Live at Max's Kansas City is a live album by The Heartbreakers. Recorded at a "reunion"/"farewell" show on September 16, 1978 at the famous Max's Kansas City nightclub, the album's performance — loud, sloppy, and laden with bawdy introductions and/or lyric changes to many of the familiar songs from their only studio album, L.A.M.F. — further cemented the band's live reputation. A classic of early punk rock, the album has been called "probably the best official document of any New York band of the era."
Released on Max's Kansas City Records and in England on Beggars Banquet Records through a logo deal with Max's Kansas City, the album was an immediate success upon its release in July 1979. As Robert Christgau put it, "This captures the boys in all their rowdy, rabble-rousing abandon, and I know that when I feel like hearing them I'll be pulling it off the shelf."
About these two songs on this single:
"All By Myself" (Lure, Nolan)
This song was deleted from the 1995 CD reissue and replaced with the version from the later shows with Jerry Nolan on drums. It was restored on the 2015 vinyl reissue. On the original version, Styx makes a mistake and the band has to restart the song, prompting Thunders to quip "We're not the most professional band in the world."
"Milk Me" (Johnny Thunders)
The song was originally entitled "Chatterbox" on the New York Dolls' second album Too Much Too Soon and "Leave Me Alone"on So Alone
Personnel
Johnny Thunders - guitar, vocals
Walter Lure - guitar, vocals
Billy Rath - bass
Ty Styx - drums
Styx's stint in the band was brief. The band played at Max's on August 18th and 19th with Lee Crystal on drums. Styx joined the band for the two gigs in September that resulted in the live album, and for a short tour that included gigs in Los Angeles and San Francisco. He was replaced by Tony Machine by the time the band next played at Max's on November 18th. Machine continued to play with the band until Jerry Nolan returned in March 1979.
Condition is Used. Shows no signs of wear, I don’t think it was ever actually played. I don’t have a turntable to test it, but then if I did I wouldn’t sell it!
