I tried viewing the full list last week but couldn't get anything more than the chance to (belatedly) vote. Any links to the full list please? I'd be...
Seems like you'd need to buy Is This Music for the whole thing - which is, of course, the point of doing them. I thought the notion of deciding from a given...

I's agree with all of that, though I do like the thought that Next came in so highly. Perhaps only having one choice might have helped SAHB as there's no split...
A bit late maybe, but can I say how much I enjoyed the CD that got sent out to us. Listening to Faith Healer makes me feel I'm back at the Underworld watching...

We also got snippets of "big louie" and "tomorrow belongs to me",All three songs not written by SAHB so I doubt the guys will get any dosh, but it's a wee bit...
Okay, it's time to give this serious consideration - and before I start I'd like to say I'm genuinely grateful for the amount of interest that's already been...

There was a scottish punk band based in Vancouver Canada called The Real McKenzies that used bag pipes....the pipers name was Mcleod who later formed Bourne...
Well, everyone said that Big Country's guitars sounded like bagpipes. Irish band Black 47 use Uillean Pipes as a part of their horn section I can' t think of...
... When I saw them in the 70s I thought he had a set of pipes, but was actually doing the talkbox thing with the guitar player, just a bit of show. Eric ...
Just heard Ted McKenna being interviewed (briefly) on Radio Scotland about the closure of the Ca Va studios in Glasgow, or something like that anyway....
There's a band on our side of the pond from Toronto called the Mudmen who have a pair of pipers. They rock pretty good, and have a wonderful song called 'drink...
