    Horse are a scottish band, which are now finally getting airplay on the
    national radio stations.
    
    The album is called "The Same Sky" and current single in the UK is
    "Careful".  If you want a full listing of tracks etc, let me know, I
    have the CD on my desk at the moment.
    
    The singer Horse reminds me a lot of early Alison Moyet, and has a
    tremendous range.  I highly recommend the CD.
    
    Hope this helps.

    breathe me
    you could be forgiven
    don't call me
    sweet thing

    careful
    
    CD Single - Sweet Thing
    
    sweet thing
    a place like today
    cat dancing
    its all my heart could do
    
    CD Single - Careful
    
    careful
    wichita lineman
    time to kill (demo)
    sweet thing (live acoustic version)
    
    I think the single you probably heard would be Careful, its a slow
    number, with amazing vocals.
    
    No idea when they are playing in Scotlan or anywhere else at the moment
    but I'll keep my ears open and let you know.

    	I think they're playing an acoustic set at the big "Poll-tax
    anniversary concert". This might be in Glesga.

    Kat
766.11AYOV16::SROBERTSONWed Jul 21 1993 09:424
    Calton Hill is a left on Princes street after Waverley Railway Station
    - going west to east on Princes Street.You then take another left about
    100 yds further down  - I take it it's Calton Studios - and there's two
    venues on this street.
766.12impending release? I hope!CURRNT::PAYNE_ABook early to avoid disappointmentWed Jul 21 1993 10:433

766.14<Another lost horse.....?????>AYOV25::SBROWNTue Jun 06 1995 13:577
    Does anyone know if HORSE are disbanded? We went to see them august 94
    in edinburgh and at the end of the show they said they were off to the
    states (again!) Since that night, they've never been heard of. Maybe
    they'll re-appear as Shergar. He was a horse who disappeared........
        Seriously, does anyone know if they are still around?
                                             thanks, Stevie
    
766.15CHEFS::GEORGEMMenace to SobrietyTue Jun 06 1995 15:352
No use at all, but is this the band who have that female singer with the rather 
err.....powerful voice?
766.16WOTVAX::STONEGTemperature Drop in Downtime Winterland....Tue Jun 06 1995 16:276
    
    are these the same band who had to change their name to 'Horse
    (LONDON)' becaue of the existence of another band called 'Horse' - or
    are these the other band called 'Horse' ?? if you see what I mean..

766.17FORTY2::BOYESMy karma ran over my dogmaTue Jun 06 1995 16:315
Bought the album, saw them on Jools Hollands old ITV show, and never worked out
if the singer was male or female for sure: neither could my friend who moves in
transvestite/transexual circles but she suspected male.

766.18MOVIES::VERBISTFree the Files 11 ! �Tue Jun 06 1995 16:358
I saw them on the Mound in Edinburgh at Hogmanay 93/94.  At least I think I
did, but it was Hogmanay so my memory is a little hazy.  OK, that's no help
at all is it?

Sorry,

Guy
766.19CHEFS::GEORGEMMenace to SobrietyTue Jun 06 1995 16:415
Oh, right.  If the singer was of indeterminable sex, it's the one I was 
thinking of.  Once again; no help I'm a fraid.  I do remember Q (or someone) 
doing a kindof "Whatever happened to..." on them though (might have been a 
reader's letter).  I'll have a look through some of them if I get the 
time/urge...
