 The Damned - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sensible had switched to guitar and keyboards, and after a brief interlude with Lemmy Kilmister of Hawkwind and Motörhead recording studio demos on bass, the position was filled by Algy Ward, formerly of the early Australian punk band, The Saints.
Scabies had justifiably been called a great drummer since the band's founding, but with the arrival of Ward, a 'real' bass player, the band was now operating with a full, tight rhythm section, remarkable in its speed and power.
Ward had left at this point, to be replaced by the equally stoner-thuggish Paul Grey, formerly of the UK pre-punk band, Eddie and the Hot Rods.
