@pacheckoff ahh...The Florentine Gardens!!! The true epicenter of partying in the L.A. area. So many memories, so long ago... Every time I hear The Stranglers or The Chameleons or Stiff Little Fingers I truly appreciate how fortunate I was to have been a teen during the 1980's; thus, the greatest era in music ever!!! Peace, love and the rock of the 80's my brothers and sisters!!!
@justlikenothing Too fucking true matey! When you`ve made ya time machine,any chance I can hop on??? I wanna go back to 1979,1985+1996....Any chance of a lift???
Long long ago BEFORE there was a computer in every home...I used to rock this over the RECORDPLAYER!!! see: webster's dictionary under recordplayer. and Me and My "friends" at the time used to smoke Panamanian red (stolen from my dad's stash)and gosh golly we used to have a good time without wii, twitter, x-box,play station,or cellphones! IMAGINE THAT!!!
Totally agree mate, but these days if me n my mates are blazin some green crystal ther is this premise that something electronic is needed to be entertained when actually the people, in the right mood, are the most fun.
@rastadudeseven imagine being hell of old and looking back on the so called "good days" i am 17 and i have a big record collection of quality music like this, and i hate wii and twitter and all of that. just because your old and have been there and done that doesn't mean us kids of the "new generation" don't know what's up

the best, big big influence on the band which I front the knavemen - myspace it - not a touch on the meninblack though - nothin is yeeha I feel like a wog
Man They Love To Hate, Hanging Around and Peaches are my favorite tunes by the Stranglers. early 80s growing up in L.A listening to KROQ and KNAC. Those were the days!
This was the album punk hardcore fans hated(at the time)! Also the album that non-fans bought!? After all these years.... True fans Lurve it,Brilliant+how true-the Stranglers Rewwllll!
LOVED this song in '82 when I was 13, love it now, will continue --- there's nothing else like it. Thank you, 106.7 KROQ, for introducing me to it all those years ago..
