Tinder by Hipsway

“The son of TWO Scottish Labour Party Politicians, pop guitarist Johnny McElhone left Altered Images for Hipsway, then after a while he was off forming Texas in the South Side of Glasgow. His child actor son co-starred with Gerald Butler. This is weird in any order you care to take it. Every Ale-Drinking Glaswegian knows this particular song from a tellybox ad aired during Scotland's attempt to win the World Cup in Mexico in 1986. Hence, #bittersweet

I just realised I hadn't jammed Hipsway in a long time - and I had to rectify that immediately. Love this . . . Some things never leave you . . . .   18
