The Stranglers - Peaches

The bass isn't dirty enough agreed. Correct me if I'm wrong but I remember reading something years ago that JJ's bass sound came from the fact he used speaker cabs with blown speakers in.

@ukbritbulldog True, but sadly the amp was knicked during the Meninblack tour and never recovered. They lost their unique bass sound after that.

Dave still uses a mic like this

[AtticusStount]

those mics look silly.

[warpedwiselegoman]

ye olde mics.

[allyplumb]

Yep only lasted one tour they had sound problems with them and were never used again, one of those 80's experimental things which didn't work..

GREAT SONG, check out my vid PEACHES live 2010

Tempo is up a bit compared to the studio edit - pretty normal for a live performance.

[RattusNorvegicus77]

Bass just doesn't sound right for this.

[azuriterules]

I tihnk the bass is fine. Maybe it's just the way that's it live

@RattusNorvegicus77 it's been far too compressed using a compression pedal i know what you mean
