Time for your daily dose of the Damned...
Boy is my face red. I just realized that I had my YouTube playlist settings on private. For some, if not most of the videos I posted on here.
Talk about a senior moment *damn it*
I fixed it so we should be good. I think.
Today's video is a favorite of mine and not just bc of the ladies parading the stage in their knickers with their lovely bums...nor is it bc of the guy in drag who looks alot like Amy Winehouse.
It could be said that Screaming Lord Sutch was a precursor of the Damned. At the very least, influential.
One of the first Damned CD's I bought (called Eternally Damned -a greatest hits comp) I believe mentioned them playing a few gigs together. Not positive about the last part but I will say if you listen to Lord Sutch's vocals they pay an eerie resemblance to those of Dave Vanian.
There's a great YouTube vid of SLS scaring the piss out of little girls in the 60's as he lurches around stage, dressed as Lon Chaney from the movie London after Midnight, crooning a tune called Jack the Ripper.
I would have posted that vid but in the end (yes the pun was intentional) it was the women's posterior that swayed my vote.
