Running the risk of the usual scorn of [MENTION=205]Tom Hark, Preston Park[/MENTION] here, but this is a respectful thread of the finest in Scottish music, part of the UK that had given us much joy over the years, with which to celebrate the end of a decade.

Goosebumps every time, heavenly for me, from my teenage years:





I adored Clare Grogan


@HWT .... what a good idea for a thread. An early; Happy New Year & Decade to you.

Dreamy, and unfortunately in the wrong place at the wrong time, but a band well worth checking out. Singer died in his late 40s

I wish! No, I liked SNAFU and I'm 110% certain I have never seen them live (apart from Whistle Test). I think it may have been Trapeze, with Glenn Hughes.

I'll add another two by these lovelies. Majestic voice, and jangly guitar, what's not to adore?
