Title: Drug Abused
Year: 2000
Label: Flying Bomb Records
Tracks: 1.) Drug Abused, 2.) Rocker Slut, Super Star, 3.) I Had A Girl
The Dirtys had the distinction for a while of being the last new contemporary band on Crypt Records with their lone LP from 1997 until Tim came out of retirement to release The Little Killers in 2003. You Should Be Sinnin' is a modern classic but they didn't have a chance to follow it up because guitar player Larry Terbush died in 1999.
This is a posthumous 7" of a few minimalist home recordings between Larry and Dirtys bass player Joe. One thing I like about this is for being so minimalist the songs all sound different from each other. "Drug Abused" is a degenerate re-write of Otis Redding's "I've Been Loving You Too Long", "Rocker Slut, Super Star" sounds like a Dirtys song without the bottom end, and "I Had A Girl" has a fuzzy blues vibe to it.
