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.

Street Music - No Heroes No Legends - Various Artists (United Artists GP577)

 


Well, this Japanese import is a new one on me. A solid tracklisting from United Artists clutch of punk and new wave bands that warranted a full five star review in the 5th August 1978 issue of Record Mirror. 

Anyone have this?

Take a look at this for a track list!

  3. I remember John Peel playing this at the time and him remarking that Grip was a longer version. That certainly seemed to be the case, if only for a few extra bars.
