13.0. "Slide" by NEEPS::IRVINE (Bob Irvine @EDA) Tue Nov 21 1989 07:06

    Anyone heard a band called SLIDE?
    
    I have been told that they are from Glasgow, but thats all I know
    about them so far.  I have heard the album, very melodic and definately
    wont appeal to the hard line thrashers out there, but I would love
    to find out more...
    
    Any ideas Tom....

    I've heard the single Bonzo and I agree very melodic, but can't
    say much more. 
    
    They seem to be gigging extensively around the UK recently, most
    noticeably as support to GUN, who I know a bit more about having
    bought the album.
    
    I have a feeling that GUN and SLIDE wont be too dissimilar in attitude/
    style of music etc..etc..
    
    One other point about SLIDE. If publicity counts for anything, then
    they should do pretty well as the W. of Scotland music stores have
    been ramping up the albums' virtues by the way of large Promo posters
    etc.
    
    Whaddya think Bonzo - SLIDE == GUN ?

    I saw SLIDE play(they were supporting the RIVER DECTIVES)SLIDE were
    really good solid R'n'R worth listening to,while the RIVER DECTIVES
    were crap and depressing.

    the guys from GUN were in the back of the hall watching too
