Its not for me listening to Stranglers songs without keyboards, if you say hughs done 10 solo albums he should just play his own material and just do a couple of Stranglers songs in the encore. Glad you enjoyed the gig and you met Hugh.
I've never understood why Cornwell left the Stranglers, since now they are just separately playing the same music they did together. Did he cut his nose off to spite his face? It is a bit of a joke.
@@GodfreyTempleton I guess his prolific output since leaving the Stranglers may be an indication. Personally, I much prefer his post-Stranglers material to the stuff the Stranglers have put out since he left. In my opinion, 10 wasn’t a great album and Hugh left at the right time. Either way, fans of good music are always on a winner where Hugh is concerned. And we mustn’t lose sight of the fact that, sadly, the Stranglers is now really only a cover band given that just one of the original line up is playing in the group.
@@GodfreyTempleton Listen to the Rockonteurs podcast episode with JJ. Basically, JJ said Hugh thought he deserved more recognition, stopped playing guitar on stage and basically turned into a bit of a dick - Hugh thought he was bigger and better (and I saw Hugh play last night and he was excellent!)
@@saorsa5 agree, Britain is not a country - don’t think I said it was. But British people do have a sense of humour that is different to that say, in Australia.
@@roybarnes-thewildlifeman1855 you are calling us British people Scottish never British stop generalising I'm from the country called scotland with Scottish sense if humour not a British sense of humour im Scottish not fkn British ffs

@saorsa5 oh dear. Britain is England, Scotland and Wales, made up of around 6000 islands (including Ireland) it’s like two fleas arguing over the dog they live on (Crocodile Dundee) 🫶

@@roybarnes-thewildlifeman1855 You personally opine about Cornwells output, yet you don't answer the question - why did he leave?

@@sdh8286 Thank you for your reply.
Love Hugh..But its obviously time to chill out and retire.
This man and the other three, was on my bedroom wall in 1978. He is a legend, no doubt about it but, I've no interest in his music.
Please there is no such thing as a British sense of humour he is English Britain is not a country
