Good to see the Mary Chain and Cocteau Twins on there.
Got to agree with that: of all the cream of what we quaintly used to call 80s 'alternative' music (Smiths, Order, Bunnymen, Pixies), the JAMC and the Cocs have been left behind in the reputation stakes. 90% of my students are Scottish, and yet none of them have ever heard of either band when this poxy fucking country should really be building statues in their honour!!
