Anyone else remember this LP, from 1982? I think when Captain Sensible (ex of the Damned) had hit singles with Happy Talk and Wot in 1982, he was seen as a bit of a joke/novelty performer, but WACF is, in my opinion, actually a pretty seriously good album, albeit with a lot of oddball humorous touches.

I shall be trotting off to see my namesake with The Damned, and Ruts DC, in a couple of weeks.
Hope there's no argument over name ownership. I'll have to remind him of a small drinks bill that's accrued quite a bit of interest down the years ...

It included this brilliant track, which was the best thing on it, IMO.
