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.

Killing Joke Squat De Argand Geneva September 1983

 

1983 saw the release of Killing Joke's 'Fire Dances' album, which whilst not necessarily one of their best albums, in its defence in the discography it does sit in between two of the band's titan albums, 'Revelations' (1982) and 'Night Time' (1985). Anyway here are KJ promoting the album in Geneva. There was some uncertainty as to the correct date of this gig. The cassette that I had many years ago stated September (with the exact date unknown). A peruse of Discogs earlier threw up a bootleg cassette with the date of 26th November 1983. The issue was settled by the https://killingjokeconcerts.blogspot.com/ website that includes specific mention of the squat gig taking place on 26th November 1983.
