[Man Utd Mrs]

The Bay City Rollers

Nazareth
The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

I like Junior Campbell ,(ex-Marmalade)
Nazareth
The Sensational Alex Harvey Band.

 

[UBERScholes]

Biffy Clyro, although didn't rate their new album that highly

Arab Strap as well, just because that name seems pretty filthy. Plus, it's fun listening to Scotsmen brooding quietly over Scottish lasses all being slappers

[Man Utd Mrs]

Belle and Sebastion?
Ultravox?
Slik?

 

[Man Utd Mrs]

Idlewild?
Wet Wet Wet ?
Primal Scream?

 

[Man Utd Mrs]

Andy Stewart?

Spoony, is Andy Stewart,Jermaine's long lost brother?

 

[jimreid]

Jesus & Mary Chain and Primal Scream.

Not just the best bands to come out of Scotland. They are the best bands coming out of Britain.

 

[Melbourne Red]

The only Jesus and Mary Chair song I know is 'Head On', owing to the fact that The Pixies covered it.

It's a great song.

I might download some other tracks.

 

[a_devil_inside]

Primal Scream
Travis are ok in small doses
Garbage & Biffy Clyro are ok too
Franz Ferdinand are shite

 

[Spoony]

Andy Stewart?

Spoony, is Andy Stewart,Jermaine's long lost brother?

I think they're twins.

[Robbo]

Jock McTavish and his singing Haggis

 

[REd FUn DevIl]
