Taken me a while but I finally got round to posting a review of this double vinyl set here onlyrockandroll.london/2018/02/01/slim-dunlap-my-old-new-records/If you hang around this board you need these songs. And the Songs For Slim programme is a great thing, helping to pay for his medical treatment. One more time, just for the hell of it

Do we all know about this?
"Walter Lure and his esteemed team captured performing 'L.A.M.F.' last November at the Bowery Electric. On coloured vinyl LP, CD and DVD. Lure, Burke, Stinson & Kramer L.A.M.F. Live at the Bowery Electric Jungle Records 24 November 2017
Johnny Thunders & the Heartbreakers' classic 1977 'L.A.M.F.' album performed by members of Blondie, MC5, Replacements & Heartbreakers.
Sole surviving Heartbreaker Walter Lure was joined by Blondie's Clem Burke, The Replacements' Tommy Stinson and MC5's Wayne Kramer over two nights at New York City’s ‘Bowery Electric’ club in November 2016, and captured for posterity.
Also joining them on stage were guests including Jesse Malin of D-Generate, Liza Colby and the Dead Boys' Cheetah Chrome. The DVD features bonus material of interviews with all four band-members along with Jesse Malin.
‘L.A.M.F.’ is the album recorded by Johnny Thunders & the Heartbreakers in punk-era London, after they accompanied the Sex Pistols, Damned & Clash on the aborted ‘Anarchy Tour’. Being ex-members of the New York Dolls they were lauded by the young punks, and went on to record the high-octane rock’n’roll album, in retrospect labelled as a classic:
"That 'L.A.M.F.', the only album by Johnny Thunders' swaggering, smacked-up post New York Dolls outfit, The Heartbreakers, is one of New York punk's defining artefacts (despite being recorded in Britain), is beyond dispute. – Damien Love, Uncut magazine, 9/10 review.
“Arguably the best album to come out of the original wave of punk rock” – Joe Whyte, Louder Than War
This live DVD, coloured vinyl LP and CD follows on from the remastered 40th anniversary edition of 'L.A.M.F.' and the reissue of an extended ‘Definitive Edition’ 4CD box set (and triple-vinyl) of the albums many mixes and demos.
The release coincides with Walter Lure taking his 'L.A.M.F.' show on out the road again – this time with the Sex Pistols' Glen Matlock on bass, Social Distortion's Mike Ness on guitar & vocals, and again Blondie's Clem Burke on drums. They play six dates starting at the end of November 2017 covering US east and west coasts, with gigs in Los Angeles, San Diego, Brooklyn and New York.
LURE BURKE STINSON & KRAMER ‘L.A.M.F. Live at the Bowery Electric’
LP: FREUDLP124 Ltd blue vinyl: Nov. 24; CD: FREUDCD124 Dec 1; DVD: JVD0124D Dec 1."

I am DJing for Bash + Pop at the Garage on Thursday, playing only 7" vinyl. I think something punky might go down well - any requests ?
