Bad Music for Bad People is a 1984 compilation of the Cramps’ stand-out psychobilly rock. Featuring 11 tracks, including “Goo Goo Muck” and “Human Fly.” Pressed on standard black vinyl.

The usual selection of covers of rockabilly and garage rarities surfaces, most memorably with a ripping redo of rock & roll wildman Hasil Adkins’ ‘She Said.’ The rave-up qualities are brought out in a full-bodied performance, while Interior sounds like he’s been either dug up from a grave or a swamp… Production at points ventures into the totally primitive — all the more appropriate for the band in question, admittedly — giving everything the necessarily rough-and-ready atmosphere for the group’s own brand of scummy sleaze. The artwork is notable in its own right, with the fleshless big-haired ghoul on the cover having turned into an icon for the Cramps and goth/rockabilly music worldwide.
