Adam and the AntsDirk Wears White SoxRecord Store Day 2014 Release. Limited to 2000 Copies. Adam and the Ants classic debut album originally released in 1979, remastered by Adam Ant and available on white vinyl for the first time on his BlueBlack Hussar label. Also includes original sticker set, poster, postcards and booklet. Adam Ant (born Stuart Leslie Goddard) formed the band with guitarist Lester Square, bassist Andy Warren, and drummer Paul Flanagan in london in 1977. The group's approach was more theatrical than most punk groups, incorporating sadomasochistic imagery into their concerts. The band released this album on the independent label do it in 1979. 'Dirk Wears White Sox' is an ambitious and somewhat dark album, filled with jerky rhythms, angular guitar riffs, and elements of glam rock crept in Adam's vocals. It is a rough diamond in comparison to later commercial hits, but it has aged beautifully, sounding as fresh as ever in displaying the influence the original ants have had on the recent resurgent interest in all things post punk.
