Been in a few bands over the years wi Bob. He has a certain finesse for nailing the EXACT guitar sound for any song or artist! But must say his forte is Stranglers, think he must've shown Cornwell how to play.These guys will be awesome,sooner see em than the Stranglers (never the same since Cornwells departure)All the best lads.Jep.

I'm French, from Toulouse. I said "Goodbye Toulouse" 20 years ago.
Great cover guys. Any chance to see you in Paris ?

'I've seen the Stranglers over 30 times. The first time in Oct 1977 at Top Rank in Reading, when Heroes was still in the charts.
You guys have captured the keyboards fantastically. Very impressive there. The guitar sounds almost better than Hugh Cornwall. Your Bass player is up against trying to imitate JJ Burnel. Enough said about that. But the drummer? Jet Black was unique. He also had skill with using his high hat.

great guitar solo, and the tone, nice. What amp did you use for this song? I'd like to add also, it must be nice to have a keyboard player that knows these tunes and gets that sound. It's hard enough to find just a regular keybordist, hehe.

The amp was a little Marshall valvestate, but the tone comes purely from the Telecaster treated with a bit of crunch.
As for the keyboard player, one in a million doesn't do him justice. :-)

Don't listen to them... you guys are great. Weathered... tired, a little dazed... but tight and wonderful. Well done mes amis.

LOL, we can't help being weathered and tired- a little like the Stranglers themselves- owing to the inevitable passage of time, but your comments are much appreciated, Rocky. :-D
