One of the seminal bands of the 80s and 90s. William Reid, love or hate his style was a highly influential and innovative guitarist. I think they should be let in the rock and roll hall of fame.

Thin Lizzy first, then we can talk about other Irish bands!

Nevermind.

Just found out they’re from Scottland. I thought they were Irish.

Highly influential alternative rock band from Scotland. Maybe a bit too "British centric" and offbeat for the hall, but along with fellow fine Scot bands Big Country and The Waterboys, they deserve serious consideration.
