Anyone recommend this, it
seems a bit pricey.

I don't have this, or anything after (and including) Phantasmagoria, but I have seen it and I suppose it's really for completeists, since it includes Peel Sessions (which would be appealing) and other edits, which I wouldn't care too much about.
It IS expensive though. Out of all The Damned albums I play Machine Gun Etiquette the most. And Strawberries. And The Black Album. Oh hell, I love em all ;-)
If you decide to get it, let us know here. I am quite curious about it.

Yeah, it is expensive for 3 discs isn't it.
Not bought that, but I did get their Grave Disorder LP from a few years ago, which found Sensible back in the ranks. It's almost unexpectly good IMO, being somewhere between MGE & The Black Album. And the (then) new stuff sounded great when I saw them live a few years back.
My fave is still the first though. Love it!!

My first two "Punk" purchases
were The Damnned's "Neat Neat Neat" no Pic-Sleeve : (
and the Pistols "God Save The Queen" a super thick
very sturdy pressing that i played the heck out
of and it was still fine.
Picked up "Damned Damned Damned"
on import , alas it was not the misprint
back cover with Eddie & The Hot Rods.
Now i have a cd reissue of "DDD",
and am thinking about getting a vinyl
re-ish.
Are the Peel Sessions available
as a stand alone disc ?

Yes, tracklisting here...

though it comes with the following disclaimer...
'audiophiles may detect a loss of sound quality on tracks 10-13. That's because the original master tapes 'went missing' and all we could find was a copy that Rat made when they were first broadcast.
The band thought you would still like to hear them. As Peelie said 'there may be a bit of surface noise here - but life itself is not without surface noise".
Still, a shame cos that 1979 session was probably my fave session of theirs.
