Re: Crap Joke No.83840370

A woman is walking through the park when she sees a very attractive man sitting on a bench. He's reading a book and eating some fruit out of a Tupperware container. Slowly, the woman gathers courage to go ask him out. She walks over, takes a seat next to him, turns and says... "Sorry to bother ...

Re: The Best of Baz

It was Louie that suggested it to the band. He recorded the original. It's a great song and the band's version is impressive but when a band can write crackers on their own, it's disappointing in a sense. Baz wrote Spectre and I think that is one of the most "Stranglers" of songs. More lik...

Baz didn't write it.
But this isn't just about what he writes, it's a bout what Baz brings to the band.

Re: The Best of Baz

Perhaps you could enlighten us with your history with the band. Might let the rest of us understand where you are coming from. I would have thought it was quite clear where I'm coming from. Let's just pretend that the Black/Burnel/Cornwell/Greenfield line-up didn't exist and Stranglers history bega...

Re: The Best of Baz

Because I find it a stretch to call the current "ambassadors of the brand" The Stranglers. You have JJ and then three others (the "friends") that have nothing much to do with anything other than to tug on the ever-shrinking titties of the cash cow. But But But.......they are The...

I'm here because I'm a fan of The Stranglers. Obviously.
But you're not really.

you are a fan of the old Stranglers but not the new which you constantly refer to as JJ and friends.

Indeed, I'm sure Baz would have preferred to have more success with Smalltown Heroes or solo etc. Before he replaced John Ellis, his career highlight was playing bass for Toy Dolls.
Whose biggest hit was , ironically, a cover version..............!

Re: The Best of Baz

Here comes our Stan, shitting in the kid's sandpit to spoil the fun. Back on track You have to be a bit deaf or not to have paid much attention if you can't find some of the positives of Baz. It doesn't have to be song writing at all. I like the way he makes an effort with the blogs for example - wa...

He was simply pissed as a fart and made a huge twat of himself.

Re: John Lydon

He's certainly no saint but I don't think you can really call him cowardly for a man who is so outspoken and prepared to say it as he feels. As I said before, he has certainly said some questionable things in his past and acted like a berk, but he also has a deep believe in core values that he is no...

Re: The Best of Baz

Nice to see positivity about Baz. I was chatting with my brother about him and he said he still struggles with him but when I pointed out his tenure in the band he saw the point. For me, no Baz, No Stranglers. Post Hugh he has been the one to make the biggest impact on me and I certainly credit him ...
