a) I love the Starnglers (apart, obviously, from Written In Red, which is shite)

b) It took several searches for Starnglers on iTunes before I was sensible

c) The new single is OK. I dislike the Oasis vocal tune in the verse (particularly unfortunate considering the subject matter)

d) I would rate it higher if they hadn't comparatively recently released their finest track (since Mr Cornwell joined his acapella band), the majestic Spectre Of Love, from their finest album (since Mr Cornwell &c.), the majestic Suite XVI

e) Oh all right, Norfolk Coast is better than 10 too

f) At least JJ is singing it

g) Does the world really need another Starnglers compilation?

New download only Starnglers Single Retro Rockets available today.

From a new compilation Decades Apart.



Not a bad track considering the whole Stranglers history.



Nice compilation too, covers the whole history of the band at a decent price.



Available on iTunes and Amazon etc.



I know there are a couple of Stranglers fans on here and would be interested to hear what your opinions are!
