Scotland's Greatest Album

For the Album, Aztec Camera, 'High land, Hard Rain'. Not from north of the border myself, so not steeped in early 80's sweaty lore, but hard to imagine much better came out ...

As a one off tune, would probably be 'rip it up'
 
1. Book of Brilliant things (live version, from the city of light. SM
2. Where the rose is won Big country
3. Sanctify yourself SM
4. Only tender love Deacon blue (sound very much like a U2 song)
5. Fisherman,s blues - waterboys

all 80's but all great.

I'm up on hols in 2 weeks in fife, what are my chances of getting tickets in the Hibs end for the Celtic game, I looked on the website recently, but I think I have to wait until a certain date before applying. Should I be ok for 2 tickets, do you think, or will hibs sell out?

No idea mate, haven't been to a game in years. To be fair, the way Hibs are playing this year I doubt we'll sell our allocation.

Hello Mr. Brown, I've tried, unsuccessfully to get tickets from Hibs, but unfortunately due to it being a high security game, they wont allow anyone have tickets who have not been to a previous game. Do you know anyone who could help me to get 2 tickets? If so PM me, I can send the money in advance.

Please, call me Strangely ;)

I don't think I know anyone who travels to away games any more. I'll check with some folk that are season ticket holders at Easter Road to see if they can do anything.
 
If you Scots want a vote for a Scottish album I'd recommend Internal Exile by Fish. His second solo album and with a lot of political undertones about the social and economic climate of the time. A few decent tracks on their too

Thanks Mr. Strangely, It is actually a home game, but they have this rule of you have had to have gone to a previous game. I think it is to stop Celtic fans not getting in the Hibs end.

I told them I was on hols and I'm not a Bhoy, from Liverpool etc, but it would not wash with them.

It's either that or Dundee Utd v Falkirk. I like to go to different footy grounds (been to about 70 in England), but haven't done Hibs or Dundee United, so would like to get it in whilst up on hols, but the Hibees is my preference, as could be a big upset.

So far done Celtic 7-8 times, Rangers twice , Aberdeen once, Dundee 3 times!!! But so far not Hibernian, I missed an opportunity about 10 years ago because I was told that Hibs v hearts would be a sell out, only to see 2-3000 empty spaces and Hibs won about 6-4 I think.
 
What do Hibs have to do with Scotland´s greatest album? Thank God Justagolfer isn´t following this thread.
Anyway, getting back to the point. Gerry Rafferty???????????
 
Would Midge Ure qualify from his Ultravox days?? If so plenty of good stuff to choose from there. Homer thought Suits might edge internal exile by Fish, some good stuff there as well.
 
Remember we're meant to be picking 3 singles from each decade to make a compilation album...not a whole album itself.

The singles chosen already from the 70s and 80s are in the link in the OP.
