Favourite Artists Track 512 - Gerry Rafferty - nominated by Lez, Voting

[Spacepig]

Paisley born singer/songwriter Gerry Rafferty is Lez's next choice to be put under the spotlight.

Wiki lists 10 studio albums, but that doesn't include his releases with either The Humblebums or Stealer's Wheel, Not sure if we are allowed them or not, Lez - help!!!

Usual thing, noms in by 10 pm Sunday evening, leave a link to your nom, and feel free to come back next week to vote.

One to keep tabs on?

Sorry Serial; not my fave artist, the best known ones had gone so it's a random one from me! Sackcloth and ashes for the rest of today I guess.

You've got to stop listening to those "Hits & Memories" stations Duke! I still like "Baker Street". But Gerry had plenty of songs worth nominating. I hope we'll see "Her Father Didn't Like Me Anyway" and "Days Gone Down" perhaps????

"Her Father Didn't Like Me Anyway", didn't realise Gerry Rafferty wrote that. I thought it was Shane Macgowan, as I know his version with The Popes, from The Snake album.

I can honestly say, the only radio station i generally listen to, is BBC Radio 2...so maybe you're right Val! :)

I was hoping to find time to go and have a good dig for a suitable nom, but it just didn't happen so I am going with Val's suggestion instead

10 voters for the 10 noms this week, awesome stuff.

It was a close race but grabbing the glory this week theDuke with Get It Right Next Time on 1 points. Just one point behind, Serial picks up the silver with Shipyard Town. A big 5 points further back, but still a bronze for Val with Royal Mile (Sweet Darlin').

The wooden spoons fester for another week.

[theDuke]

Cool! Cheers folks. :)
