The Gigography for The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell

← All years

1991

Hugh Cornwell's first full year after leaving The Stranglers, spent largely working with Roger Cook and Andy West on what became the CCW project. The CCW album was recorded in December 1991 at Kohsan Studios in Bath, and included ten tracks co-produced by Neil Davidge. Only a handful of shows are documented online for this year — likely an incomplete list rather than his full 1991 schedule.
