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 Ramonas Empress Ballroom Blackpool 4th August 2023

 


Now here's a fine band which unfortunately I missed this year (well, they did come on at 12.50 in the morning!). I did see them a few years ago supporting The Skids I think it was and they were great and really great girls as well when we chatted at the merch stand. It is good that they have made a great effort not to be shackled by the Ramones association as they are so much more than a plain old tribute band. Take a listen to some of their solo material, it's really good stuff!

Thanks to Chatts for the share.
