The Damned

Iconoclassic reissues The Damned's fifth album, 1982's Strawberries, as a 2-CD deluxe edition.  The top 20 entry on the U.K. albums chart has been expanded with 15 bonus tracks including the non-LP singles "Lovely Money," boasting a cameo from Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band's Viv Stanshall, and "Fun Factory," with guest Robert Fripp. It also collects the associated B-sides and non-LP tracks from the era as well as the single edit of "Dozen Girls" and five live tracks recorded the month of Strawberries' release.  These bonus tracks paint a full portrait of The Damned's many sonic excursions of the period.  The 40th Anniversary Edition has been remastered by Grammy Award-winning engineer Mark Wilder at Battery Studios, and includes a 20-page booklet designed by Edward ODowd with liner notes penned by Jack Rabid (editor/publisher of The Big Takeover).
