One of the most fantastic "unknown" albums in HISTORY!!
This album is absolutely fantastic. I love it from cover to cover. This album is DEFINITELY a must hear.

There is such a thing as good trash music!
If you loved Pink Flamingos, you will love this album. The King of trash has compiled the most funniest, and curiously entertaining mixture of oldies music ever compiled on one album. You will laugh, cry, and maybe vomit. But it's all in good....uh BAD taste.

John Waters' taste for good music finally hits CD!
John Waters had always pushed the copyright rules by including fantastic 50s rock songs in his early films (Mondo Trasho, Multiple Maniacs, Pink Flamingos & Female Trouble). Finally, one of the soundtracks has graced CD shelves! A few of the songs from the original film have changed ("16 Candles" by the Crests is now "Happy Happy Birthday Baby"), but overall, the music is great! These soundtracks were a precursor to John's soundtrack for "Hairspray", so check this out if you're into sleazy little-heard oldies! My favorites are the instrumentals: they're just so sleazy! Check out "The Swag" and "Intoxica", plus Little Richards "The Girl Can't Help It" reminds me of Divine shashaying down Baltimore streets!
