
