8. Easterhouse – Contenders
A brilliant mix of post-punk, jangle pop and fiery lefty political rage. Their debut came out the same day as their labelmates The Smiths, and ended up being overlooked by everyone.

Scheme put out some great music but never got anywhere as they were far too vocal about Thatcher, Reagan and world geopolitics. Probably a huge reason my views are as they are. We were lucky to grow up with them in Easterhouse educated many of us.

#nowplaying Easterhouse - Contenders (1986). They were a Scottish indie band named after the Easterhouse area of Glasgow. This was their debut album, #onmyturntable #myrecordcollection #easterhouse
Provan Hall in the east of Glasgow. Built in the late 15th Century, it's thought to be the city's oldest house (although similar claims have been made for the Provand's Lordship near Glasgow Cathedral).
