The Black Album

The Damned – The Black Album – UK 1985 – MISSPRESS – Reissue – Big Beat Records – DAM 3

This album actually plays Melvin Daniels Tracks (Labels are the correct Damned Black Album Labels – see pics)

Melvin Daniels was a Blues/Jazz artist and I think the tracks featured on this album are circa 1950’s.

To give you an idea of what the actual fuck is going on here…

Essentially this is the first track (the rest follows this general pattern)…
