-
The
third
ever
release
on
Damaged
Goods
was
the
original
vinyl
version
of
this
album.
(FNARRLP3)
‘Terminal
Stupid’,
their
one
and
only
single
was
one
of
my
favourite
singles
from
1977
and
in
1988
I
searched
out
lead
singer
Giovanni
Dadomo
and
together
we
put
together
this
album.
It
features
both
sides
of
their
that
7”
plus
another
track
they
released
on
the
Beggars
Banquet
compilation
‘Streets’
(Beggars
first
release),
although
they
had
to
change
their
name
(to
Arthur
Comix)
as
Beggars
were
worried
about
the
word
‘shits’
on
the
cover
of
their
album!
Anyway
we
found
another
six
or
so
tracks,
mastered
it
with
Dave
Goodman
and
put
it
out,
at
the
time
Gio
had
also
unearthed
one
of
the
three
tracks
that
he
cowrote
and
recorded
with
The
Damned,
‘There
‘Aint
No
Sanity
Clause’
is
included
on
the
LP
&
CD.
This
is
a
review
of
the
original
album
from
the
Trouser
Press
website....
“The
hazard
of
anyone-can-do-it
musical
movements
is
what
might
get
dragged
in.
Fortunately,
the
jokey
Snivelling
Shits
-
two
London
rock
critics
(singer
Giovanni
Dadomo
and
guitarist
Dave
Fudger)
and
such
musician
friends
as
Steve
Nicol
of
the
Hot
Rods
and
bassist
Steve
Lillywhite
-
were
sharply
skilled
at
smuttily
satirising
the
sounds
of
'77.
As
anthologised
in
this
archival
colored-vinyl
document,
the
band's
brief
recording
career
(eight
whole
tracks,
including
the
viciously
irreverent
"isgodaman?,"
originally
released
on
a
Beggars
Banquet
compilation
LP
under
the
name
Arthur
Comics?)
included
incisive
swipes
at
the
Sex
Pistols,
John
Cooper
Clarke
("I
Wanna
Be
Your
Biro")
and
the
Velvet
Underground.”
That's
history
for
you!
