[@garybridge-ku7bf]

What a pity this gig was cut short, it was the Stranglers at their best. Great footage!

[@patrickwest3076]

Absolutely superb. Best band ever.my favourite. Got all there vinyl.

I was a this show aged 15. I only got a ticket (which I still have) 'cus my mate's mum was a cleaner at the Uni!

[@braindeadtoo]

This reminds me of when I went to see Dr Feelgood at Goldsmith's College. I waited in the queue with my mate for an hour, only to be told, when the doors were about to open that the gig was for students only. Luckily, my mate had an NUS card and his uni card. He lent me one of the cards and I got in, even though he had bright ginger hair and I didn't. I saw the Stranglers at The Roundhouse. Bottom of the bill was The Jam.

[@johnanthonyp]

Well done, sir! Your efforts are very much appreciated.

[@jayrox40]

The wait is over! Thank you so much for sharing this legendary footage. A great set of songs for winding up the BBC and the students.

[@davemahenus]

steve thanks brilliant stuff what a blast 25 mins of rare beauty.

[@theobjectivethinker64]

Hey Steve, this whole tape needs to be released officially. Remastered and then sold.

[@Fexobs]

If The Stranglers licensed it, it could happen I guess. It is great I must say !

[@ΝαουμαΚωτσικα]

Fantastic

[@LULUBELLEIII]

Well played, sir! Now that's a jubilee!

[@Essexgeezer]

If I recall they deliberately played songs containing expletives to make it mostly unbroadcastable.

[@adrianclarke1339]

My copy of Black and White doesn't have Hanging Around on it. Perhaps Pete Drummond should have been the one to use his Crackerjack Pencil to eject himself from his own backside!

[@Fexobs]

Yeah I noticed that too, and I'm not even a Stranglers expert !

[@whiteether8626]

fucking ace!

[@kevinhanson4703]

At their beautiful Antaganistic best

[@seanoconnor2531]

12:36 JJB pulls his pants down....they hated this gig and did a lot more stuff like that during and after....

[@philcowley7425]

Awesome ... had it on audio but never seen this apart from clips on tv of hanging Around :-) Where did it come from? :-)

[@Fexobs]

Let's just say I used to work for a certain broadcasting organisation ;-) It's what they call a `viewing copy' hence the timecode clock. I just don't see why this shouldn't be out there....it was public service after all !

[@philcowley7425]

Thanks for sharing :-) Makes my licence fee worth it :-)

[@theobjectivethinker64]

Hi Steve their is a part clip of Ugly (only) somewhere that was found on a disc from a car boot sale.

[@WaltzInBlack]

Not futile, do you remember............

Hideous.. Ha Ha.
