I Fought the Law has to be a contender for the best rock album of 1966. As consistent as a Beatles album.

I like that the only reason I ever knew his version of "I Fought the Law" before I knew the Clash's was because of that episode of Cheers where Sam keeps playing it on the jukebox to taunt Rebecca after he boyfriend is arrested.

has the mono mix of the I Fought the Law LP ever been released on CD? I can only find mono versions of individual tracks online, and I haven't come across any vinyl rips of the mono LP. the mono version of 'I Fought the Law' (the song) has so much more punch than the stereo version.

When it's playing, "Let Her Dance" is the greatest rock song of all time.
Unbearably tragic loss, such lost potential. Also just learned he started taking LSD not long before he died; he probably would have made some primo psych rock (imo you can already kind of hear it in the jangling wall of guitars and propulsive garage beat of "Let Her Dance")
