Songs the Lord Taught Us is the 1980 debut album by the Cramps with the bewildering tunes, "TV Set," "The Mad Daddy," and "I Was a Teenage Werewolf" amongst other utterly unique rock classics. Pressed on standard black vinyl.
Continuing the spooked-out and raging snarls of their Gravest Hits EP, the Cramps once again worked with Alex Chilton on the group's full-album debut, Songs the Lord Taught Us. The jacket reads 'file under: sacred music,' but only if one's definition includes the holy love of rockabilly sex-stomp, something which the Cramps fulfill in spades... Years later Songs still drips with threat and desire both, testament to both the band's worth and Chilton's just-right production.
