Some people forget that Scotland has had its share of brilliant bands. Teenage Fanclub, who being one of my favourite all-time bands, happens to fall in this category.
Let's not forget several other brilliant bands who have helped me survive being a teenager and really spoke words that made sense like The Jesus and Mary Chain, Aztec Camera / Roddy Frame, or Primal Scream. My only regret is not seeing Aztec Camera or Roddy Frame live. One of these days, I will see him live. But, it looks like I'd have to "cross the pond" to see him now. Not very many journeys to the States nowadays. Michael bought me a live Roddy Frame CD for me from eBay which is the closest thing to hearing him live at least. :O) Well, that and YouTube, it seems!
Without further ado, some videos courtesy of the great users of YouTube:
The Jesus and Mary Chain: Darklands
Aztec Camera: "Walk Out To Winter" Absolutely brilliant song!
Primal Scream: "Movin' On Up" from the fabulous 1992 album "Screamdelica"
