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.

Siouxsie And The Banshees Clouds Edinburgh 18th August 1978

 


So, you may have read what the critics said now decide for yourself. Siouxsie, an Eva Braun for the 1970's or the future of rock 'n' roll (are you with Julie or Chris)?

Here's an early recording of the band from Clouds in Edinburgh when they played as part of the 3rd Edinburgh Rock Festival. Shortly after this they embarked on the tour promoting 'The Scream' album which is unsurprisingly well represented in this set. Support came from Spizz Oil.



Thanks to Sewer Rat for this one!

    i'm sure someone shouts, "show us your tits!".... to which Siouxsie retorts, "i haven't got any tits!"..... quality.
