About This Item

Looking back 40 years now, October 1982's Strawberries remains the most unique, unusual album in The Damned's 46-year discography, a stone-cold psych-punk-pop/call-it-what-you-want classic, often overlooked or undervalued in it's singularity. Yet this fifth LP culmination was their most successful blend of their original 1976 punk energy with their moodier 1979-1984 post-punk progressions-including the pioneering goth they'd perfected on 1980's darker, more shadowy fourth album, The Black Album. Best of all, it most fully incorporated their multitude of '60s influences, from classic Nuggets-type garage rock to psychedelia to baroque and orchestral pop to mod/soul! Somehow, it also retains their former freak-flying spontaneity and juvenile abandon and wild streaks, encompassing Rat Scabies' typically explosive, post-Keith Moon drumming, guitarist Captain Sensible's unfettered lead runs, Dave Vanian's coolest crooning, and Paul Gray's anchoring, nimble-quick, bass, plus keyboard flourishes from incoming member Roman Jugg. The entire LP is flat out extraordinary start to finish, a monumental yet welcoming, fresh work of expertly crafted yet somehow still seat-of-the-pants-exciting melodic English pop. Perhaps that's the biggest reason Strawberries has held up so well for four decades it's such a refreshing long, strange trip to all the disparate places such a mélange of influences conjures, aided and abetted, crucially, by all four members' outstanding songwriting chops. This 40th Anniversary Edition comes complete with two non-LP singles recorded around the same time, with this same lineup InchLovely MoneyInch was released four months before Strawberries in June 1982 and features late '60s Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band zany Viv Stanshall's cameo as a mock tour guide lampooning London tourists; and InchFun FactoryInch which included an equally inspired guest star King Crimso
