6 Music Classic Concert

Chris Hawkins introduces The Stranglers, recorded live at London's Dominion Theatre in 1985. The Stranglers remain among the most enigmatic of all the major punk rock bands. They're either loved or loathed, no band's fans are more loyal and no band's critics more vitriolic, yet The Stranglers have remained one of the greatest punk rock 'n' roll bands in Britain. This performance features songs from their 1984 album 'Aural Sculpture' and a few of the now classic Stranglers numbers, without which... well it just wouldn't be a Stranglers gig.
