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.

The Concert Hall (Masonic Temple) Toronto 12th April 1983

 


I have a real treat for you here, courtesy of DomP. This is a radio broadcast from the city's CFNY 102.1 FM station of the band playing at Toronto's Concert Hall, a venue also known as The Masonic Temple. I had this listed as a gig on 3rd May 1983, but this date of 12th April appears to be correct and the quality of the recording is wonderful, really one of those in the collection that can be played and played again!

Many thanks to Dom for digging out and sharing this one!
