Bass during the instrumental section of Walk on By was absolutely stunning in fact the whole band were on point. RIP Dave Greenfield this is an example of his genius. Great post thanks for sharing

[@steve261brown]

Dave Greenfield what a legend! RIP.

[@lordlockdown64]

What an amazing gig, great to see Dave and Jet, my favourite Stranglers album.

[@PaulCarew-j9j]

I heard them.on the radio in 1977 as a 12 year old snd l was hooked and obsessed. Don't think a better band has come out of the UK or USA since then.

[@Blonde_Somnambulist]

Good to see my bra has pride of place...fab weekend , lads in great form .

[@theclashcalling_]

'Black & White' may just be the most terrifying and yet inspiring albums ever made: 'Nice & Sleazy', 'Threatened' and 'Enough Time' are intimidating, eerie and yet paradoxically thrilling... Unique suite of songs from a band that was clearly on fire.

[@TheGreatToucan]

Been listening while doing other things....this is a great choice, showing off some of the band's more obscure material which is not seen elsewhere. I just can't help repeating that this is the best band perhaps ever, certainly for a VERY long time. They are still ahead in so many aspects. Much of this music is 25 years old at the time this was recorded, and the audience is still heavily into it. So am I.

[@TheGreatToucan]

Is there any song more punk than "Shut Up!"?

[@kevindean9613]

The best live sound they've ever had .

[@Missdoubletrouble541]

Check out their gig "Rattus at the Roundhouse" - that's an absolutely fantastic concert too (imo). Just love them. RIP Jet and Dave.

[@evilelf5967]

bought this album when it came with the 33 1/3 walk on by single.....fukkin epic time.saw these guys at the roundhouse in london,spit sweat and all.proper punker days.r.i.p dave fly straight.

[@24hourjukebox55]

I had words with my girlfriend about 35 years ago. She picked up some of my albums are started smashing them on the T.V. One of them was the ''marbled'' vinyl of B & W. I haven't heard her in years but I still hear The Stranglers. 15.14. Toiler on The Sea - Classic.

THE BEST ALBUM !

[@Missdoubletrouble541]

It's a fantastic album but so is Rattus and No more heroes. I love all three of those albums, can't pick a favourite!

[@ardentearth3184]

This is brilliant. Thanks for posting.

[@sukottora]

Great! but when they toured the album a few years later it was even better. They didn't even acknowledge the audience (in Inverness at least) until the album was finished. Then came the banter and a load of classic tracks. Have to say Baz is the perfect front man for the band.

[@Silver6003]

[@stiffybristol]

Great to hear them play these tracks. Looking forward to March wonder if they will include Mean to Me, Shut Up again and if they have found a way to play Enough Time. Maybe next year we will get the whole of another album, they nearly did ALL of the Raven last year, perhaps La Folie.

[@rudydynxx]

Black n white album always had a live feel on the recording...its like the band are playing in the room when listening,,,the drums sound great on it..always felt the drums lacked the aura of importance on a lot of stranglers albums..

[@zebedee1100]

Brilliant! Shame about the omission of Enough Time though, pretty tricky without helium I guess & whatever you'd inhale to slow things down also.

[@constantinosxenos5567]

Though not a stranglers purist, not even fan of the genre, i have to state that apart from the fact that Black and white is a mastrepiece, some line ups are destined to be intact!!! Event with 3/4ths being here with their immense talents(and yes, people seem to forget that jet black is a genius drummer), there is a link missing.... Still very enjoyable concert..

[@petermccool9396]

Phûk me. I haven't heard this album since last century. I bought it as soon as it came out. Walk on By is phenomenal. The album has been across the Atlantic, twice. Album now in my atic in my home country. Can't get to it as I'm stuck in Asia since 10/19 due this shit scamdemic. Toiler on the Sea.

[@Batstrings]

same here, stuck in S.E Asia under the control of a feckin hot headed lunatic who knows bugger all. I got the album with me though :) , but my record player is fucked, so can't win these days.

[@undergroundwarrior70]

Good to see Jet Black behind his drum kit. Dave Greenfield got bald like me. He should have at least kept the mustache. Not a bad concert, but still not the same without Hugh Cornwell.

[@Trotskyxx]

Depends which Hugh Cornwell era you're referring to. I agree with you regarding HC up to the mid-80s - a unique force of creativity. But after that, he seemed to be going through the motions (look at footage of the final ever 'original' Stranglers gig). I'd take Baz's musicianship and input over the abomination that was "10", the final 'original' Stranglers release.

[@amedlen24]

Hugh decided to go his own way,so credit to Baz for keeping the Stranglers legacy alive.

[@badbasstrilogy]

'But if you worry 'bout your ports of call,you'd never get nothing done at all....'

[@CraigDavies.]

I remember been a young mod in 1979 at Wembley Finchley boys to my right at the front going mental to AC/DC. The stranglers came on and started doing tracks from the raven. Know one had heard them because the album only came out that day,Finchley boys where throwing things at them Hugh stopped the band. Went over to JJ said something JJ went to Jet and Hugh went to Dave the band started again with Tank.
