The classic 1977 punk album – remastered ‘lost ’77 mixes’ edition.

Limited edition in transparent purple vinyl LP - *first time* this edition not in black.
Gatefold sleeve, with notes by Thunders biographer Nina Antonia.

In 1977 this classic punk album had a sound flaw and wasn't heard properly until it was recompiled in 1994 - after both former New York Dolls Johnny Thunders and Jerry Nolan had died. Now songs like Born to Lose and Chinese Rocks are acclaimed as punk anthems. The album was remastered and repackaged in 2017 to celebrate its 40th anniversary, but has only ever been in black vinyl since then.

 "That 'L.A.M.F.', the only album by Johnny Thunders' swaggering, smacked-up post New York Dolls outfit, The Heartbreakers, is one of New York punk's defining artefacts (despite being recorded in Britain), is beyond dispute.  12 songs that put the guitarist's abiding passions - Chuck Berry, The Rolling Stones, Phil Spector and Shadow Morton girl groups, glam, garage, trash and junk - in perfect, speedy collision." - Damien Love, Uncut mag, 9/10.

6-Page Feature in MOJO.
