A JJ solo accoustic album with lush string arrangements would be a wonderful thing...and would really suit his (now) gnarly aged voice. Ain't gonna happen though! Good .....to your last comment , suppose I don't have to buy it if it did happen , which I wouldn't .Got one acoustic album , don't want...

(Nobody vote for Golden Brown / Always The Sun ffs)
I wouldn't vote for GB even if I was allowed that choice, I can probably think of easily over 100 Stranglers songs I would rather hear , even one or two on Giants 😁😁.

Re: Baz's side project - WINGMEN

Yep - even though the songs are "a bit ranty" I can only agree with their sentiments Jim I totally agree with Baz the Brexit vote, not gonna lie, alright song actually The NHS one is a blinder, too radical for the stranglers perhaps? I think it’s something even most Tory voters would find...

Re: Bands where a 'best of' is all you need

Beautiful South, hate to say it but probably The Fall if it can be stretched to a double, Cave's catalogue is far too rich and varied for the Greatest Hits treatment. Oh yeah and The Monkees, I think with The Fall you are right , done some good stuff but also some abysmal stuff imo.The Clash .....w...

Re: Acoustic album

So i know this isn't MKV stuff but what is everyone's thoughts on Laid Black if they we're to look back now and take a listen? Feel like this album is forgotten about, whether that's a good or bad thing I don't know. Do you think the MKV line up would release an all acoustic album again, throwing i...

Re: Things you fecken hate..........

Tina bleeding Turner .Almost every night on radio station at work they play something by this screeching noise .Bloody awful ......then they also have to play Sweet Caroline again , and again , and again. I hate both , one is just a noise and the other is so overplayed .
