Indeed!  Quite a coup, and Cardinal Follies too (now that IS a blast from the hazy past!).

Strangely, Paul Haig was rarely talked about when I worked in the business in Scotland, and I don't think anyone I knew, knew him either at the time, we just listened to his music admiringly.  IIRC, he was Edinburgh-based and, at the time, the Edinburgh scene wasn't too prominent.

Aye Murray, your knowledge of the Scottish music scene back then is admirable. Some very interesting posts you've made, squire.   Cool  Wink

Another one to search out is the eponymous "Those French Girls" album.  produced by 5 guys from Stirling released on Safari Records in 1982.  I managed years/eons ago to get hold of their sole album off of a Canadian seller on Ebay.
