5 out of 5 stars The DEFINITIVE L.A.M.F!.......2006-01-10

Quick history lesson. I hope you can keep up:

1977: L.A.M.F. comes out with a horrible, muddy mix. It was so bad that Jerry Nolan, the drummer, quit the band.

1984: L.A.M.F. is remixed by Johnny Thunders and sounds surprisingly fresh and clean. Retitled, L.A.M.F. Revisited, it sounds very good. Some say it's a little too "glossy" to represent how The Heartbreakers actually laid it down.

1997: Hundreds of different mixes were sorted through and the hardest, punchiest versions were remixed and put out under the title: "L.A.M.F: The Lost '77 Mixes."

This is the version you want! The druums hit HARD like a punch to the gut and each track manages to rock harder and with more power than on "Revisited." JT may have been pushing for a more "mainstream-friendly" mix when he worked on "Revisited," but I feel that some of The Heartbreakers' power was drained from that version. You WANT The Lost '77 Mixes. This is how the original release could have/should have sounded. Incredible.
