Another thin about GG Allin that is often overlooked is if you take away 
the FILTH AND THE FURY of his persona, a lot of his songs are actually 
very good. His early song "You Hate Me & I Hate You" is on the Faster & 
Louder, Rhino early hardcore comp. alongside songs by folks like Agent 
Orange, The Dils, Germs, Ch3, etc. On Vol. 2, if memory serves. Vol. 1 
had Dead Kennedys and I forget who else That was a good series.

Also worth checking out is the bootleg of GG's final show, taken just hours before his death. A few songs are played at some NYC venue. Looks more like someone's garage than a proper club. The show gets shut down and GG proceeds to walk down the street buck-naked before some crusty punks find him some clothes. It ends with him and said punks jumping in a cab, leaving the cameraman to watch as they drive away and that's where it ends. Apparently, what followed was he went to someone's apartment, shot heroin and died.
