The Damned Favourite Track

[theraven1979]

Well remembered - Pretty sure about this.

Jim

Isn't JJ a massive fan of Phantasmagoria? Pretty sure it was in his Top 10 albums of all time.

Love The Damned, torn between DDD or MGE, with DDD just nicking it.

[Rockula]

Just a reminder for Damned fans that, apart from Vanian and Sensible with the current line-up, Rat and Brian James have just started doing some dates performing DDD and MFP songs. So, not exactly 'two for the price of one' but close enough?.......

Saw them last Friday in Pontypool and it was superb.
Brian James is an awesome guitarist and as i have said on the forum before,
i think that Rat is the best punk drummer (i know others disagree).

Off to see them in Bristol on 23rd as well.

all things considered i also think scabies is the best punk drummer still.
his fill ins and energy just fantastic.he was the damned.

Strawberries has to be their best album in my view. I've always considered it to be their "Raven" in the sense that they were at the peak of their musical abilities and creativity. It's all subjective but every track on the album is brilliant (and it smelt of Strawberries which was nice).

[jason]

Street of dreams is a brilliant track. The instrumental passage is very Stranglerish.

[Alexinblack]

Nasty has been a song I really like by them.

[Lobotomy]

Its gotta be I Just Can't Be Happy Today. Under The Floor Again and Plan 9 are close though.

[theraven1979]

Just the whole of Strawberries - such jolly wonderful fun!
