Customer Reviews of L.A. Confidential
Retrospective of Bators' power-pop-garage material First issued in 1994 as "L.A. L.A." (with a slightly different configuration), this CD collects a number of sides that find the ex-Dead Boy (and at the time of these recordings, future-Lord of the New Church) pulling mid-60s garage rock into the late-70s punk era. Included are some of his early solo work, including a speedy, guitar-rich cover of The Choir's classic "It's Cold Outside," and the pop-punk guitar originals "Not That Way Anymore" and "The Last Year." British Invasion influences are rife in chiming Rickenbackers and the full-kit Moon-like drumming of "Circumstantial Evidence." <

>The track list bookends Bators' 1980 solo album, "Disconnected," with later waxings that include a punky cover of Richard Berry's (by way of The Sonics') "Have Love, Will Travel" and an unusually modernized take on The Moody Blues' "Story in Your Eyes." Also included is a ragged jam on "Louie, Louie," retitled "LA, L.A.," and featuring The Runaways on backing vocals. Bators' humor and stage presence is revealed on a live song introduction appropriately entitled "Morrison Rant." The album closes with a rehearsal take of Bators and Brian James jamming to The Damned's "Neat Neat Neat." <

>This isn't as cohesive an album as "Disconnected," but it winningly fleshes out Bators' pop period between The Dead Boys and The Lords of the New Church.
