Re: Would you see The Stranglers without JJ?

Re: Songs played live all-time league table
There was that live album "death and night and live" taken from the AS tour wasn't it? Skin Deep is on there and they're clearly using the radio mics cos Hugh says something just before Skin Deep kicks in

Re: Songs played live all-time league table
There are more entries in the years you mentioned. 1981 (94) 1980 (58) 1979 (71) 1978 (82) 1977 (140) 1976 (85) 1975 (14) 1974 (1) Jim Think these stats are only based on what people have added to Setlist.fm, so lots of older gigs aren’t in there. If they’d just bin that top 10 for a bit I’d be much...

Re: Embellishments and deviations
One of the things I love about Jet is that he does just enough, absolutely solid but gives space for the other instruments. His style is all his. What I mean by that is if you hear that clip of Tank you can tell it's Jet playing , play Toiler from another gig with Jet and you can tell it's him. I do...

Re: Would you see The Stranglers without JJ?
I'm no bass player but I've heard that JJ's stuff is fairly easy to play, it's the finesse, delivery and showmanship that he's good at. Similar to replacing Hugh in a way - easy to copy but not so easy to come up with the inventive creativity.

Re: The Gallery?
Yeah it's been on my list as another "weekend project" for a while folks. Will put a message up when I've sorted it. I think the gallery existed before flickr and Facebook :lol: - It was the only way of sharing "gallery" images at the time. Some little gems in there so it would b...

Re: Would you see The Stranglers without JJ?
It's still a valid option. I'm betting there's probably people voting Yes who haven't see the Stranglers for a while as well. Like I keep saying all opinions count (even if you don't agree with them) Jim I wonder how many people who voted no don't go and see the band anymore anyway. I imagine some p...

Re: Tour Epitaph
Possibly the most off topic post ever! :lol: Jim Sir so true about Hugh and Stranglers in the day,they weren't faking,they sometimes were genuinely angry with the audience being arseholes and sadly the band always did and do attract their fair share of arseholes,Hugh like you said still gets pissed ...
