I only got into them many years after Hugh left and by then you had access to the entire disgoraphy on the internet.

Whenever I feel like talking Stanglers on here there's always someone who's responsive. If memory serves, I registered on this board during Covid to talk Stranglers.

I could be misremembering but I think someone from MB even was at one their East Coast gigs in the early 1980s.
I saw them live in 1987, touring the Dreamtime album. They had a three piece horn section that played on some of the numbers. Hugh said "I should introduce them to you. But I'm not going to." Good to know he still had some punk rock attitude!
