First album in 12 years from the man who formed the Damned and wrote most of their first two albums, Damned Damned Damned & Music for Pleasure and wrote the very first UK Punk single "New Rose" Includes acoustic duet with Polystyrene of X-ray Spex fame. As one of the few true punk icons around today Brian has served time in two classic punk bands, the Damned and the Lords of the New Church, though it's with the latter that he made the most impact as his razorwire guitar lines coupled with Dave Tregunna's spooky basslines, Nicky Turner's thunderous drumming and the late great Stiv Bators' snarling. As a reminder that Brian was the man responsible for writing one of the first EVER British punk single, we get a version of "New Rose" as a 4 track bonus cd
G**E
Thunderous Rock Album from a legendary punk rock guitarist
I often wonder what some of my rock heroes have been up to, and Mr. James makes it easy to find out! The CD package comes with the EP of him performing some of the old great tunes which are solidly enjoyable retakes of the songs from days gone by - the actual CD is a solid pile of guitar rock that both enthuses and invigorates. Great fun all around and I'm happy to know I can still have music from a guitar player who arguably created some of the first punk singles. Thank you, Sir!
