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.

Salle De Grande Parc Bordeaux 27th September 1983

Another anniversary gig, a mere 32 years distant. The massive Feline offensive continued and saw The Stranglers back in France. This recording also features 'Ships That Pass In The Night' from the soundcheck and 'Let Me Introduce You To The Family' which made a rear appearance in the set. I'm happy to be corrected, but I think that it was only played a couple of times before being dropped.
