Residing on Neal Street, Covent Garden this Rather Dingy Gay Club's One Year Sacrifice to the Emerging Punk Scene and the Contribution it Made as a Launch Pad Cannot Be Overstated.

In 2013, the great five-disc Stranglers box set The Old Testament: The U.A. Studio Recordings (1977-1982) from 1992 was reissued, featuring most of the group's best albums plus a bunch of drool-worthy bonuses (demos, B-sides, remixes, and other whatnot).
