[kj] OT: the Skids

[Alexander Smith]

Thanks for everyone's advice & info. Picked up a twelve-dollar "best 
of" (with a really crap cover....shirtless, chicken-chested pasty Scots 
in leather trousers....., but who cares, eh?) and it's pretty much got 
everything I need. They sort've turned crap by the end it seems. Sounds 
like a fair estimation? I quite like "The Saints are Coming", but "Into 
the Valley" remains their finest hour.

Cheerz,

Alex in NYC
