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.

999...999...999!


I quite enjoyed trawling through the archives of 999 material. Some people loved them, some people hated them. But they are still playing and from what I can see they are still hugely appreciated. From a personal perspective, they have never let me down since I first saw them, aged 18, at The Richmond Hotel in Brighton. Happy days.

Cheers are due to:

Nick Cash
Guy Days
Pablo Labritain
Jon Watson
Ed Case
Danny Palmer

and

Arturo Bassick!
