JJ t'es le meilleur!! même en français tu déchires!!

[napoleonbonerpart]

that greasy rocker with his can of skol!

the ginger kid wearing a parka

kids wearing ties

the old ramshackle equipment

everything just set-up in the corner of the room

hand-held camera and no jump-cut editing

old posters left on the wall

then look at today's music TV where everything is staged and the band even over-dub what's been recorded afterwards. -crap!

@napoleonbonerpart We've progressed in some ways, and regressed in others.

Voici les étrangleurs. Ils n'aiment pas les Pierres Roulantes.

Si on avait dit à JJ que plus de trente ans il serait toujours un rocker, il aurait certainement rigolé. Excellent reportage. RIP Yves Mourousi, le plus punk des journalistes

@strangled09 Did you see Sex Pistols?

[pappabagge]

JJ's taking the piss - as always !!

[bobbydj01]

I think the venue is the Nashville, from '76.

JJ Burnel does Jane Birkin LOL. That fucking french sociologist pretty much hit the nail on the head. Bastard. Still it was fantastic at the time I thought JJ was the coolest guy on the planet.

Good video.

I've being trying to work out where this was filmed - it's definately not the Roxy in London, all the posters on the wall are in English with adverts for 'Flanagans'?

[PoireauMan68]

he's fakin' he sounds like jane Birkin...

[AnomicHumanist]

The Stranglers n'ont pas permis aux règles de punk de leur dicter. C'etait cool. Punk etait fantastique et nouveau mes beaucoup de regles...defense de ci et de cat.
