IAN DURY – „New Boots And Panties!!“ (40th Anniversary Edition – 4CD+LP Hardcover Book) [VÖ: 27.10.2017]
Ian Dury, like Ray Davies and Paul Weller was a very English talent. The colourful, metropolis inhabiting characters like Billericay Dickie or Plaistow Patricia he sung about and the ever so cockney music hall accent he chose to sing in were a big part of that. But most of all it was the detailed, poetic way he catalogued English life and the melting pot of musical styles used to do so, from punk to funk to jazz and rock ‘n’ roll, which left the listener in no doubt that Dury’s work could only come from one place: The very heart of England.
New Boots And Panties!! Was the debut album for Ian Dury, originally released on Stiff Records in 1977.
It’s often cited as one of the first classic UK punk albums, the record covers a diverse range of musical styles reflecting Dury’s influences and background in pub rock, taking in funk, disco, British music hall and early rock and roll.
It’s considered Dury’s best album and it was also his most successful after it was certified Platinum in the UK 2 years after its release.
