Would you not say Average White Band were acceptable for Jutes?Quote:

Danny Wilson though were decent. Had a bit of success in the late 80s with Mary's Prayer, but I thought Second Summer of Love was the better single.
The Joker is a fantastic album. Your Cash Ain’t Nothin But Trash, Mary Lou, Something To Believe In, Sugar Babe…. We were watching something on the telly yesterday, and the date ‘September 1974’ was shown for some reason, which raised the question, “Fit were you listening to then?”Quote:

Of course AWB are acceptable, a fabulous soul band, although a goodly proportion of them were from Perth. Their big break was as support to Eric Clapton’s post-smack addiction comeback at the Rainbow in 1973.Quote:

It was a right ****ing laugh up here in the NE when they had a huge hit with Atlantic Avenue though, as that was the street in Peterheid that all the ba’heids, criminals, huns, hoors, and general wrong ‘uns gave as their addresses when their court appearances were reported in the P&J. XD

Steppppin ouuuttttt
Hard to define a 'classic' ... but mid 80s, I discovered a band who to my mind, produced many a 'classic' track, and who I continue to feed my ears with ....
The Men They Couldn't Hang ... Saw them several times live since 1986 ( when I joined them on stage on tin whistle ) ... and supported them 3 times with 2 different bands ... fantastic bunch o' guys and a wonderful band ... except, they were less than wonderful if they happened to 'party hard' the night before .... which, err .. well, it sometimes happened :D
