James, Brian - The Brian James Gang (CD) |-

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
