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.

Buzzcocks And Magazine 'B'Dum B'Dum' A Granada TV Special 1978

 

I think that I would have got this documentary originally from Punktorrents. This is an excellent Granada TV special spotlighting the progress to date of Manchester's Buzzcocks and Magazine. In interview's with Tony Wilson, both Shelley and Devoto discuss their writing and motivations as well as the early incarnation of Buzzcocks. The documentary also features some excellent footage of a 'reunion' gig of sorts when Devoto once again joined his former Buzzcocks band mates on stage at a gig at the Lesser Free Trade Hall in Manchester on 21st July 1978 to mark the second anniversary of the gig where they supported Sex Pistols.
