Blondie's Clem Burke on L.A.M.F, Jerry Nolan, the Heartbreakers

Clem Burke: "The Heartbreakers' L.A.M.F. is absolutely one of the most brilliant rock’n’roll records ever made. I put it up there with anything by Eddie Cochran, Little Richard, Yardbirds, Kinks - it's in that league." He also talks of Johnny Thunders, his admiration of Jerry Nolan, the New York Dolls, etc. From the 'L.A.M.F. Live at the Bowery Electric' DVD with Walter Lure, Tommy Stinson & Wayne Kramer, this clip is one of five bonus interviews.

Here's a 17-second clip with that above quote to share:

A huge Heartbreakers fan, Clem is quoted in the new 'found' L.A.M.F. sleeve-notes "You could call them the punk rock Beatles. Each person really stood out". It's from Curt Weiss's book 'Stranded in the Jungle: Jerry Nolan's Wild Ride' (Backbeat Books), found at all good bookstores.

'L.A.M.F. Live at the Bowery Electric' is now special-priced on DVD, vinyl and CD, at: https://jungle-records.myshopify.com/ - and elsewhere. In 2016 original Heartbreaker Walter Lure got together with Clem, Tommy Stinson (The Replacements) and Wayne Kramer (MC5) to perform the entire 'L.A.M.F.' album in New York City. Guests Jesse Malin, Liza Colby and Cheetah Chrome also joined them onstage.
