Right then, for all you rock’n’rollers out there, it’s The Dogs D’Amour’s debut album; The State We're In. Only released in Finland at the beginning of 1984, and featuring a certain Dave Kusworth on guitar. (No this blog isn’t turning into a DK appreciation site!) Vinyl copies are very collectable, this download is taken from a tape I recorded from a vinyl copy many, many, many moons ago, hence the dodgy homemade cover and reduced sound quality, but it’s still very, very listenable and a great long lost relic, so if you dig the dogs, it’s just a click away.

Great stuff! This was the Dogs sound that I remember from their early days. You can hear Kusworths influence on this.

Thanks for all the Dogs and Dave Kusworth stuff! I'm seeing him tonight as a matter of fact.
Cheers for this Nuzz been looking for a while now, i've upped the demo's over at my blog at least i think they are demo's may just be be a pre mix of the album, you probably know more, all the best.
Yeah too right pipeline, hope you had a good night sedona. If I remember rightly Marky but it could be wrongly I think the record company added the keyboards after album was recorded and without bands permission, something they weren't happy about.
Cheers for this Nuzz, love the Dogs. Marky any chance you could re-up the demos you had as i cant see them.
