Rat was the Keith Moon of Punk!!
Back in the day was with my mate in his work van going somewhere with motorbike in back: There was a CB radio in the van and we were messing about with it> Ended up chatting to Rat! seemed like a sound bloke and had a few good stories, was less than complimentary about the Captain IIRC........
Sensible an absolute genius guitar player , and the drum sound on this is brilliant .
Peelie - my god I miss you mate
The Damned was the most unique Punk Rock band in late 70s, John Peel radio programs now a diamond in music history
I love the Damned more than words can describe. They’ve been my favorite band for at least 4 decades now. I’ve been loyal and faithful through thick and thin. That said, the crown for “most unique punk rock band in the late 70’s” would definitely have to go to Wire. The Damned are hands down my favorite, and certainly unique… but no one was as unique as Wire were on their first three albums.
grew up listening to peel, still no one comes close to him for bringing real music to the people
Marvellous renditions from one of the greatest Rock 'N' Roll albums of all time.
Back when the wireless was good. Remember that ??
The version of Burglar in this Peel Session is Brilliant. Thanks for uploading.. Bringing back memories...
"I'll nick anything that's removable, including John Peel's record collection!" LOL
Back in the mid to late 70s I lived in San francisco. So, one evening I am hanging out in North Beach and in place next door to the Mabuhay where I was lamenting that the Damned were playing next door but they were sold out. This guy on crutches tells me if I help him he can get me into the show. I would have helped him anyway but that was icing on my cake to get in. I helped him and he ended up hobbling up to the stage. It turned out he was the singer or the Damned! Way beyond cool! Turns out he had broken his leg stage diving.. Big yee haw!
What?!?!?!?!? Amazing.
Far fucking out...
Thanks for share, this is a masterpiece, love the melody dee version
I remember this back in the day, I had it on a cheap but cheerful BASF tape! Great tracks, stunning energy ;D
The Damned! Punk rockers who could play and sing very well in those days. John Peel was a great DJ. These sessions were great.
Beautiful thanks Damned and John Peel . Remember this like it was yesterday .
YOU CAN NICK ANYTHING BUT PLEASE NOT JOHN PEELS RECORD COLLECTION !!!!
This is one helluva Peel session and these four songs are played sensationally with perhaps even more energy than the album versions.
With the defiant spoken words before Melody Lee, the Damned proved all their detractors wrong with this performance. Many critics had given their second album, Music For Pleasure (November 77) a lukewarm response and some of the public were beginning to have their doubts about the Damned. But these were completely dispelled with the release of their third album, Machine Gun Etiquette (November 79), one of the all-time great punk albums.
Amazingly, all the four Peel songs here were being heard for the first time ever. Love Song and I'm A Burglar were first issued as a freebie given away to the first 250 people who attended shows at the Electric Ballroom on December 23, 1978 and the Croydon Greyhound on January 7, 1979. Melody Lee and Looking At You wound up on Machine Gun Etiquette. So these are early live versions of four very famous Damned songs, and with something to prove, the boys put everything they had into them
. You must listen, for the results are extraordinary. John Peel to the rescue again. All my English mates hold him in the highest esteem. He was a true lover and collector of fine music and his broadcasts shaped many a young person's taste in music over the years. (And a big thanks to vibracobra23 whose channel is the gold standard for Peel sessions.)
Damned & Peel = pleasure
Carl Fry hi mate
willieluncheonette evening willie. Great recording isnt it.
Carl Fry for sure such great music in England then. I just talked to my girlfriend today. She was playing Coral. She is crazy about them. Do you know them?
willieluncheonette not a clue, but maybe they play a good reef. Lol.
After tea out playing footie back in time to listen to peel on my grans TV which could receive radio1and2 in perfect quality although sadly in Mono.great days late 70s early 80s.god bless John and all the punks we've lost.
Great versions of quality tunes👌
Listened tothese peel sessions every night religiously in my teens and used to tape them to play back to my mates next day.SOmme of them were better than studio versions and should have been released on vynil.Quality sound and real good musicians for the day.
Great version of MC5s Looking At You.
True ! But i do not understand who is the singer . Could be Algy ?
I first saw the damned in 78, with brian,@ the nashville rooms. when they came back with Ray on gtar/algy on bass, it was a different ball game..best band still in existance
HOLY SHIT! How have I never heard this before?
The bassist Algy Ward's band was called Tank. Check out The Accused's cover of Tank's "Filth Hounds of Hades".Good stuff!
And he was in the mighty Aussie legends THE SAINTS before the Damned!
excellent... the best when i was listening to them circa 1977/78... and then fell out with them during 80's... and went all the way to scotland to locate a damned lp which i really feel was once owned by my older brother and then mick hodge seemed to get hold of it and then... the rest is history.
ただ、カッコ良い！damnedがちゃんと評価されるのはいつなんでしょう？
未だ現役で、カッコ良い！

Fantastic session, great playing from The Damned.
The bass is not a bass , is a tank !!
Thank you for uploading.
Peel.....legend
Legend for marrying a 15-year-old in The States and giving STD to a 15 yo girl in the UK (also made pregnant). Mini Jimmy Saville - who just happened to pave the way for many great punk bands.
@@jacqueshughes3085 evidence? Proof?
@@jacqueshughes3085 NVM, I am fkn dumb. Fuck dude......ffffffff
in the photo above, either Rat is going through a " Sweet" moment or that is the bassist from the Sweet lol

Brilliant song from the 20th century … just for you is a Love Song. Hahaha. Most folk loved the 20th century music, a golden age of creativity. Hahaha.
Melody lee ♥
Fuck I miss John peel man I just the edge of his genius being only 30 lads and lasses used to listen to him on my stereo Walkman R.I.P
All those "Peelytapes" where I edited out John's voice, such a huge influence for us weirdos/ non mainstream Hoomans
30? More than that sir.
Thank you sooo mutch VibraCobra23! And thank's the BBC! Kiss from France.
The Damned are and were a integral part of my juvenile delinquency
The Damned can fucking play. So tight.
Scabies distinctly sounds like Tommy Cooper...haha.. Maybe it was? Memorable Peel session. I don't think this was a Peel session release on vinyl which is a shame.
vibracobra i think i love you

I have been able to keep a 35 yr old peel sessions vinyl unopened
Strange Fruit?
@@Kelly14UK Yes. Instead of the typical silver this one is a bronze 040
@@mikemike8142 I remember one or two like that. Damned Peel Sessions 76 was that colour. I'm positive .
The 1977 one was silver.
@@Kelly14UK also there is one I have on cassette with Stretcher Case baby. It is a peel sessions
The Clash is the only band...unless you are The Damned
Love Song: The best track about train spotting ever written.

Sensible. It's a session, not a live recording.

Brilliant band The Damned !!! Angst-ridden punk rock band.
A lot of adjectives come to mind to describe the Damned. "Angst-ridden" is not one of them
Angst?

That was Captain Sensible on guitar.
