Punk pioneers Crass continue their vinyl reissueseries ‘2 by 2 And Back Again’ with represses fromCaptain Sensible and Omega Tribe.
‘This Is Your Captain Speaking’, by CaptainSensible (a founding member of punk rock legendsThe Damned), mixes pure punk audaciousnesswith hints of psychedelia and goth as well aschoral music, to create something undeniably‘Captain’.
The EP features vocal contributions from the band,Dolly Mixture and engineer John Loder’s youngdaughter Tash. Penny Rimbaud, who wrote thelyrics for the first track, ‘What D'Ya Give’, featureson drums throughout.
Tongue-in-cheek and also raw, the EP representsa pivotal moment when two of punk’s originaltrailblazers joined forces. First released on 7” vinyl,limiting the sound, the new repressing has beenremastered for 12” at Abbey Road Studios,allowing this release to be heard as never before. This, plus enlarged replicas of the original covers,brings new gusto to the already radical sound.
