Another good single and another band incarnation from 'Brian James'. When I first bought this, I played it once, and thought that both sides were average, and just left it in a box of records. Then about a year later I was sorting out my record collection (I used to do this a lot, file by band name, then by label or by genre - I know very sad), and I played it again, and ever since then I have continued to play it.Brian James formed 'Tanz der Youth' when he left 'The Damned' and this is the one and only single that was released (there was also a three track
John peel session which I don't have - anyone out there got it?).Some etching trivia on both sides of this one: The a-side has "Der Youthful Kut" and the b-side has "Max Wall Is the man" (I don't know what the second etching means, but for those of you who don't know, Max Wall was a comedian who used to wear black tights and big boots and do funny walks - I saw him in his later years supporting 'Ian Dury' and he was brilliant, so I agree).
Band: Tanz Der Youth
Label: Radarscope
Year: 1978
Tracks:
1. I'm Sorry, I'm Sorry
2. Delay
Ripped from glorious scratched vinyl:

I've been down in the basement looking through my cassette collection. I know I had the Peel-session. I'll continue looking for it later, I'll let you know if I find it.
Great upload.
Yeah, me too, I know I had it... it might be in the back of the attic... see who finds it first!
Great single, it's a great shame he/they didn't record more. Lords Of The New Church was pretty cool, but this was so much more promising and forward-looking I think.
Looks like we have a race here.
hey Robert and Hank you sound just like me, having to root through boxes in the loft trying to find stuff, I know I have somewhere.
Anyone have the writing credits for this single?
Hi anon, yep, but the record is back in the loft, so you will have to give me a couple of days to dig it out again.
cheers gary, much appreciated
Right found it. I'm Sorry, I'm Sorry was written by 'Brian James' and the b-side Delay was written by 'A Colquhoun / A Powell'.
Any special reason for you wanting to know this?
Anyone found the Peel sessions?
Hi Rooclick, yep I have them if I can't find the original source I will repost in the next week or two.
