Hi Vic! F is for Franz Ferdinand and Take Me Out! Already a classic!

F? Gotta be Fake Patriots! Try "Obscene & Not Heard" from the Avoid Me E.P.(2002) on Intimidation Records.Classic Scottish punk!

Ed Jupp
Franz Ferdinand, Fire Engines, Frightened Rabbit Fratellis...

Stuart
How about playing a track from everyones favourite music making driving instructor - Sushil K Dade a.k.a Future Pilot AKA. The Eyes of Love is a good recent track.Cheers

Frightened Rabbit - Good Arms v Bad Arms (off the best album of the year)

Joe Rattray
Good shout with the Associates!

Austie
"Chelsea Dagger" by the Fratellis.Get it done.

I too suspect The Austrian Archdukes will get it, but I'll stick out a wee shout for the big 'Fish' in our small pond. Almost anything from "Vigil in a wilderness..." or 13th Star would do, so to keep somewhat current: 'Arc Of The Curve'

alex
aereogramme should have been A but hey its not up to me really enjoy this idea

I reckon Franz Ferdinand will win this letter hands down but i wouldn't mind hearing something by Glasgow Indiepop band the Felt Tips? Their last single was a 7-inch vinyl in September but not sure that one can be played on the radio - no swearing, but some pretty dark and unexpected lyrical content behind the happy tune!

Hi Vic,For 'F' it's got to be Candyskin by the Fire Engines.All The Best & love the show!
