this dude picks some of the coolest songs.

THIS is the reason you’re my favorite guitar channel. KEEP THE PUNK SONGS COMING

[@panagiotisexplorer213]

I just discovered the channel and even though I’m mostly a metal guy I say finally someone who teaches different styles like punk, indie etc. Really good song choices!

[@motioninmind6015]

Wow, this song! Thank you for bringing stuff like this to KZbin, no one else does it like you.

[@tobig.9562]

Thank you. The damned are one of my favourites! As much as i love their (legendary and rightfully so) debut and james' guitar work, i think their best stuff was made from machine gun etiquette, black album up to strawberries. Fantastic Band. Your channel is pure gold.

[@rossredhead2020]

Thank you for posting this lesson. Nice to see early damned tracks acknowledged. Brian James is an amazing guitarist and songwriter.

[@SSRT_JubyDuby8742]

I can remember going into Penny Lane (a record shop in Liverpool) in 1979 and asking if they had a Damned song book. The fella behind the counter wet himself with laughter and called attention to my request to other shop employees and customers, remarking "just play E, a songbook for the Damned, I 've heard it all now ". They were and still remain my favourite punk band. Fantastic lesson as always Adrian, if you get 'round to doing them again..Feel the Pain or Idiot box please. 😎🎸✅

[@sidneymorris2254]

I remember the name of that shop but can't remember where it was? Great memories!

[@PaulJonesy]

Feel the Pain, great song.

[@SSRT_JubyDuby8742]

@@sidneymorris2254 it was just down the road from the Cavern and in front of the old Radio City tower.

[@sidneymorris2254]

@@SSRT_JubyDuby8742 yeah that's right cheers

[@frozenborderline2109]

Coincidentally, I've just had the album on a loop for the past week or so. Superlative taste and great work as always.

[@laverdanick]

Cracking lesson. If you like Brian James, check out his later work in Lords Of The New Church, with the late Stiv Bators from the Dead Boys another classic punk band.

[@MercurialToys]

I had a gut feeling you would pick "Fan Club" from the two songs I suggested, and "Fan Club" was really the one I wanted to hear you do. I can't wait to have a go at this tonight when I'm home. Great work as always Adrian. You would be a dream guitarist to have in band.

[@DocManFR]

The Damned, a classic song, a superb Les Paul, great playing. A nice vid. Thanks Adrian!

[@Gazzpunk]

Fantastic, great tone

[@russell90ful]

brilliant love early damned just for the record my budgie was throwing himself off the side of the cage when I watched this more 70s English punk please stranglers the jam the clash etc. classic thank you

[@josephduffy6455]

Thank you adrian i have always wanted to learn fan club thank you for making this possible

[@commoneuropeanstarling]

Thanks for this. Can you do Plan 9 Channel 7 please?

[@AndrewAHayes]

Thanks for fulfilling my request for songs by The Damned, a wicked choice Ade! Brian James has released some awesome solo material over the years, a particular favourite being The Guitar That Dripped Blood and the track from that album "Becoming A Nuisance" Brian plays a Squier Telecaster that will knock the socks off any Fender Telecaster, despite having a collection of Fender Tele's and other styles of guitar he uses the Squier 99% of the time, he did tell me the story behind acquiring the Squier but I was quite tipsy and forgot it by the next morning

[@AndrewAHayes]

If you are searching for Brian James on streaming sites such as Spotify be aware there are two Brian James's, the other being a funk like musician, you will realise you have the wrong Brian though.

[@CAP21]

Great playing, great instructor, and one beautiful Les Paul👍. Thank you Sir for sharing

[@PaulJonesy]

Another great video Adrian, nice to see Brian James getting some recognition.

[@vincewise855]

Great tuition and a truly great punk classic.cheers Vin U.K

[@stevenimeson902]

Love these riffs! Great album too

[@bobowrathsovine.]

I thought Captain Sensible was the only guitarist at least until the band regrouped after breaking up. In 2006 I was in San Diego and heard him talking live on a now defunct station 91.1X the cutting edge of rock.

[@67mck95]

Cheers for this you pick excellent songs and play very very well ......brilliant

[@tolvajakos]

[@rabmbo]

Most excellent. Some Captain Sensible from Machine Gun Etiquette, The Black Album or Strawberries would be much appreciated.

[@alejandrohualdez5550]

Another top quality tutorial, as usual. But wait.......Is that 'Smash it Up parts l & ll' I see in the distance.....?

[@PDDistVideo]

incredible.

[@oxrjbizzle1984y]

awesome, thanx adrian, ive been hoping you would get to some damned stuff! new rose would be killer, as well as really anything else from that album, as every song on there is classic!

[@YekaterinaMezhennaya]

There is a video on The Damned youtube channel where Captain Sensible teaches New Rose.

[@jacobhenderson1763]

My favorite damned song

[@MRGINCAT]

Wonderful stuff! And who would have been thinking m7's were an an integral part of Punk(?) Anyway, Julie and I strolled over from Mayday hospital to the party. Julie was a wonderful nurse (and a victim of the errant ways of my youth. Sorry Julie!) We get through the front door and ... lo and behold ....Sensible is bending over a guy who has passed out in the hallway, holding a cigarette in his hand (Sensible that is). Quoth he (in sarf London drawl) "Oh my god ... I stuck it in his eye" ... and naturally a good time was had by all. Moral ... sometimes things aren't as bad as they might seem. Forthcoming extract from "The Modern Aesop" by Iben Bijiben.

[@thefruitfarmer3000]

Great vid, I can play it now. Would like you to do Feel the Pain.

[@NoSurrenderTV-v8i]

Have you got a lesson for smash it up part one.

[@matthewpollard2843]

could you please do Turning Japanese by The Vapors?

[@waltm8011]

Aint it fun bt Dead Boys. Thx😉👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@davecarpenter2517]

Adrian, you're one of the few teachers on KZbin who actually seem as if the guitar is part of your genetic makeup. Faultless playing.

[@russell90ful]

oh how could I have forgotten the sex pistols uk subs you know the original punk bands from the 70s

[@dgaz3057]

how did these artists come up with these riffs...

[@gregorystoner4708]

Thanks again ! For being you.

[@petercullum1374]

[@Mr_Lupine]

Great stuff, although you should play that on an SG ! Brian James was a criminally ignored guitarist. My favourite.

[@outsideview7418]

Talkin' about punk rock classics, Holiday in Cambodia?? thanks Adrian.

[@rabmbo]

Any chance of Plan 9 Channel 7 Adrian? There's some pretty nifty Captain Sensible geetaring on that! As there is on all of Machine Gun Etiquette. Also a good opportunity to treat yourself to an SG while you're at it :)

[@davidgiudice1940]
