May their star shine bright long after we're all gone. ❤

Thank you for everything you are the best

There is only four Stranglers Hugh,Jet,JJ,Dave thats it.

Don't pay the fines or hidden fees, make them pay it forward for their betrayal 😢

Brilliant Dave ! R.I.P Dave Greenfield and Jet Black .

The Stranglers are in my top 3 bands of all time. I struggle to respect them these days with just one original member left though. Carrying on without Dave was too much for me.

Thanks for sharing this. I've loved them since hearing the 5 Minutes bw Rok it to the Moon single. Great band made up of a great bunch of people...

Yeah the wrong 10 years.

Now on the verge of 50 Years! 😁🥳🖤

I remember being at the wilmot gig at our local youth club in Finchley I sat on top of the p . a next to Pete sharp and watched my 2 older brothers in there stranglers original finchley boys t shirts with all the other finchley boys hold the line ...I was 13 ...Happy Times ❤❤

Very interesting . I preferred the Stranglers in their early days they were a great band to follow , as they became more comercialised their music changed . Theyre still a great band. But its sad that they lost Dave Greenfield and Jet Black

Was there!!

I was 13 when Dave Lee Travis played Peaches for the 1st time. The next day I was at New Milton Records in Whitefield Rd buying the single . On hearing this blasted out on an old Dansette my mother exclaimed “ this is disgusting filth “ & tried to tear it off the turntable. I won the fight & she never got her hands on it 😁🏴❤️

Keep all of the lanterns burning for a ship to pass in the night.

Are you uploading the rest of this interview please?

I just wanna say, I havent got anything against Paul, he sounds like a good bloke and really aimiable or amiable (?!), but I just didnt like that era... Except for "Big Thing Coming", I really love that track. 😉

When i saw a copy of thé DVD of them live at the Royal fuckin Albert Hall, I said to myself "What the fuuuck?!!" and although I was really not a fan of that particular line-up, I just had to buy it, for my Stranglers collection. I really don't like it, i thought it was terrible, i could'nt understand why thé fuck they did that, with an Orchestra and dressed up like that, but oh well, they did it. I've tried watching it 3 or 4 times but I just can't. I just think that was a really Bad Mistake, but obviously some fans think it's great. Such a terrible thing wouldnt stop me from still loving them as much as I do. Long Live The Stranglers 🖤 (Rest in Peace, Dave Greenfield, you will live on forever in the hearts of us fans😔)

When I saw "Dave Mason" I thought it was the musician from Traffic lol.

I love TFF, thank you for posting! ♡

That would be the same Waitrose as i use then. Lol

The best duo ever! I can’t get enough!!

Thanks for sharing! I was so excited to see them in Cincinnati on the opening night of their Tipping Point tour.

What a riot! Great guys. I first saw them at Long Beach Arena in 1990 when Roland admitted for the first time that he had neglected to see the hairdresser in a while. Then saw them again in Atlanta for the Tipping Point Tour. They are hilarious and their music brings great joy to us all. And the keyboard player is from Macon and I live only about 20 minutes from there. All enjoy!

The first band I saw in 78 amazing band and way ahead of the other bands at the time although the clash were very good live

Saw these guys in Philadelphia 21.06.22. Amazing show. Talented musicians and great human beings

I was standing close to where you were.

Cool, I remember watching these guys rehearse as Graduate in 79 and recording a radio 1 request for their record to be played by Stewpot on radio 1 for my nan hahah.

Hated them when they were a 5 piece. Didnt work for me. Really like the band since Baz joined though.

Anne was great on this

I love how they don't sound how they look!

Thank you for a brilliant expose on my favorite band

How could you listen to Golden Brown for the first time and not realise it was a massive hit. How do these people get jobs in music and not have a clue about what's good and what's not

Could've been viscount Hugh of Cornwell

Amazing to hear them being called sexist. Ironically, if you listen to 'princess of the street', the subject of the song is about how love hurts, and the protagonist has empowerment. Very talented songwriting.

Vilar de Mouros - Minho - Portugal 1982. Sons incríveis! Inesquecível. Obrigado por tudo.

Brilliant 🖤 thank you for this, loved the band from the first time I heard "Peaches" and still love them all versions 🖤

Thank you so much, amazing stuff

time to call it a day I feel !

I always thought they where finished when they came out after AC/DC at The Who concert at Wembley in 79. They started doing songs from the Raven witch had only come out that day so no-one knew them. Even the Finchley boys where throwing peaches at them. 4th song in Hugh went over to JJ said something in his ear JJ went to jet and Hugh went to Dave the song stopped and they went in to Tank.

1st call roofing what a bunch of complete muppets. 😂

I've been a fan for 30+ years and have met some members of the band, attended a Christmas party, photographed a convention and some of their gigs but I learned so much about the band after listening to your interview. Brilliant! Thank you.

This is really something special, well done lad.

0:32 does anybody else hear that sapi 4 voice sometimes called mail number three say oh no! It only seem to happen in this series If you know which voice I am referring to the one with the hilarious inflection.

I live in the UK, any idea when watchdog is back on TV? They have the section on The One Show but I mean the actual series thanks

How have I missed this gem for nigh on a year? Excellent stuff. This is the most I've heard from Dave which is a bitter sweet experience. RIP Dave.

time for parts 3 & 4

49:47 "Music is Math" by Boards of Canada :) Thought I recognised that song!

Wow ,love Dave's insight on contracts money...

I enjoyed this

Never been the same without Hugh. Never been as good.
