Trying to accurately document the history of the first punk
band to record, to chart and to tour America is a bit of a
challenge because changes in the line-up and (sometimes)
name changes just make it tough! The line-ups and other
bands that evolved into and from The Damned read like a
veritable "who's who" of punk and new wave!
Starting around 1975, Brian James (Brian James Robertson)
was in a punk band called London S.S. with Mick Jones,
Terry Chimes and Paul Simonon (which would leter evolve
into The Clash). The only thing that would help to keep
this straight would be one of those fancy "Rock Family
Trees" (and, yes, we're working on it, folks)! He soon
hooked up with Rat Scabies (Chris Miller) and Captain
Sensible (Ray Burns) in Nick Kent's Subterraneans. O More...
Review about The Damned From zero to hero ! | Reviewer: Fran
------ About the song Plan 9 Channel 7 performed by The Damned
I bought this album when it was first released, of all the tracks Plan 9 Channel 7 was my least favourite, I really didn't like it and seldom listened to it.
Now, all these years later it is the only track I play ! How or why I do not know. It is fantastic. 46

------ About the song Nice Cup Of Tea performed by The Damned
This song sums up a typical British Sunday morning, waking up with a hangover and doing the only thing possible to make it better - drinking the best drink of the day.
How this song never got to number one I'll never know. Maybe because these days it's a case of heading down to starbucks for a cup of lukewarm milky coffee.
I thoroughly recommend this song for that ultimate Sunday experience, a kind of alternative easy on Sunday morning.

------ About the song Shadow Of Love performed by The Damned
Thanx! There were a couple phrases I always got stuck on. BTW, have you noticed the similarity of Chris Cornell's You Know My Name (from James Bond Casino Royale flick) to Shadow of Love? Check it out...
