The first album still sounds great. It's up there with "Damned Damned Damned" for me.



I always thought it was a patchy affair. Actually sold it in 1977, but that because I needed the money to get to Marc Bolan's funeral. (I was still in school)

Bought it again a few years later. Played it a year or so ago and it seemed even patchier. When it's good (Hanging Around, the singles) it's really good, but I never particularly liked, say, Ugly. And Princess Of The Street, which was one of my favourites when I was 16, made me feel uncomfortable.

They did make some great singles, though. The likes of No More Heroes and their cover of Walk On By have aged really well.
