The Good, The Bad & The Queen – "The Good, The Bad & The Queen" (2007)
2010/03/03
As I said in a comment the other day…
I've been listening to "The Good, The Bad & The Queen" the past few days. It didn't rock my world when it came out, the way Gorillaz's "Demon Days" did, but re-listening to it today something clicked for me. Perhaps "The Good, The Bad & The Queen" is better with age? Maybe I'm just hungry for more Albarn creations now and because the new Gorillaz is not out just yet, I'll take what I can get!?
Is it lame to quote yourself? Probably. Well whatever. Listen to the song already!
By the way, this "band" made up of Damon Albarn, Paul Simonon (of The Clash), Simon Tong (of The Verve) and world renowned drummer Tony Allen, is not actually named anything at all, but they might as well be "The Good, The Bad & The Queen". I wonder if they'll make another one?

Alright, not so much a "supergroup" as an Albarn project. After a few listens to some songs here on youtube, I think "13" first, then I think Ray Davies and late sixties Kinks, "Afternoon Tea?" Picking up Plastic Bleach this weekend. I'll check the rest of this out properly on lala. Thanks for introduction.
True true. This history of The Good, The Bad & The Queen and how it came to be confirms that Albarn basically hand picked everyone for it over time:

Good call with the Ray Davies meets late Kinks. You're right on!
