We need to all get together and vote for Sunshine on Leith.

Fantasic album and craig and charlie are one of our own.

Looks like you vote for the favourite songs and some compilation of the highest votes goes together...I suspect it will result it a really awful album of populist music, which is a shame given how good the Scottish indie scene has been over the years... :agree:

My favourite would probably be malcolm middleton's a brighter beat tbh.

It is a great album! But I would refuse to vote for favourite music on the basis of what fitba team the artists support - entirely separate thing IMO.

Charlie and Craig would have a load of artists to lock horns with for the honour including The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Gerry Raferty, Big Country, the Rezillos, Average White Band, Associates, Orange Juice, Lulu, The Skids, most of AC/DC and many more.

Plenty of good Scottish music after 1987 as well you know ;)

Anything by RUNRIG.

And I think The Proclaimers first album was much better than SOL.

Real Radio are associated with this competition which makes me think you won't get far past Lulu, Texas and Wet Wet Wet sadly.

Anything off Psychocandy must be a winner, The Jesus and Mary Chain for the young indie boys looking in.:not worth

Waste of time this competition.

Everyone knows that "Philophobia" by Arab Strap is the best.

Sorry, but whilst The Proclaimers are brilliant, musically i would have to vote for either The Mary Chain, Idlewild or Josef K.

Ps, how hot does Clare Grogan look in that picture?!

This should really be no contest as the best album from a Scottish group in the last 40 years is Average White Band - 'White Album'

OK, Thirteen or Songs from Northern Britain are more polished and produced but none of them have bandwagonesques energy and wahwah distorted guitars. Double FACT. Fact Fact infact.

Production aside, Grand Prix and SFNB (and arguably Thirteen) just have better songs on them.

Don't get me wrong though, Bandwagonesque is great. And that IS a fact.
