    • @freshwidow
      @freshwidow Před 3 lety +1

      Are you referring to the Dangerhouse stuff? We (Benedict Arnold & The Traitors) knew the band cuz Top Jimmy was present at our first session as a band, and the next day, he was on the air with Rodney Bingenheimer on KROQ, with Exene and John Doe, promoting our first day of existence. After that, when we gave Rodney our records, he played them. Also, did/do you know Pat (bass player) of The Deadbeats (Geza X band)? He owes me a lot of money.

    • @rickperrotta
      @rickperrotta Před 3 lety +3

      @@freshwidow That was a long time ago. I do remember Top Jimmy very well. He was a friend of Billy's and I think we may have recorded him as well. We did the Los Angeles album at Golden Sound, my first studio. Very exciting sessions because X was taking punk to a whole level. Cool times!

    Saw X live, the stage lights were messing with the bass Amp, so they cut all the stage lights and played the whole set with clamp lights like you would work on a car with behind them, so awesome, so pure, no bullshit needed. One of my favorite concerts ever.

    This sounds a lot closer to the Los Angeles and Wild Gift albums than anything else they did, and those were their two best albums. Saw them in 1983 on the More Fun in the New World Tour opening for Oingo Boingo at Irvine Meadows, and last night (8-14-2022) at the Pacific Amphitheatre at the Orange County Fair Grounds.
