Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

It's a very unusual item, but the inner gatefold is a bit odd. The design is usually like a book, you open it and all the details are facing you square on. Gatefold sleeves usually only contain a picture (eg. The Meninblack, Japanese X-Certs) not actual written details (like a lyric sheet) . With th...

Thanks for posting the pictures. This is very unusual and I would guess very rare. Even the label is strange. It's maybe an 'outer mongolian' import :lol: . It's certainly unique. It does have the british catologue number. It does look like the kind of release you would get from South America. Someb...

I have never seen or heard of a gatefold sleeve for 'La Folie', so that must be extremely rare. The catologue number 062-83 219 is very similar to the dutch release which is 064-83 219 but that wasn't a gatefold sleeve. Could you post a photo of the sleeve and record label?

Stranglers should do a tribute gig Jim Totally agree, a fantastic idea and would be a great honour to Keith who like the stranglers was a bit of a "maverick". If such an idea did blossom it would be great if Hugh and The Stranglers could put aside their differences for one night and play ...

Pretty obscure track for a radio station to play!! (but maybe not for a Radio Station in Paris!)

Many Thanks for this little gem.

I remember seeing Taxi Girl support The Stranglers on the La Folie tour in 1981 at the Edinburgh Playhouse. Thanks for sharing this interesting item.

Happy Birthday FDM!!!

looks like he's wearing the classic 1980's SIS "Feline" t-shirt!

:( take it you're a Chelsea man? Yeah sad indeed to see club like the Magpies in down. Pity,they got the fan base and potential but never quite make it,do they? Helicopter Sunday went the wrong way for me. Still,it put the most piss poor season to an end and highlighted just how bad our clubs are. ...
