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.

Devo Whistler Medals Plaza Whistler Canada 22nd February 2010

 


As the 2026 Winter Olympics draws to a close in Italy, it seems to be an opportune to  post this appearance at an earlier Olympiad by those flower-potted oddballs Devo. Now I love Devo and really enjoyed their 'last' UK appearance a couple of years ago. It was therefore with a raised eyebrow that I saw the announcement that they are back on these shores in the summer with the B52s, The Rezillos and Lene Lovich.... playing dates with a ticket price that raised the other eyebrow.

Whatever, it's nothing new for rock bands to announce the final tour only to reappear on a stage near you just a couple of years down the line.
