Wasn't all that much into punk back in the 70's but I did love The Stranglers, they had a much different approach to punk than most punk bands did!

The only song I know by The Stranglers is from a vinyl punk comp I used to have that featured X Ray Spex's "Oh Bondage, Up Yours". The song was "Peaches"; "Walkin' on the beaches lookin' at the peaches..."

Big Stranglers fan. Most people forget that they were called The Stanglers Four (IV) four the first few albums.
I was lucky enough to see them twice. Once doing their classic material, and again during the "Feline" era, when they were more poppy (but still excellent).
I remember standing about six feet away from Jet Black, transfixed for the whole show, just watching him drum.
