The Brian James Gang - New Rose 2006 CD Single (2006)

Its always nice when you get sent something good in the post and to my surprise,this arrived just after its 2006 release via Mr Brian James himself. On my old youtube page Brian had spotted some old Lords Of The New Church footage he didn't have so through a message from his manager,contacted me and asked if I could send it his way which I did. And this was my reward.

Everyone knows New Rose was the first British Punk single and everyone knows that Brian James wrote it so this was a 30th anniversary celebration kind of thing to celebrate such a classic. Anyone that liked The Lords Of The New Church would also know track two as well (Sham and Lords fans will be pleased to know Dave "Kermit" Treganna plays bass with The Brian James Gang too) The song V.I.P. is on the self titled Brian James Gang CD album which is available to buy cheaply enough and is recommended. What this CD single does have that you wouldn't of heard if you don't own it is a 45 minute interview with Brian at the end hence the size of the file. Its interesting stuff if you can get past the "cafe" background noises.
