notes
This is a great recording of The Stranglers at the cusp of their career, just before Golden Brown went global and saved their bacon. They had just had a commercial disaster with the Gospel According to the Meninblack album and had no choice but to go back to the studio in the summer of that year; they quickly released a second LP in 1981. More upbeat, but no less eclectic, La Folie is a gem of a record... and little did they know at the time of this gig how huge that first single would be. This is a favouritr period of mine and this tape does the band justice. Sit back and enjoy!
