The Stranglers - Golden Brown Reaction (FOOW) 

Quality tune … it’s about Heroin, RIP Dave Greenfield, can’t believe it’s over 42 years since it was released ….

I used to long distance run with this in my head when it first came out . Love it.

Always were a great band worth a delve into the extensive quality back catalogue

Makes me think of the Movie Snatch.

Class this lick 🔥🔥

I'm new to this. Wondering if this is their typical sound. What a strange and wonderful song

Stunning. All about opium sailing from east to west. Some say 😊😂

Great band

Yeah you did this on your old channel. Golden Brown is about the opium route and ofcourse Heroin.

I'll go for a track of theirs I think is superb ' Genetix' Burnels bass on that track is sublime 👍

Hugh cornwell said it could be about drugs or women as both bought him pleasure. The drummer jet black said it was about toast 👍

Nice N Sleazy and Walk on By by them next please!

But if you want some more of the monster bass thier cover of walk on by is a must 👍

Yep. Heroin's the least musical drug, as it cancels out all human emotion - happiness; sadness; all neutralised into apathy. So, the idea someone would want to write a song about it (like Another Girl Another Planet) is absurd to me now. (Was it part of a more sinister agenda to normalise drug taking?...)

I have ahard time getting into the Stranglers. I dont know if its because they are too English sounding or what..they just never do much for me compared to any of the punk and post juggernaut bands from Uk in 1976-1980
