Damned - The Chiswick Singles

NEW 7" VINYL BOX SET ON CHSWICK 2013.

7 X 7" VINYL SINGLES.

By the time that The Damned arrived at Chiswick in 1979 they had released four singles on Stiff and given one away, two LPs had been issued, one of which they weren’t keen on at the time and the other was already regarded as seminal. There had been a couple of line-up changes, Stiff had relieved themselves of their services; they had all formed different bands and then reformed as the Doomed due to legal matters over the name. Next, manager Rick Rogers and their publisher Rock Music recorded two new songs, ‘Love Song’ and ‘Burglar’ and wacked them out as the legendary ‘Dodgy Demo’ which was mostly given away at gigs. At a packed gig in London Chiswick Records were persuaded to sign them up, despite rumours of raucous behaviour on their part. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Damned_%28band%29
