I saw them twice at the old Glasgow Apollo in 1977/78. They really blew the roof off the place. These were the sounds of a very special era when punk rock was emerging that will live with us older dudes for ever. Very sad Jet and Dave have both now left us. I can still listen to The Stranglers today as if it was 1978. They were a unique band, RIP Jet and Dave. The music will live on.
First band I really became a fan of, 1978, I was 15, bought 5 Minutes, then Rattus and Heroes lps for Birthday/Christmas. Then later Black and White. Great memories.
One of the biggest bands ever! The Stranglers wrote their biggest hits, created a new genre and still sell out. Simple Minds weren’t bad but quickly lost their way after a couple of years 83-86. All good. This track belongs to Jet and Dave who disappeared without the public send off they had earned.
I actually got to talk to Hugh back in the 80's when they toured San Francisco, I called in to a Radio station and got straight thru (The Stranglers were not that known in US at the time). They put on a great show at the Kabuki Theater. Miss you Dave and Jet.
The 4 songs Jet played were on the Ruby Anniversary DVD as extra features. They decided to use a performance shot in Paris rather than another live DVD shot in the UK as they were offered a deal.
I know nothing of this group, and have only seen the 1986 TV rendition of this song. But this singer lacks the depth and sincerity of the original singer.
True. Of course true. But Suite XVI is still a pretty good record, and im glad i could see this band except for Jet many years ago. You know nothing, really? Try Rattus, NMH, Aural Sculpture, Feline, Raven, Suite, B&W, About time, La Folie, Rarities, Gospel according...
He's now been out the band longer than he was in it & the founding members seen here also preferred to go on without him along with the fans at this yet another sold out gig...Hugh is unable to fill a pub let alone an O2 venue, I don't see you as a founding member of The Stranglers so as such your opinion is of little consequence.
RIP Dave &Jett ..Really one of the big bands ever.
The original 4 were great. More of a new wave band than punk. Their musicianship and intent always came through.
👌🏼
@grobbler1 hugh cornwell once said that we're too old to be a punk band.
The most perfect song ever written
I'm 60 now and I love the strangles, always did. Grtns.

Golden Brown is a little bit better :p

Man , seen them at the Barrowlands a good few times over the 80s and 90s ..one of the tightest live acts I've ever seen .
Always brilliant, rest easy Jet Black ❤️
You're still putting out the beat Jet Black
No Hugh no good.
Excellent as ever.
RIP Dave and Jet I was a Mod But I have always loved the Stranglers
Huge fan for years. Saw them twice on the current tour. Still delivering but for me this was the best live line up, RIP Dave...
best line up was when hugh cornwell was still in the band.

Impresionante banda, no se puede ser más elegante
Jets last live performance (done 4 songs from memory), was at this gig and was filmed for DVD release which never materialised.
The 4 songs Jet played were on the Ruby Anniversary DVD as extra features. They decided to use a performance shot in Paris rather than another live DVD shot in the UK as they were offered a deal.
@@Nyquest do you think the whole Manchester gig will ever be released?
Great
CHEERS :)
The drummer is on it cool as
RIP Big man always the Sun always our main man Jet Black

молодцы!!!
Son mejores los clásicos que los grupos nuevos de ahora
BRAVO AU BATTEUR👍
RIP le batteur, il était super
I remember seeing these in the Mayfair newcastle late 70s and were pelted with bottles because they thought they were seeing a punk band.
❤🎉😊
I actually liked Pauls version the best. I think he did it great
👏👏👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯
Men are beautiful.
C'est comme le vélo ça ne s'oublie pad
Try and catch Hugh on his current tour, he's playing loads of these hits. No one can replace him
Well, without Hugh Cornwell's voice this just isn't it.
Totally agree ..... flat as a pancake. ..... 5 seconds in and disliked
Jesus he’s no Cornwell.
Stefania 81❤u
ロンドンレディが好きでした。
Where can i get this dvd?
Try direct from the band
I was excited to watch till I realized Hugh Cornwell couldn't be in this band
220
is this the 80s STRANGLERS......????
Who is the singer???
Baz Warne
I like baz but Hugh had it going on
@@Mdemar70 Was he originally in the Toy Dolls
@@davidsnowdon7328 yes, he played bass
In Serbia is awful.Communism.I am pacifist.Learning C programming, advanced level.Thank You. 😊
Be sure to get your pointers working correctly.
Hugh Alan Cornwell has no replacement
I am afraid he has as he quit the band 33 years ago, he's been replaced twice over so you should get out a bit more it's not 1990.
Most songs sound very well, but you can't replace Hugh on this one, looses it's charm/feel
Lovely last hurrah. Hugh is missing though with his touch of class.
I love it but Hugh was the better singer I love being strangled always have
L Original avec le chanteur du clip je préfère cette version...
bof

🙂
One of my all time favourite bands RIP Jett and Dave
F@/King great Jet!..Master of the Shuffle, Master of the Drum kit rest in peace..🙏 sorely missed ..no more Stranglers anymore...
Ethernal ☀️ Sun❤
Seen them on Birmingham 1998 incredible.
Through all the changes still the same band. Outstanding in Sydney in 2023
Always The Sun ❤
Γεια σου Jet γίγαντα!
Athens 1986!
Hugh Cornwell please .... just not the Stranglers without him ....sorry but dreadful
He's now been out the band longer than he was in it & the founding members seen here also preferred to go on without him along with the fans at this yet another sold out gig...Hugh is unable to fill a pub let alone an O2 venue, I don't see you as a founding member of The Stranglers so as such your opinion is of little consequence.
