"Nice 'n' Sleazy" is a single by The Stranglers from the 'white' side of their 1978 album, Black and White. It reached number 18 in the UK Singles Chart.[1] The single's cover pictured a victim of the Boston Strangler.[2]

Strippers embellished the song during the band's headline set at Battersea Park on 16 September 1978.[3] "The Stranglers booked some strippers to up the show's visual aspect," recalled photographer Barry Plummer. "But some of the lads in the audience got a bit carried away and also stripped completely naked. Eventually the police were called and took down all of the young ladies' particulars."[4]

Cultural references

A punk festival named after the song is held annually in Morecambe, Lancashire.[5]

A bar located on Glasgow's Sauchiehall Street is named after the song. It was first opened in 1991.
