House party you say? Well you know what will be going on in the kitchen …
The Stranglers were great – hardly put a foot wrong for best part of a decade. Although I go against conventional wisdom in thinking their second LP was better than the first?
I so wanted to be JJ but could only afford a Westone Thunder 1 (not even the 1a!) and a farty 15 watt Laney amp so couldn’t quite recreate the Barracuda Bass sound.
In retrospect it took some guts to bring out an ostensibly punk album as your debut, with no real punk songs on it, but instead excellent fodder such as this:
And then to go all paranoid pop on a bizzare conspiracy theory album (Meninblack) with the beautifully alliterative Just Like Nothng On Earth: (here with the Dame as backing)

I tend to listen to the stranglers as an entity rather than as an album by album Group. I dip in when and where needed.
‘The Raven’ is The Masterpiece though.
I’m in Bri, though it’s Black and White for me.

We’re gonna need a D.J.
Sorry Gary but there’s no room for fey meaning here. Good grief man. Really? Have you lost your cock that much?
Alas, I know not where.
Rescue mission a-la broadsword calling Danny boy.
Gary is in real trouble chaps! He cannot find his nanny’s pencil stick.
(Hint.)
It’s in her mouth!!!
That’s sexual abuse,Gary! You could be done for that!
Bri,
Your posts are often tangential, unrelated stream of consious stuff.
You really need to get a grip on yourself (oo-er)
I do? Would I be me if I didn’t? Am I in danger?😂😂😂
It is officially snowing here now. Merry Christmas everyone. ❤️
Come on everyone…more Stranglers! What about 5 Minutes (the most violent song ever) or some of their poppiest moments?
I would gave thought that bri would be really offended by the misogyny of some of the Stranglers lyrics.
The last single for Liberty/EMI.
In true “Two Fingers To You” style, it was a re-recorded version of the demo rejected by EMI in 1974.
