Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

even Toby seems to be accepted as a Dave replacement now as well. Singing as well as playing No no, not a replacement, not in my eyes. Toby is a "stand-in". In the unlikely event that a new album features some prominent and obvious Toby contributions which stand on their own merit and sta...

You don't have to go to the dates to comment. Similarly you don't have to have seen MKI to comment on MKI live threads etc. Jim Nice to see that this thread reviewing the recent tour has been commandeered by people who didn't actually go to any of the dates. Again. You're right of course, but it wo...

Nice to see that this thread reviewing the recent tour has been commandeered by people who didn't actually go to any of the dates.

Again.

I wouldn't go so far as to say best since the Hugh days (and I never saw MKI or II live so wouldn't say that anyway) but this has certainly been the best tour in years, with possibly the best setlist in decades. JJ was amazing as ever, great vocals and fantastic bass as usual. Baz, as I said in the ...

I went to Cambridge, it was good. I've not been on the forum for a few weeks because I was avoiding all the spoilers. I came back yesterday looking forward to catching up on all the chat about the tour, but it seems to have been killed off and the setlist discussion was locked so that's really grea...

Mine All Mine 100% Paul Roberts written so I don't expect that one - they did it once acoustic with Baz singing on the 2011 convention, was OK I suppose even if Baz struggled with the vocals a bit. Ah yeah, I heard that on the bonus disc with Giants. I was glad that they gave it a go at least, alth...

I love I Don't Agree, it's one of my all-time favourites, but I don't know how it would work without Paul singing it.

Lost Control was the poorest choice from the Norfolk Coast album Someone in the band really must love it, they keep coming back to that one but I also think it is one of the weakest tracks on the Norfolk Coast cd Yes definitely, I suspect it is a "Baz favourite" as it's one of his songs i...

It's miles off topic, but I believe it was Dave that made the initial comment re the Golden Brown solo. Hugh acknowledged it in Song by song iirc Again,who cares ? At least he isn't some kind of robot in black. Very true. Anyway, can't say I'm that interested in this vinyl. I used to collect, but I...

Listen to any MKI live recording and you will hear it.

Great choices, all of those would be great
