[kj] OT: the Skids

[mattdunn]

no, now he is a film director. Has a new film out, something about 15 years
of alcholism which has had good reviews.
at least he is no longer a 'male model'.
Castles in Spain by the Armoury Show is worth checking out. Unless my memory
deceives me it also features the late John Mcgough (i know that's not how
you spell his name, but i've had a lot to drink. On a school night as well).

Who dares gins!

  There are two best of CDs. I think the better of the two is called "The
Very Best of The Skids". Its got all the faves plus their version of "All
The Young Dudes" and a one of my faves "Hymns From A Haunted Ballroom".

  Richard Jobson became a presenter on Scottish TV many years ago, and I
think he still is.

    There's a Skids "best of" CD that has a large number of tracks from
their two albums.  Its all good stuff.  I think this best of cd is even
budget priced (I paid around $12.00 dollars for it).  Pick it up.  It's
worth a listen.

      Off topic for a tic....

      Just was wondering what the Gathering thought of Scotland's SKIDS
      (featuring future-Big Country gent, Stuart Adamson on
      bagpi...er...guitar). I've never owned any of their albums, but the
      clutch of singles I've heard always sounded promising. I *LOVE* the
      production on "Into the Valley"...just got a really chugging, meaty
      guitar sound. Are they worth seeking out full albums by, or should I
      just stick with the odd singles I know?

      Just a-wonderin'.
