393.0. "Sideway Look" by FERNEY::CHISHOLM (a blues for buddha) Wed Apr 05 1989 19:10

    
    	Another request for info note -
    
    	I recently bought the album "Taming the Blade" by a band
    	called "Sideway Look", tremendous stuff, I want more!, and
    	the sleeve notes say this is their third album, but does 
    	not name the other two.
    
    	The band are from Central Scotland, supposedly brilliant live
    	and the albums would have been out around '84-'86.
    
    	Hilfe! Au Secours! 'elp!
    
    	Doug (Spurtle) (tracks inc. Battlesound, Unlock the Capital,
    			Handcutted, Into the Sunset, Great Divide)

    	Thanks, I'd appreciate it
    
        I tried a coupla record shops in Glasgow when I was back in June,
    	but they didn't even have 'Taming..'
    
    	I noticed this a lot while I was in Munich, the CD shop I used
    	(WOM) had a MUCH wider selection than I've seen in the UK, 
    	perhaps because they make a lot of the CD's in Germany? e.g.
    	I have an album 'Cat Among the Pigeons' by 'Roaring Jack' sort
    	of Australian/Scottish version of the Pogues (but better!), and 
    	a friend tried to get it in the UK, no chance.
