Album Description Long overdue collection from this British Blues/R&B/Rock outfit, who formed in the late '70s. While their contemporaries were busy following the New Wave and Punk trends, The Inmates created sweaty R&B and Rock similar to early Stones and, of course, Dr. Feelgood. Dirty Water (the collection) leads off with their interpretation of the Standells classic 'Dirty Water' which they virtually made their own. From that point onwards, the band's energy and grittiness makes this set of singles and album tracks and extremely worthwhile compilation. .25 tracks. 2001. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsAt last! minister-of-funk | 10/11/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "The Inmates are the forgotten band of British R&B. If you like Rockpile, the Feelgoods and especially the Stones check this out. The best from their 3 albums, this is maximum R&B all the way. There's a good mix of originals and wonderful covers such as 'dirty water', 'three time loser' and 'some kind of wonderful'. Check out Peter Gunn's guitar and Bill Hurley's voice, one of the greatest British blues singers you will ever hear. I can recommend this compilation without reservation to all lovers of R&B." Great post punk garage rock Samuel B. King | Concord, NH | 10/17/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "The Inmates, like Ducks Deluxe and Dr. Feelgood, were part of the bare bones rock revival in Britain in the wake of the punk explosion. If you are looking for great straight ahead rock with a solid bass, drums and telecaster rhythm, this is the place! Stand out tracks include covers of Dirty Water, Talk Talk and Some Kind of Wonderful (all three better than the originals). Their songwriting is not bad, either, with influences as diverse as Sun Records, the Everly Brothers (minus the harmonies) and the Stones. Great party music, evoking images of hot Saturday nights in a Brit pub. I've been waiting for years for this stuff to be released and it genuinely deserves 5 stars. Guaranteed to rock your socks off!!"
