Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

Nice one Will listen are, Hooky said once everytime he meets him, JJ never recognises him

Edit: The time he mentions was the Kubix festival 2019.

Glad other people on here like him, managed to catch him on his last 3 or 4 tours and never fails to disappoint ... not sure the 'scotch' people would agree

Asked my wife to get me it using her prime account. She said they wanted to charge postage.

I got it from Amazon, £24.80 inc postage, cheaper than the official site (think it was £6 postage??)

Ive bought it, flicked through it when it arrived but now its sat on my bedside table.

Probs take on holiday next year to read. No great rush tbh.
