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.

Dead Men Walking The Belfast Empire 28th January 2024

https://we.tl/t-4gdDHISbTB

 

The lastest line up in the long standing 'punk supergroup' project that goes by the name of Dead Men Walking. Here they are playing on Jake's home turf of Belfast. In case you are not familiar with the format, the musicians play acoustic versions of songs from their respective back catalogues (hits or otherwise) amidst lurid tales of life on the road with rock 'n' roll bands! Great to hear an Big Wheel song get an airing. The track 'Man Down' comes from the 2021 Dead Men Walking album 'Freedom - It Ain't On The Rise'.

Thanks to the Historical Field Recording Unit for the share.
