Based upon work and materials compiled for the acclaimed and now much
sought after 2007 Cramps biography 'A Short History of Rock'n'Roll
Psychosis', Journey to the Centre of the Cramps goes far beyond being
a revised and updated edition: Completely overhauled, rewritten and
vastly expanded, it now represents the definitive work on the group.
In addition to unseen interview material from Ivy, Lux and other former
band members, Journey to the Centre of the Cramps also sees the
Cramps' story through to its conclusion, recounting Lux's unexpected
death in 2009, the subsequent dissolution of the group and their
enduring legacy. The Cramps' history, influences and the cast of
characters in and around the group are likewise explored in far greater
depth.
Features unseen first-hand interview material from Lux Interior and
Poison Ivy. A wealth of new interview material with former band members
and other key players in the band's history and never before seen/rare
photographs and ephemera to help illustrate the book.
