Poison Ivy has never gotten her due as one of the best guitarists of the 80s/90s, if you ask me.

Way I Walk -- live at a California mental hospital, 1978.

In the mid-80s, they played an outdoor show at a local venue that's a decomissioned blast furnace. Train tracks run right by the stage. About three songs into the set, a train came through. Poison Ivy immediately went into this chooga-chooga freight-train boogie riff that the band rode to smithereens as the train blasted past.

Awesome.

Can Your Pussy Do the Dog was the song playing when I got married. Thanks for this.

Awesome. I always forget how much I like them until I'm reminded.

Have I said that you rock lately? Because yes, you do.

Oh, man, this takes me back to the week I spent at Myrtle Beach after high-school graduation, 1984. Wonder what ever happened to Vicky?

I like to think that if you added up all the personalities on MeCha and made us into a band, we'd be The Cramps.

I don't know this song but I love the video.
