American Wino by The Lewd has to be one of my most favorite punk rock records from the early eighties hardcore scene. After reading a favorable review in Maximum Rock And Roll, I marched down to the local record store (The Inner Sleeve, to whom I am forever grateful) and picked up a copy of this excellent record. The band originated from Seattle but later moved to San Francisco. This CD (unfortunately out of print) collects the bands first single, the American Wino LP and some demo’s and out-takes.
