Legendary L.A./South Bay proto-punk foursome the Imperial Dogs -- who wrote & recorded the original, pre-Blue Oyster Cult version of "This Ain"t The Summer Of Love" -- captured raw "n" alive on videotape at Cal State Long Beach back on October 30, 1974! Flyers for the show promised "an evening of sex, violence, and public outrage" and this 64-minute DVD delivers on all counts. Contains previously unreleased versions of 13 songs -- including 10 Imperial Dogs" originals (five of which don"t appear on either their 1978 Back Door Man 45 or "Unchained Maladies," their long-out of print 1989 Dog Meat LP) -- all in black & white and glorious mono with a 20-page, full-color booklet featuring eye-popping photos (Iggy Pop seeing the Imperial Dogs playing Rodney"s English Disco!) and detailed liner notes. Must be seen to be believed.If you"re a fan of Iggy Pop & The Stooges, the MC5, the New York Dolls, the Blue Oyster Cult, or Radio Birdman -- the bands to whom the Imperial Dogs are most-often compared -- you"re life is not complete without this.
