Best three bands to emerge from Scotland.

[Hair Flick]

Rod Stewart.

In truth most people are just listing Scottish bands here.

That's kind of the object of the exercise

No the idea is to list the best Scottish bands. Most are just listing 3 bands who they know are Scottish while a few are trying to prove how eclectic their taste in music is.

A handful are playing the game correctly.

 

[errant]

Proclaimers

They would win the one hit wonder poll, or two hit wonder at a push.

 

[Wred]

The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Del Amitri
Big Country

 

[Billericay Dichio]

Rod Stewart.

Born and bred in London Shirley?


OP was close but I'd replace Nazereth with Frankie Miller.

And don't forget ISB.

 

[Big Duke Six]

Struggling to name any.

You must be an idiot then?

 

[sadders]

Was just listening to Franz Ferdinand this morning. Are Scottish or Sunderland?

 

[T_Bone]

Rod Stewart.

In truth most people are just listing Scottish bands here.

In truth I listed the three Scottish bands I like the most, there are quite a few others I have liked over the years but the three I listed are the ones I think are the best.
You named Rod Stewart. He is not a band and he is not Scottish.

[Tex]

Aztec Camera

Friends Again

Orange Juice

I used to absolutely detest that friggin Friends Again song with the swirly keyboard that they used to play every night in Ku Club.

But later became a huge fan of Love and Money, saw them loads of times on tour, got backstage at the Shaw Theatre right after the final exam of my degree. Great bunch of lads and it’s absolutely criminal that James Grant is not a household name.

Average White Band
The Proclaimers
Simple Minds

Stick Love and Money in there instead of that awful pair of slavvering speccy gimps and that would have been my three.

It was a joke btw, he's not 3 bands either.

You named Rod Stewart. He is not a band and he is not Scottish.

He should be banned though.

 

[T_Bone]

He should be banned though.

Yes. I've seen him quite a few times as the Mrs loves him. The last time we saw him I was nodding off. He has lost it.
