The Skids - Charade or Working for the Yankee Dollar. They were my favourites back in the day and still sound both exciting and unique.
Strike Nineteens
Single called Delicate by the Strike Nineteens, absolutely brilliant, a great band to look out for in the future.

Hi Vic, Looking past the obvious choices How about we go back to the halcyon days when late 60s pop was turning into early 70s rock. My choice is Spiggy Topes. I'm not sure they ever released a record as Spiggy Topes although they were the first North East Band to sighn a major contract when they became Cliff Bennett's Rebellion. Somewhere there must be recordings they made for the old Radio 1 Club. If you could find the song "White Ghost," written by their bass player, Johnny Gray, about a ghost who supposedly haunts the graveyard at Beauly Church
