soundian Posted October 24, 2004 Report Share Posted October 24, 2004 The Shamen only had one Scottish person in their numbers so i'd hardly call them a "Scottish band" In their original incarnation they were from Aberdeen, Mr C, (Richard West?, not sure) was the only non scots guy and joined after Alone Again Or had morphed into the Shamen.

Alvin Starclusk Posted October 24, 2004 Report Share Posted October 24, 2004 Out of that list, I managed to pull out 3 that I actually consider to be any good and one that I didn't mind.Great...Primal ScreamBoards of Canada Good...Idlewild Passable...The Beta BandAlways found it weird that Scotland doesn't really produce that many great bands, and the calibre of some of the ones in that list says everything.

Yes!! I will be there.

Guest Ancient Mariner Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 The Waterboys had Irish members, but Mike Scott IS the Waterboys, and he's Scottish. Plus their last album was recorded in Findhorn. Anyone going to see them next month at the 'Tree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
