Have you got The Affectionate Punch in your top 10 albums, some cracking tracks and what a singer.
Nah, B. McK. was quite unique but not my cup o' tea. The best Dundee band IMO was Skeets Bolivar, which had Michael Marra in it. Couple of singles but they never made it, sadly.

Hello Paul. The spiritualised album, ladies an gentlemen we are floating in space. Was the cover made up like a prescription box for medicine. I'm sure I had that album but someone nicked it. It was a really good album from what I remember.
 
I'm trying to think of my top10 but every time I read someone else's List I'm like oh yeah that's a good album. With over 1600 albums now I'm struggling to come up with 10. Depending on mood the list would change so much. The Beatles, radio head, pink floyd, Paul Simon. All have more than one album an all are very good.

...yes my copy "Ladies and Gentlemen" is in a cardboard box like you get a tablet prescription in. The CD itself is in foil pack again like tablets - there was an even more expensive version where each track was on an individual 3" CD - again with each CD in a foil tablet pack :-

My favourite Spiritualized is probably "Pure Phase" which I have in a custom plastic box (which glows luminous green in the dark). But as much as I like Spacemen 3, Spiritualized, Spectrum etc they don't make my Top 10:-

1) Joy Division - "Unknown Pleasures"
2) Joy Division - "Closer"
3) Kraftwerk - "Ralf and Florian" (when will this get a CD Release :confused:)
4) Popol Vuh - "In the Gardens of Pharoa"
5) Neu! - "Neu!"
6) Throbbing Gristle "D.o.A the third and Final Report"
7) Virginia Astley - "From gardens where we feel secure"
8) Talk Talk - "Laughing Stock"
9) Blue Nile - "A walk across the rooftops"
10) Nick Drake - "Pink Moon"
