AUDIO: Goin' South (T. Edwards-C. Mort) - The Loafin' Hyenas
originally released by New Rose Records
The Gun Club’s debut album was released on 31 August 1981.
23-year-old Jeffrey Lee Pierce wrote 9 of the 11 songs on the album, which also included Terry Graham (drums), Rob Ritter (bass), and Ward Dotson (guitar).
Fire of Love is frequently cited as a seminal album, with its combination of punk and american roots music (sometimes called “punk blues” or “pyschobilly”), influencing countless bands who came after.
