@abigail.deeks I've always had a thing for Scottish bands - without even realising it. Just so many were wonderful. Gun were from Glasgow - they released the album Taking On The World around in 1988 - it's a brill album. Other singles were Better Days, Shame On You, Money . . . Some members left the band and they became less good. I havent heard any newer stuff but I saw they were touring this year, and If I'd realised I defo would've gone to see them. I love gigs in smaller venues .
Great track Lindy. If you keep 'sponsoring' Scottish bands like this. you'll qualify for a freebie on independence! Agree about Texas first album btw and also identify with @kfa444 comment on Ms Spiteri...

@kfa444 I liked Texas's first album - kinda went down hill a bit after that.
