TUESDAY


Quite a few lads and colleens with whom the Brennans went to school have cousins in Glasgow.


'Against the Wind' - Máire Brennan

lost my mojo a bitty.
Relying on a pun for this one.
To do with Scottish rivers.
Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald
They Can't Tay(ke) That Away From Me
Ella never gets played when I request her. Others get her played. Which must mean she's appreciated. So I shouldn't whinge.
This is a wonderful jazz song. Even if folk don't like jazz, there's no getting away from the lushness of the arrangement and sound. Wonderful. And two jazz legends in one. Just my opinion.
They can't take that away from me.

Alexander Graham Bell

inventor of course of the phone with its ringing bell, but not a lot of people know he founded Bell Records. Home to an amazing arrary of superb acts in the 70's, lots of glam acts but also of course:

Showaddywaddy - Trocadero

TUESDAY

'Seven Shades of Blue' - Macbeth Nielsen Chapman

Also who could have thought they would name a whole space programme after a scottish Theatre - The Apollo! Ive always wondered why, but still no matter:

Adam Ant - Apollo 9

BRING ME THE HEAD OF THE CLAN BURNETT!

Something in the Ayr -- Thunderclap Newmains

someone must have asked for it
Phil Collins In The Ayr Tonight
and if you play stuff that is even less punable and applicable, hell mend you. Phil isn't anyone's favourite anything. Doesn't make him a bad person. He's still recorded a fair few memorable songs. Some folk are a bit anal about drummers and philanderers and stuff.

assuming then that it doesn't just have to be the artist who has the connection?

Collins - Publishers (Glasgow)

Hello

Roseanne Cash can trace her roots to the Scottish Village of Falkland. As famously did her father. She paid tribute to the Cash connection with Fife in a song called 'Good Intent', after the ship that carried the first Cash across the Atlantic in the 17th century. But I would like to hear:

Roseanne Cash - Sea of Heartbreak

The Sawney Beane Clan - The Real McKenzies
See you Later, Alligator - Bill Haley and his

Start A Band - Keich Urban with Brad Paisley

#58
many moons ago there was a cafe in falkland called the hayloft. I only remember cos it was the first time I'd ever had a roll in a hayloft

I am maybe wrong here but did Judy Collins visit Scotland and be inspired by the sight of whales and record the song Farewell To Tarwathie backed to the sound of humpback whales?

I don't know about that but Stephen Stills was walking through the dunes and was inspired by the sight of Collins to write Suite Judy Blue Eyes, John Fred and His Playboy band happened to be rowing past and were inspired to write Judy in Disguise and Steve Harley, who by chance was water skiing, was inspired to write Judy Teen. Collins' most famous song was, of course, Whalemeat Again.

Lesley Duncan was born in Stockton-on-Tees but lived on Mull until her death.

Lesley Duncan - 'Love Song'

#63 that is incredible.

And the Scottish whales are humpbacked because of their poor diet and unhealthy lifestyle.

Seldom heard on GIO....

Goo Goo Muck ~ T. Cramps

not forgetting

Cosmic Eigg - Wolfmother

and

Rum and Coca Cola - the Andrews Sisters

#66 they probably had rickets too

I saw Wolfmother supporting The Killers. I see they hail from Erskineville - there's a Scottish connection.

#69

Generations of deprivation. When did you last meet one with a job?

Flash and the Pan - 'Waiting On A Train'

The group included George Young (born in Glasgow) brother of Malcolm and Angus of AC/DC fame. He was also in The Easybeats.

AC/DC - 'Highway to Hell'

Aforementioned Malcolm and Angus Young (both born in Glasgow) and lead singer Bon Scott (born in Kirriemuir)

I always played WHALE MEAT AGAIN by JIM CAPALDI on the jukie at The Colledge of Knowledge Students' Union back when it was a big tent in N Hanover St before somebody set a motorbike on fire and burnt it down. I never realised the song was so unpopular. It was the B side of something or other and I don't know of any JP Scottish connection except that he has the same surname as a famous Scottish actor whose sister I once met.

#73 that rings a bell. Was it be side of Eve or It's all up to you. That was the only two Jim capaldi singles I ever owned. I've never even heard of spmething or other.

#74 been partaking?

Lloyd Cole met the Commotions at University of Glasgow.

Lloyd Cole and the Commotions - 'Perfect Skin'

Snow Patrol were formed at University of Dundee, oh dear ☺

Got to be some Queen or Blondie on tonight! Surely to goodness ☺

#75

Just be glad you're not sitting next to him an a bus.

#77 we live in hope....

JOHN MARTYN was born in England but was brought up and spent much of his life in Scotland (pubs, mostly).

His new album, HEAVEN AND EARTH, is out this month. Please play

CAN’T TURN BACK THE YEARS from HEAVEN AND EARTH by JOHN MARTYN

Whitjy mean ye huvnae got it?

Being a world superstar and choosing to live on the Mull of Kintyre must make Macca a contender for tonight.

McCartney 2 was made there and the live recording of Coming Up, from that album, at the Glasgow Apollo went to No1 in the States.

However, the Mccartney Scottish conection is also manifest in Wings Scottish guitarist, Jimmy McCullough so it's another opportunity to request Wings - Medicine Jar

... and John Lennon had childhood holidays in Scotland; Gimme Some Truth

And Snow Patrol is a token Scottish Band. Spitting Games

regardez youse

John Martyn's uncle was head of PE at our local skail. I'm still in touch with JM's cousin

Get John Martyn on
