With a well-received new album "Darkadelic" in the
shops the Damned continue to build on their
legendary status. When released earlier this year the
vinyl version of "The Best Of The Damned" even
went top 20 in the Indie album chart.
This album was originally released by Ace back in
1981 and pulled together the classic singles that the
band had waxed for the label like 'Love Song',
'Smash It Up' (Parts 1 and 2)', 'I just Can't Be Happy
Today', 'History Of The World', 'Hit Or Miss', their
Christmas single 'There Ain't No Sanity Clause' and
'Wait For The Blackout'. Not only are these now
seen as gold standard Damned tracks but also map
out a musical development when at Ace where they
moved from their punk roots to crafting melodic pop
songs that also took them into the charts. Better
still, when originally pressed up in 1981 the album
cannily also included those earlier classics punk
classics 'New Rose' and 'Neat Neat Neat'. There
even Captain Sensible and the Softies version of Jet
Boy, Jet Girl that appeared on the flip of 'Wait For
The Blackout' in 1982.
You don't mess with a classic so we have reissued
the original album as it was on this new CD version.
The only additional fairy-dust is supplied by new
liner notes from Ian Shirley which details the
journey of the Damned from 'New Rose' to "The
Best Of The Damned".
