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.

Dave Greenfield And JJ Burnel Fire And Water Outtakes

 

One last solo related post today, prompted by an excellent piece of artwork posted on the 'Stranglers IV' Facebook page. Here then is the Rat Zone compilation of the 1983 Greenfield/Burnel soundtrack outtakes for the 'Ecutez Vos Murs' art film.

A great album with some material that would have been a good fit in a Stranglers' set. I have said it on many occasions that the band should have played 'Nuclear Power' live.... Burnel's last punk roar!

Many thanks go still to the folks behind Rat Zone.... would love to see some more. And thanks to the creator of the alternative art... a considerable improvement upon the above I'm sure you'll agree.
