Hurt me
Johnny Thunders ·1984
"This is a really intimate record that Johnny did. I think it was all recorded in one day; it's an acoustic record. He does a great version of 'You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory,' probably one of Johnny's greatest songs ever."

Suicide
Suicide ·2017
"Suicide, one of the very earliest bands to play out of the New York scene... this record was obviously way ahead of its time. People really didn't understand a band that would not have a drummer or a bass player... it's scary but in a good way."
