My fella saw Hugh Cornwell at a local town hall a couple or so years ago & said he was a right tosser though he thinks Nosferatu is a work of genius. Despite being female I always loved the Stranglers ( in spite of some of their dubious lyrics.) Do You Wanna segueing into Death & Night & Blood is sublime. JJ Burnel' s bass is the best I've ever heard.I think they're way under rated probably because they're not PC, and appear, admittedly, to be awkward bastards. Saying that I went to a concert recently & there was a lot of barely controlled testosterone flying about! Getting a bit too long in the tooth for that sort of stuff! I remember in my youth seeing JJ Burnel stomping along the front of the stage on people's hands. Charming chap. Gorgeous though!
