Re: STRAWBERRIES - the Damned
In my opinion, it is one of the Damned's best albums after MGE & The Black Album.Burn e 77 wrote:"Strawberries" and cream anyone!!!....... a neat album from the Damned... anyone else into it?!?

Some of their best songs, such as Generals, Ignite, Gun Fury, Stranger On The Town,
Bad Time For Bonzo etc, are on this album.
The Deluxe edition with all the b-sides is superb.
Freedom, there ain't no f**king freedom!!!!

Bought it about 8 times in all it's different guises - Love it to bits - melodic, jolly good fun pop at it's best.

One of my favourite albums

Re: STRAWBERRIES - the Damned
Yeah, one of my favourites too. Got the album when it came out,
with the scratch-n-sniff Strawberry insert too.

That's proper quality merchandise, with a smell that has now lingered for 29 years.
Great album.

Re: STRAWBERRIES - the Damned
I loved the vinyl version as the sleeve smelt of strawberries. I think the Damned are possibly the best punk 'singles' band there has been, with respect to their albums always being a bit disappointing imho. One of THE best debut singles ever imho too, even beating Grip by our band, sacrilege of me though that will seem to someBurn e 77 wrote:"Strawberries" and cream anyone!!!....... a neat album from the Damned... anyone else into it?!?

Re: STRAWBERRIES - the Damned
Excellent album. The Damned produced a few cracking albums. "The Black Album", "Strawberries" & "Machine Gun Etiquette" are my favourites. I read somewhere that they are touring in November and playing the two albums "Damned Damned Damned" & "The Black Album" in their entirety.
