Recently saw Squeeze live. Tilbrook sounded great and was ripping leads. Got me thinking how talented but under appreciated he is/has been. The guy is extremely talented and has written and played some great music for a long time.

I saw X open for them at the Tabernacle in 2019. I went for X but they were really good too.

Same here. They pretty much played the whole album at their show (no surprise).

My favorite pop/rock band of the 80's. Saw them at McAlister at Tulane, saw them at Tipitina's a few years later.

Saw them live at Tip’s in the 90’s. Good show. Tight vocals, of course.

It was great. Poor Billy Zoom had to sit, but he still rocked and Xene is a ball of fire.

I love Squeeze. I wanted to see them on their recent U.S. Tour but just couldn't make it work.

Been watching some of their live stuff on YouTube, they still sound fantastic.

Goodbye Girl is such a banger.

I saw them open for Elvis Costello at the Warehouse in New Orleans in 1982. That was a great show and I was right in the front.

No Carrack. Show was in 1990. He was with them for one year in the early 80s and then again in 92/93.

Singles 45s has always stayed in my rotation. A gold standard of my HS days.

Without question the most played album in my dorm room. I don't even know how I was exposed to them.

I was actually trying to remember how I discovered squeeze…pretty sure it was a friend I carpooled with to high school. I remember he had a cassette of the police’s first album and probably had singles/45s also
