Wow, Dave on vocals and a svelte Jet on drums. :)

[whouster]

This is a real find! I taped it on my BETAMAX video - think the show was called 'Rockstage??' Anyway, mind blowing performance of Genetix! Many thanks for uploading this - and who cares about the sound quality.

Genetix!! Out of this world.Goose bumps down the spine.One of my favourite live numbers of all time.Long live the Stranglers.Seeing them again in March.

Brilliant.The BEST live band of all time.

I'm going to challenge Dumb theatersr Jorcan Rudumb on to this site . Greenfield modelled himself on Brian Wilson but surpassed.The only man who could challlenge Rudess isn.t bothered. It would be interesting......Genetix.. Down in the ....

[gasattack99]

Quite simply the best band EVER

[johnanthonyp]

Just can't be pigeon holed to the chagrin of the dismissive, intimidated and dismissive music journos they upset through their careers. I know one thing! They're an inescapable cult. Once they make a fan of you they have your soul and body for life! I should know. And it's great!

[TheF0nz1]

Fuck me I was there! They really are on top form here effing brilliant.

Without Doubt the greatest band ever in my opinion.

[MrMarkdorris]

Thanks what a vid. JJB is still the best

[hideawaycottage]

greenfield is god !!!!!!!!!

[yanianyan]

Nuclear Device, where are the chants of...Bruce!!!! Shiela!!!!

Well, thats what we used to sing whenever they did the song in Glasgow. Great video.

[MoveOverCasanova]

the drums in GENETIX are so great!!

[SuperChelsea81]

and really cool bass line, a good song

[LORDGODSIRALEXFERGIE]

This is something that only a true stranglers fan can appreciate. there is never any 'backing' instrument, or 'tempo' addition - every instrument was giving 164% - STRANGLERS!

[kohlemainen]

if only that weird rpm show with andy batten-foster would make an appearance. it had two songs live from a bristol granary gig every week for eight weeks. brilliant.
