Highly recommended.

We love Laurice here at Strangeworld and have done so since first hearing Grudge "When Christine Comes Around". Never has such a sickly sweet tune contained such sinister lyrical content. Laurice is a gay rock 'n roller and continues to fray the edges of what could be considered "tasteful" rock 'n roll. In case anybody is upset, here's the original label blurb upon release in 2011:

" 70s rock meets mainstream British pop in an explosive style fusion of pre-punk, glam, psychedelic and gay themed musical gems by controversial British rocker LAURICE. Recorded in the early to mid-70s at various studios in London, UK, these tracks, many previously unreleased, demonstrate the versatility and originality of a singer-songwriter who challenged society's rules. British rock was always Laurice's roots. From the pre-punk underground classic hits "When Christine Comes Around/I'm Gonna Smash Your Face" In to the heavily impassioned openly gay anthem "He's My Guy" and the highly sexualized gay lyrics of "Wild Sugar", to the S+M master-slave darkside of "Born To Serve," Laurice constantly challenged himself and his musical peers to explore out of the mainstream music box. His influences ranged from Lou Reed and Cream, to the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and various '70s British pop bands. Take a listen to this treasure trove of incredible tracks. Laurice was a star, far ahead of his time, and suffered mightily for fighting the conventions of the day."

Never seen the "Christine" video until now. Priceless.

"Although I have made quite a few performance videos of my classic proto-punk underground hit WHEN CHRISTINE COMES AROUND I have never done a story book video of the song. Horribly non PC for 2018 I hope you can all enjoy what started as a little in-joke between writer Simon Godd and myself in 1972 while driving over London Bridge, England.  Who knew that it would snowball into the classic hit that it is today? Cheers and thanks, Laurice."
