L.A.M.F. by the Heartbreakers




No relation to Tom Petty. Led by Johnny Thunders, and at one-time, yes, Richard Hell was a member. But he's not on this album. It's just he parted with Television, then Television just became amazing, but Hell had the Voidoids, so I guess it all worked out. "Blank Generation" is pretty sweet.

But I digress, download this if you want some honest rock and roll. I'd wager most of the profit from this album went to drugs and whatnot, so this is almost short enough to feel like they gathered enough material to actually record an album, release it, get the juice.

Stone cold classics include "Born to Lose" and "Chinese Rocks", written by Dee Dee Ramone.
