................did anyone catch that programme last night hosted by the lovely Clare Grogan (one of Devs first schoolboy crushes). I hated all the panellists but it was nice seeing some old footage of the 70's again. The Skids and Alex Harvey being a couple of my favourites. A nice trip down memory lane, especially The Old Grey Whistle Test. Next up the 80's. So who would be in that I wonder? The Associates, Altered Images, Big Country, Simple Minds, Jim Diamond, The Krankies?? Hope Eurthymics are not counted. Cannot abide Fannie Lennox and her **** singing. Besides Dave Stewart was the brains behind the music.
You cheeky sod - she was one of mine as well I think Dev's first one was Florence Nightingale actually
Clare Grogan would still get it The Rezillos and The Mary Chain (and their spin-off, the Scream) were the only Scottish bands in the eighties worth mentioning. Unless you're a tranny that's into the Associates, right enough
He hung himself in a hotel room in Hawaii. Shame. Liked The Skids and Big Country. Big Country were great live, although the last time I saw them was 1987/88.
Aztec Camera for the 1980s - best band ever ever ever ever in the world. Bluebells to be in there as well i suppose.
And then she lost the appetite for it. ****, I can't believe I just typed that. What a horrible person I am.
No, I think you'll find they had more than one song. They indeed produced a fair few albums so I think I'm right in saying they did more than one song.
