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.

Ruts DC John Peel Centre Stowmarket 9th August 2024

 


So bringing things right upto date for this band. No less than 45 years after Mark Ellen endured 'the abysmal Ruts'... silly arse!, here they are on their last tour playing at the John Peel Centre in Stowmarket. It was John Peel in 1979 that gave The Ruts (along with countless other bands) the break that they needed through his timeless sessions.

Many thanks as ever to Chatts for this one!
