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.

O2 Academy Brixton London 4th February 2022

 


Back on home turf for this gig, the first of two at the glorious Brixton Academy. Once again this was a team effort of recording, remastering and packaging. Thanks to all involved. The set saw a few changes from that played in France, most notably the poignant in the extreme, 'And If You Should See Dave'...

    Couldn’t make it to Brixton (Covid!) and now I regret it even more. Great setlist/performance/recording. Thanks
