Hugh Cornwell is perhaps most famous for being the lead singer with The Stranglers up until 1990. He has since gone on to have a very successful solo career.
With just him on stage with a single guitar HC delighted us with a song from each of the first ten Stranglers albums followed by a gambol through some of his solo work before ending with a few Stranglers classics.
He was in fine voice, strummed up a storm and interspersed the songs with some funny anecdotes.
Great night out.
