Editorial Reviews

In 1967 JOHN DU CANN joined ATTACK. Other band members at the time were KEITH HODGE, ROGER DEANE and RICHARD SHIRMAN. Their managers offices were in Carnaby Street and they played gigs with THE MOVE and THE SMALL FACES and then got a four single deal with DECCA. They were popular throughout the UK as a ""live"" act and gigged heavily in all directions, North, South, East and West. During 1968 John left to form ANDROMEDA. So enjoy the sound of Swinging London from 33 years ago. 8 of the tracks featured on this remastered CD have never before been released and have been drawn from John Du Cann's personal collection of acetates.

This review is from: Final Daze (Audio CD)

A fantastic seventeen track CD of The Attack's repertoire recorded sometime between 1967-68.Wasn't aware of it until now,but I don't believe they ever released an 'actual' album.'Final Daze' looks to be a compilation of the several/unreleased singles they had apparently put out.For those of you who may not know,The Attack was John Du Cann's band before Five Day Week Straw people and Andromeda.Superb British mod-psychedelic rock&roll to be fully taken in.Tunes that more than make this CD a true keeper are the two versions of "Magic In The Air","Mr.Pinnodmy's Dilemma"(about a cripple,in which others poke fun at),"Feel Like Flying","Sleep Like A Child","You Know He Did","Earth Tremor" and "Spaced Out".Comes with an informative 16-page booklet.Line-up:John Du Cann-guitar&vocals,Richard Shirman-vocals,Roger Deane-bass and Keith Hidge-drums.An absolute must-have.
