Lux Interior,lead singer and co-founder of The Cramps passed away in the early hours of February fourth, 2009.
The music world has lost an amazingly unique performer,someone who,onstage at least, could make Iggy look like a catholic school choirboy.Lux was the sort of man who made you feel like dedicating your life to rock and roll and i doubt if we will ever see anyone quite like him again.
As talked about in a previous post,i was lucky enough to see the band live in the mid Eighties,Lux had an massive onstage presence,perhaps the greatest onstage persona that i have ever seen ,he’s right up there with Iggy and Marilyn Manson in terms of showmanship.
Here’s a vid from the same time as i saw them,Lux even has exactly the same outfit on
And lastly,if you know how Lux got his stage name, then i’m sure you will agree that Lux would have apprecieted the irony of this
