• Track Listing

The punk, rockabilly, country and even ballads on X’s 1980 debut made it clear why they stood out so starkly from the rest of the L.A. punk pack. John Doe and Exene Cervenka’s killer songs are what really made this an instant classic: "Los Angeles," "Johnny Hit and Run Paulene," "Your Phone’s Off the Hook, but You’re Not," "Nausea" and more. Also includes their take on "Soul Kitchen," a nod to the album’s producer, Ray Manzarek. Fat Possum.
