Tam played with Gerry Rafferty and lived in Shoreham for years, taught me my first few riffs on bass when I was 14.

Another Shoreham resident of decades, arguable the greatest Scottish guitarist.

I must confess that this lovely band who I loved are Scottish. Welll, that just shows how non-racialist I am.

Did somebody say Andy Stewart? Well, here's Andy M. Stewart. Nice lad - knew him slightly (his GF was a friend of my then GF), and once was in the support act when he was with Silly Wizard (see several posts back!)

This lot were pretty good too - contemporaneous with AWB, and some of us thought they were the ones who would go on to greater fame.

It took a long time but......

Good thread, lads, lads and everyone. Almost completely devoid of Krankies, wankies and hanky-pankies.

I'm off, now, to commune with my humans. Happy New Year, you lovely, funny bartsards.

Happy New Year!

He himself was English, but the Commotions were formed when he was at Glasgow Uni and the rest of them were Scots. I could have chosen anything from 'Rattlesnakes' one of the greatest and most underrated albums ever:

King Creosote:




I'm a big fan / advocate of regional accents in pop music, & wasn't it agreed that Scottish is everyones favourite?

Happy Hogmanay!

 

[Napier]

Fantastic live.

 

[Gwylan]

OK, the band's not Scottish but the singer is ... and I just love this song

[Pevenseagull]

slightly indulgent to use this clip

........if you look carefully there's a 22yr old Pevenseagull in the crowd, recently graduated with a 2:1 in ecology and about to start a masters in environmental diagnostics, convinced that he would solve all the troubles in the world, ****ed off his tits
