Aural Sculptors - The Stranglers Live 1976 to the Present


Welcome to Aural Sculptors, a blog aimed at bringing the music of The Stranglers to as wide an audience as possible. Whilst all of the various members of the band that have passed through the ranks since 1974 are accomplished studio musicians, it is on stage where the band have for me had their biggest impact.

As a collector of their live recordings for many years I want to share some of the better quality material with other fans. By selecting the higher quality recordings I hope to present The Stranglers in the best possible light for the benefit of those less familiar with their material than the hardcore fan.

Needless to say, this site will steer well clear of any officially released material. As well as live gigs, I will post demos, radio interviews and anything else that I feel may be of interest.

In addition, occasionally I will post material by other bands, related or otherwise, that mean a lot to me.

Your comments and/or contributions are most welcome. Please email me at adrianandrews@myyahoo.com.

Stadt Jubilaum Linz 18th May 1990

 

Correction: It has been brought to my attention that this gig is in fact from Linz, Austria from the night before (thanks Malcolm). Hugh mentions Linz in 'Peaches'.

Apologies for the brief intermission... now returned from holiday.

Here are The Stranglers on the '10 Tour' in the Austrian capital on this day back in 1990. Reasonably sounding audience recording in what sounds to be something of an aircraft hanger.
