Aint nothing cooler than Poison Ivy in a leopard suit with that awesome red guitar next to Lux in high heels. Such a fun band, Love them!

[@jpf119]

(Orange Gretsch guitar)

[@caribman10]

One of the best rockabilly guitar players ever, and never got credit for it. POISON IVY!

[@joefarang]

Damn right.100% legend.

[@jakesnacks1149]

I just wonder what she's doing now

[@caribman10]

​@@jakesnacks1149 Last time I saw Robert Gordon I asked him to hire her.....

[@sidwhitten7126]

Raw and powerful rockin'

[@danilogiannibirolo1187]

where is she now Poison Ivy?

[@richardmartinez5032]

I dig Ivy's response: "The Cramps make tomorrow look like yesterday". Very cool and intelligent. This band can rock, I've just discovered them and holy shit! I feel like the world is breaking wide open for the first time!

[@janekatalane5653]

Richard Martinez, i like your comment. in part because it takes me back to when initially heard them (back in the mid 80's) and felt similar to you upon hearing them, and i'm still a fan as i write this. also, i'm happy you discovered them and it's so nice to read your passion for this band. you have great ears for music. welcome to the (Cramps) 'drug train'...

[@richardmartinez5032]

Thanks, Jane. This is Rock n Roll the way it should be played and performed: Raw, Passionate, Emotional, on the edge and unapologetic. This music is really the most powerful force on the planet and it's no wonder that the powers that be fear it and seek to de-claw, de-fang and otherwise castrate it through their control of the music 'Inustry'.

[@janekatalane5653]

Richard Martinez, aw. you're very welcome. and thanks for such a nice reply back. and what you wrote about the Cramps/rock n roll music, you said it so perfectly. really hit the nail on the head. especially about it being unapologetic. amen to that. that's part of why i've loved the Cramps for as long as i have. they were inspired by (and respected) classic rock n roll, but put their own spin on it and while passionate about the music they made, there was this campy b-movie-esque side to them that made it so much fun. and yet all the while still maintaining their dedication to rock n roll. and as you said, the industry may have feared it and hated it, but i've noticed that a lot of time, great music tends to fall upon deaf ears. some people may never get it, but that's okay, we get it, a lot of people get it and we love The Cramps for it... still so glad you found them. i love that feeling of discovering a band that's new to me. like that, 'where has this band been all my life, they're amazing!' kind of feeling. keep on riding the Cramps drug train, it's quite a trip. pun intended, of course. lol...

[@richardmartinez5032]

ivy's sound presence is HUGE! It comes as no surprise that she mentions Link Wray and the power of his understated simplicity as one of her main influences. The world needs an explosion of live Rock n Roll bands like when The Beatles broke out in 1964 here in The States and spread across The Planet inspiring people to believe that they could do the same! Ah, we'll see, we'll see: - )

[@DAREALAndyRampage]

HAHAHAHA!! .. i Still "Feel" like that.. & its Been.. since the 80's!!

[@toastoftown6404]

My favorite front man. Fearless rocker!!!

[@nurknanker6105]

Like King Kong onstage! Unchained.

[@deadtelecaster1427]

I can't say enough good things about The Cramps! The Real Deal!

[@drumheadj3024]

😮😮😮one of the best live versions on tv !!!!

[@sportscarsmovies]

Every evening we had a fabulous rock band on live TV ( nulle part ailleurs - canal+ channel ) with a great sound catcher . It's all over now , French TV is a trash can...

[@missscarlett8117]

God bless the Cramps!

7:35..Very rare Poison Ivy smile!

[@nurknanker6105]

Onstage show biz, she smiled often whenever we spied her off it.

[@GaylordBonnafous]

Haha very awkward interview... I'm French and fluent in english, and I can tell you that the translations are very bad, which leads to lot of misunderstandings. The interviewer is very kind but awkward. The band couldn't be more uncomfortable, and their jokes are totally misunderstood. That's almost surreal.

[@igorjajic6898]

FROG HUMOR///PATHETIC

[@cristiansalinas5027]

Que bomba sexual es POISON IVY!! LUX es un autentico showman!!!

[@GilbertSyndrome]

Ivy is eternally gorgeous.

[@miguelangelanaya8486]

Poison Ivy the hottest women in Rock N Roll!!!

[@prisutan]

No... She's was not hotter then Patricia Morrison was!

[@gmar7836]

Poison really fills out that leotard quite well.

[@nurknanker6105]

The most telegenic couple in Rock & Roll. "Luxe's" make-up is perfect. NO more bell bottom bummers!!

[@scootersixstring]

What a surprise to find this video. This is actually really insanely funny! French interpreters in suits . . . Lux being all polite and charming . . . and Ivy looking strikingly beautiful. I really miss this band.

[@GilbertSyndrome]

There'll never be another.

[@ronniechilds2002]

If I were them I would have gotten up and left. Being the only ones in the room not knowing what the hosts are babbling on about puts them at an unfair advantage. They were a lot more gracious than I would have been.

[@alainclement9244]

You just dont understand thes situation sause you dont speak french...Absolutely no offense here, In fact, it's a french TV show , but with a lot of "second degree humour", and the man facing them that they show at 5: 31 is Claude lelouch, french movie maker, who made" A man and a woman"...so, at one moment, knowing that Ivy and Lux have a lot os old movies in their private collection, they ask the cramps if they have a lot of Claude Lelouch movies in it....The other thing is that they have earphones for transaltion, and they needed one/two seconds to hear the translation, that give a strange impression to their way of answering.....But i saw the whole interview "live", i can tell you "Nulle part ailleurs" was a great good rock'n roll show, the bands playing always live, facing an audience of loyal fans...Iggy Pop loved a lot this TV show, just type "nulle part ailleurs live"..take a look on this Garbage show, for instance...:kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHy5iqeKe9uFgbssi=flf8YmiRsCdiWo-2

[@717jonpaul]

That Guitar kills me!! Poisen!! Rocks!!😂

[@danilogiannibirolo1187]

French tv mainstream is better than other countries but the journalist didn't understand that Lux talked about surrealism a french form of art. The interview was about Flamejob album where The Cramps wrote something about the taste in the art by Man Ray. She was confortable in tv but they were too clever for mainstream and for big audience. So true what Poison Ivy said about grunge!!

[@nurknanker6105]

Ne plus ULTRA!!

[@TheInstallations]

The translator was crap

[@sportscarsmovies]

@@TheInstallations Exceptionnaly , the rock specialist , Antoine De Caunes was not here .

[@prokesuk]

Every time I see a video of a band playing on a French tv show the host blathers on and on while the band is all set to go.

[@cmdredstrakerofshado1159]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@gregoryh9442]

It’s the worst.

[@hervepainchault3913]

la bonne époque de canal !

[@blakemoreln]

Geez, Ivy rocks the hell out of this...

[@GilbertSyndrome]

Props to them for being so patient... As I have no idea wtf is happening.

Best Poison Ivy quote ever: The Cramps make tomorrow look like yesterday! 🤣👍🏼

Hilarious! The dubbing kills me hahahahaa

RIP #LUX

[@eustacequinlank7418]

I wish I could have seen them live. What's Poison Ivy up to now?

[@paulluna8099]

Man Beadle probably working or retired. I am not sure if the group made a whole lot of money but they did love performing.

[@paulluna8099]

@Dag Hagall you do understand the concept of some leaving the music industry and work in another field such as medicine, education, or some other field. I cannot believe this concept completely flew over your head. This performance was from the mid 1990's indicating she maybe in in her 50's or 60's by now therefore retirement from performing or working in another field.

[@mimi1o8]

@@paulluna8099 I heard that one of the band members passed away, she left everything behind become a Bhuddist and live with her cats .

[@fabiopunk1661]

6:51 poor Ivy must have felt really out of place....

[@richardmartinez5032]

The BEST Response EVER! "The Cramps make tomorrow look like yesterday". That is the epitome of cool self-possession and knowing who you are and your place.

[@karinjeffrey7981]

Ivy felt out of place? Never!

Perfection.

How many countless innocent microphone stands had to be sacrificed to keep the twang flowing? The Red headed Foster child of Gretsch and her high heeled serial microphone stand murdering sweaty salamander man from Mars. Look Ma, no lip synching! It's live on TV, imagine? I concur. Lets get the old footage preserved....for the love of Ivy.....yeah yeah.

Too bad about the frog noises over their responses in the interview
