[@JohnJopson-y4i]

Love a long intro. Just booked tickets for Katoomba in the Blue Mountains August 24

[@eddiesimpson209]

There's only ONE Hugh Cornwell!!!

[@paulcochrane1028]

Having Clem Burke on the drums lifts this song so much. Great stuff.

[@terrymacarsey2617]

So much I didn't even realised he was playing and can't be bthered to check if he was or wSN'T. hUGH without JJ is shit and they both know it. JJ is a brillianet bassist but I'm not gonna pay a load of money to see The Strangler. They were a fucking band, ffs. no Hugh, no band

[@ska63]

Excellent!

[@neilembo55]

Good to see old Hugh has been rocking it out,amazing fellow!!!!!!!!!!

[@jackoherts]

Clem Burke on drums....Class

[@anthonymaylett5823]

Well better than the stranglers with jjb clowns in that snid stranglers

[@daviddavidson2111]

I thought that was him

[@sidney001]

Brilliant version Clem Burke actually plays the drums like an instrument, great stuff

[@terrymacarsey2617]

Nearly dead, both of them

[@jimshannononsounds]

Burke was great in Blondie and for awhile as one of the Ramones. He's relying to much on his cymbols imo

[@ontheroadid]

I love this version. The way Hugh and his mates have rearranged this song for a 3-piece is fantastic. I'm apparently in the minority, but I don't miss the keyboards. Hugh's voice and guitar really carry the tune with a sense of urgency that the original did not have.

[@stephenwivverP]

"Three piece? " now that rings a bell. Did you know when they first formed the Guilford Stranglers as they were originally began as a three piece band and they were manipulated by management to introduce a keyboard player, the one and only Dave Greenfield joined the band to make them a little bit different from the rest. I would say it was a good decision. 👍

[@grahamelliott7276]

@@stephenwivverP Before DG came along they had a guitarist/piano player who eventually went back to Sweden and briefly a saxophonist.

[@stephanvenner2939]

Hugh and the Bass Player are excellent but Clement Burke is playing a bit too much Cymbals and too much in general so that it's difficult to hear the rest of the song.

[@dannycostello1978]

INCREDIBLE!!!

[@tshozee]

oh such grrrreat guitarist Hugh is... supa song i must say, my fav Stranglers tune ;p

[@csizemore]

thanks so much for posting this!

[@STEVE-ow5ki]

This performance illustrates what an integral part of the Stranglers Dave Greenfield is/was.

[@soepil]

Agreed. It sounds okay, but the keyboards are sorely missed here.

[@VivaZeBone]

@@soepil But hey.....fair play...it ain't half bad....

[@soepil]

@@VivaZeBone : Fair play. It's still the big Hugh :) But sadly lacking something.

[@clairedavenport3633]

Banging tune

[@oldschoolfoil2365]

Love that guitar intro

[@gareth5000]

The man is a genius!

[@sonerali3047]

Fabulous version

[@MrJampot64]

I think this is a good version considering no keys. Hugh holds it together well.

Uh ?

@@grahamelliott7276 I was the toilet on the sea!

[@JacobBite]

The best part of this song was the bass + keyboards. The keyboards were an essential part of this.

[@jetblack5115]

Just needs jj jet black and dave

[@kirbieoxley2409]

ace.fuckin love it.

[@garythompson4041]

Get a trip and do Stranglers one last time!

[@MrMarco33333]

When you get Clem Burke on drums you get Clem Burke.

[@paulwood7798]

God with an average Bass player and a hollow echo where Daves Keys should be filling the air a great song has become an average song.

[@martinblack781]

Clive Burke is annoyingly overbearing.....he needs to dial it back a notch.

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

the bass player sounds more than a bit like JJ..lol

[@NickSBailey]

Not bad, he should get himself a keyboard player and release some music like this instead of the embarrassing dad rock he's been coming out with.

[@andrewallan4616]

Brilliant vocals the rest sucks

[@TheErikglazenburg]

Much better without Dave
