Brand X


"Do They Hurt?" is the fifth album by the British jazz fusion group Brand X, released in 1980. The album consists of tracks that were originally recorded during the sessions for their previous album, "Product." One of the tracks, "Noddy Goes to Sweden," was initially released as a B-side from the "Product" album. The decision to compile these outtakes into a new album allowed Brand X to showcase additional material that had been recorded but not included in the previous release. The album "Do They Hurt?" continues in the vein of jazz fusion that Brand X is known for, featuring complex compositions, virtuosic performances, and a blend of various musical influences. Despite being compiled from leftover tracks, the album received attention from fans of the band and further solidified their reputation within the jazz fusion genre.
