The Stranglers - JJ Burnel "After They Were Famous" video free download

Ellie Sinclair

I love the stranglers and there music, it doesn't change how I feel about them because of how they may have acted in the 70's and 80's. we all make mistakes and regrets

I can't help but like the geezer.

"More notorious than successful." I don't think so...

MottTheWot

There is no doubt JJ's behaviour was one of the major reasons Hugh left, alongside Jet's variable temperament i think Hugh had more than enough of it.It's a shame really as i think the bad boy image and attitude was taken way too far by the band and this detracted from the music, it certainly didn't help with any positive promotion of the band as a serious progressive, experimental and hugely popular group. The Stranglers are great, but should've been greater.

Always a good scrap going on in the front few rows, hot n sweaty n loud as fuck, oh to be 17 again.....

He has calmed down a lot and now reads the Daily Telegraph! Once kicked down a door at TOTP's "because he wanted to." Got banned for a few years. Didn't like the crowd they pulled in though, too many people looking for trouble. Bit like the UK Subs.

Morphine?

Barney Cox

not havin ago or anythin but Joy Division

It seems that only JJ wanted to be bad at the time...others just felt uncomfortable while he teaches some poor news man "a lesson"...

Primus have lead bass too but stranglers bass sounds much better

markvader13

You obviously haven't heard much Joy Division then?

Amazing band - was a fan in late 70's and last time I saw them was last night in Cambridge (Corn Exchange). Me and a few hundred other middle aged men and women, some with their teenage kids. Fantastic gig. Back in 77 I'd have seen them tanked up on cider and speed - these days living the sober life thanks to AA.

2nd song was curfew off black and white

Ian Curtis was the leader of Joy Division, and the one who made it was it was I think.

Tory Starbuck

He is great! Another unique band with a lead bass sound is Japan, with Mick Karn on fretless bass and woodwinds.

Mark Shippen

Thats because they were influenced by the Stranglers dark and apocolyptic Black and White and the early sound of Rattus with its grrowling bass.
