How about 'Hand on your Hearts' by Kylie Lochalsh

Or for the stadium rockers amongst you - Genesis and Peter Gabriel at their most spectacular in 1974 with the album 'The Lamlash down on Brodick'.

Saltcoats by Patty Loveless


Saltcoats was before me
It was cold and it was grey
I asked my sweet Master (aka Claymore)
Oh what must I do

Saltcoats was ugly
So tattered and torn
The harbour an old one
was full of old porn
