The Pride of East Kilbride may sound like a flute band but it is now our official title for Jesus And Mary Chain, who were from the Scottish new town. William and Jim Reid's hair were magnificent vertical structures but it wasÌýtheir guitar's tendency towards feedback that marked out their records.
How close did the Flaming Groovies get to actually nicking a complete Beatles song ? The title "Yes It's True" sounds like a b-side and the song itself sounds like it belongs on With The Beatles. I imagine the Groovies would regard that as the highest praise.ÌýHomage, your honour, is the case for the defence.
