The Stranglers: Suite XVI. (2022 Reissue). Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

The reissue has become one of celebrity fashion, and for the lover, the admirer, the enthusiast, they are moments released once more in time that showcase the need to pay attention to what is being played out in front of you; for in the initial release you are listening to the statement put out by all concerned, studio, management, public relations, and the band, but it could be argued that the re-release, the box set, the first time on vinyl is done by the band only…others may find their input heeded, but the band, the group, if we avoid the notion of lucre playing its part, want you to hear their full and non-edited feelings…they want the unabridged sigh of contentment to be immersive, to be unshackled.
