...you're surprised at the band's versatility, and that's the gist. Upon hearing SAHB for the first time (the "Next" album) I was flabbergasted at how diverse they were...and after I caught up, that feeling never abated. If I have a fave, it's Alex and those Tear Gas dudes...
There are quite a few Scottish bands, SAHB, Fish from Marilion Nazareth, Stone the Crows, The Almighty, and more contemporary, Big Country, Rod Stewart and the Bay City Rollers, not forgetting Lulu who went to a concert in which Alex Harvey sang 'Shout' and Lulu was so impressed she recorded the song and it became a massive hit and launched her career, circa 1964, I believe she was 14 years old at the time Alex also had a big hit with 'Boston Tea party, which was a very original and clever song, which explains why Americans drink coffee instead of Tea which was highly taxed

Thanks for the suggestions. I appreciate the links. Makes life easier. Did a little reading about Budgie today. Sounds like another band that didn't get the recognition they deserved.

Not a problem. I appreciate the suggestions. We can't have listened to everything so it's good to be reminded of someone that got away.
