To be fair it was £14.99 when it came out

Looking at the cover

https://thestranglers.co.uk/wp-content/ ... SQ.001.png

I dont see one pic of Paul or JE, hard to find Hugh also ...
Paul is on the Norfolk Coast cover above the L in Stranglers.
Paul and JE's bottom halves are also top left as part of the About Time promo photo.
Hugh's on loads of the photos and record sleeves.

I was pleased to see a copy of In the Night down at the bottom of the largest one of these images (not on the one you've linked to though), suggests it might be more of a balanced view of the band? Bit expensive for what it is though so probably not going to partake.

Good spotting, totally missed the NC image, I would not have picked up the About Time image at all. What I should have said about Hugh is that he is not as prominent, I see JJ and Dave the most, even Baz pops out to me before I find a "large" Hugh image (next to the Rattus Badge).

To me, one photo pops out more than any other. It's JJ & Baz below the G. Intentional I suspect.

Only available second hand now on marketplaces (like Amazon) - seen it for much more actually. You should have got it when it came out :grin:

Since we all love reading French nowadays in stranglers land, the French edition of Peaches is available for only 34 quid: https://www.amazon.fr/Stranglers-Peache ... C91&sr=8-1

Yes, one of a couple in colour near the middle, with the tail of the G pointing at it. Subtler that a big arrow, but only just.

Is there anyone out there that does not own one? :grin:
Me , but then I don't really want one , I would only lose it anyway .I have got a mini Stranglers bass guitar in black , won it a few years back on Talkpunk forum where they did a competition guessing premier League scores throughout the season and I came out on top . I haven't lost that yet , the guitar that is 😁
I don't play Bass so no interest in JJs plectrum,but I have a couple of pairs of Jets gig used drumsticks which are pretty impressive.Lt Kudu.
Great special package there even though the price isn't lol

I doubt it's unintentional that Paul and JE are obscure in the photo.

Yep, I don't expect much of Paul and John in the book.
