Derby Tup 13 Apr 5:54pm, 13 Apr 2024 65,395 posts	0 Derby Tup I went to see the Stranglers around the time of the Raven album / Duchess single. Brilliant band. A bit like the Ramones or Motörhead. Obviously a different sound but they could really play and were very distinctive
Red Squirrel 13 Apr 6:30pm, 13 Apr 2024 23,674 posts	0 Red Squirrel I was a big fan in their early days - first 3 albums. I did buy the Raven but wasn’t fully happy with how much they changed. They are/were fantastic musicians though and there are still some great tracks from the later times. This is a fave from the punk years: Hanging Around https://youtu.be/d4piHt4jvG4?si=NNK2-PWt5at2x8tJ

Red Squirrel 14 Apr 2:45pm, 14 Apr 2024 23,678 posts	0 Red Squirrel Great clips, thanks 57.5. I love the Strangs’ longer prog rock style tracks that showcase their timing, skill and how they gelled. Also love the BC track - amazing guitar.
Valyrian Plastic 14 Apr 5:51pm, 14 Apr 2024 8,657 posts	0 Valyrian Plastic I'm following through on my idea to marathon all of Penguin Café's albums. They rer-recorded their debut a few years ago, and also seem to have scrubbed all trace of the original off YouTube, so I started with their second effort. https://youtu.be/MB9zpRCpgXM?si=lzzMCg76bWICZ89X
