Showing my age,

I saw Slade when they were still Skinheads,

in the Electric Gardens in Glasgow 1970

They visited the area very many times touring in those pre-chart Days

Including their 'infamous' visits to the Isle of Arran

Still talked about by Islanders, drink, more drink and loads of illegals

Back then, when on tour, they often spent 10 days on the tiny island

(Even when Topping the Charts they'd still do a small Gig in Brodick every Tour)
